The

Emissions System

Pre-Development Calibration Engineer in the Medium and High Emissions and Aftertreatment (MHED) Group will be responsible for developing and integrating system technologies including engine hardware, exhaust sensors, control strategies, calibration, and the integration of these technologies into the propulsion system to meet upcoming emissions standards (e.g., TIER4, California LEV IV, EURO7, China 6, etc.) for future vehicle propulsion applications for gasoline internal combustion (ICE) and hybrid vehicles. Projects will utilize engine, powertrain, vehicle chassis dynamometers and/or simulation/modeling to make physics-based decisions and demonstrate proof-of-concept solutions to prove Propulsion functional objectives are satisfied. The engineer act as both an individual contributor and as part of teams within and outside of the MHED group. MHED interacts with core engine, controls, regulatory teams as part of a globally integrated Emissions and Aftertreatment group as part of the larger Propulsion Calibration (PCAL) Group.

The Emissions System Development Engineer will have the following responsibilities:

Developing/modifying calibration and control concepts to support future emissions regulations activities such as three-way catalyst (TWC) and gasoline particulate design (GPF)

Diagnosing emission trace data and emission vehicle issues on test vehicles to support product development

Direct/Schedule day-to-day activities of engine/PT dynamometer or vehicle-based testing, which may include interaction with technicians and support engineers

Develop emissions systems solutions for future powertrains including system trade-offs for cost, performance, complexity, etc., while meeting all quality and regulatory requirements

Define and direct multiple externally based technology development projects at external partners to meet the critical needs for emissions system

Apply appropriate procedures and methodologies for project management (planning, scheduling, and reporting) to reach project deliverables including use of tools such as: MS Project, Excel, etc.

This position will report directly to the MHED manager and operate under the general direction of a technical lead.

Basic Qualifications:

Bachelor of Science degree in Applied Physics, Automotive, Chemical, Mechanical or Electrical/Computer Engineering

Minimum of 3 years of accumulated experience and systems level engineering skills with hardware, controls, or calibration development in the following areas: port fueled and direct injection spark ignition engines for ICE and hybrid applications, powertrain systems, and emissions systems

Experience analyzing and running various emissions global test cycles and various test cell environments as well as experience using common powertrain data acquisition systems such as INCA, CAS, AVL Concerto, TCKs, INTECRIO, etc.

Working level understanding of key combustion processes, engine hardware, thermal system, transmission system, OBD system and electrified propulsion systems

Knowledge of interactions / trade-offs between emissions, OBD, fuel economy, cost, drivability, and NVH

Able to quickly identify, root cause, and refine calibrations to improve emissions system performance and capable of providing simple explanations of complex systems / solutions

Experience with Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) proactive engineering methods

Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Strong leadership and interpersonal skills

Outstanding problem solving and analytical skills

Ability to effectively operate both independently and as part of a team

Self-motivated and proactive

Proficient with Microsoft Office Suite applications

Preferred Qualifications:

Master's degree in Mechanical, Chemical, Electrical, or Automotive Engineering

High technical and practical understanding of dyno and vehicle level testing and emissions measurement equipment including more advanced measurement systems such as particle size measurement

Strong technical problem-solving skills: experience using DoE / Proactive DFSS techniques

In-depth knowledge of emissions system architectures and various hardware & control strategies to meet emissions regulations at various levels of stringency including good understanding of new low emissions technologies: secondary air, GPFs, EGR, EHCs, exhaust sensors, DI, NOx sensors, etc.

Systems level engineering skills covering engine hardware, controls, hot end, and catalyst hardware (DI fuel injection, boosting, in-cylinder combustion, catalyst substrate, washcoat, and platinum group metal design approaches)

Experience calibrating and releasing production level emissions calibrations including control strategy development

Skilled in post processing, organizing, analyzing, and presenting technical findings to intermediate and senior management
