Senior Control Systems Engineer

If you're a systems-level thinker that loves the idea of working on a wide variety of projects, never doing the same thing over and over, this is the perfect role for you!

We are seeking Senior Control Systems Engineers to support the design, development, integration, and validation of advanced vehicle control systems. This role will contribute to the development of next-generation vehicle technologies, including electrified powertrains, autonomous systems, and vehicle platforms.

The ideal candidate will apply engineering fundamentals and model-based development techniques to create and implement robust control solutions. Working closely with multidisciplinary teams, this individual will support the entire development process, from concept and simulation through hardware integration, system commissioning, and vehicle testing.

• Develop and implement control strategies for vehicle and subsystem applications.
• Define control system architecture, software functionality, and interface requirements.
• Create control algorithms using model-based development tools such as MATLAB®/Simulink®.
• Evaluate and optimize controller performance through simulation, bench testing, and vehicle validation activities.
• Support commissioning, calibration, and troubleshooting of prototype and development vehicles.
• Participate in verification and validation efforts to ensure system performance and reliability.

• Develop dynamic models of electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, and electromechanical systems.
• Analyze simulation results to establish performance targets and design requirements.
• Correlate analytical models with physical test data and refine models as needed.
• Utilize simulation tools to support control algorithm development and system optimization.
• Conduct trade studies and performance assessments to guide engineering decisions.

• Assist in the specification, selection, and integration of sensors, actuators, controllers, and other electronic components.
• Define controller hardware requirements, including processing capability, communications, and I/O needs.
• Collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and systems engineers to support overall vehicle integration.
• Develop and communicate harness, wiring, and connector requirements for prototype and production-intent systems.
• Support system-level debugging and issue resolution during development and testing activities.

• Participate in prototype vehicle builds and commissioning activities.
• Support laboratory, proving-ground, and field testing efforts.
• Diagnose and resolve vehicle-level control and integration issues.
• Assist in test planning, execution, and documentation of results.

• Interface with customers, suppliers, and project stakeholders to communicate technical information and project status.
• Support engineering project planning, scheduling, and execution activities.
• Contribute to process improvement initiatives and engineering best practices.
• Prepare technical reports, presentations, test documentation, and design reviews.
• Provide input regarding future technology development, product enhancements, and system requirements.
• Collaborate effectively within cross-functional engineering teams.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in:
• Electrical Engineering
• Mechanical Engineering
• Computer Science
• Mechatronics Engineering
• Or a related engineering discipline
• Minimum of 3 years of experience in controls engineering, embedded systems, vehicle development, or a related technical field.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and troubleshooting skills.
• Excellent written and verbal communication abilities.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced development environment.
• High attention to detail and commitment to engineering excellence.
