Job Summary:

This position is part of the CES Controls DEF Dosing VPI Team, focusing on System Level OBD Diagnostic Development. The role requires a deep understanding of failed part performance to create robust diagnostic designs, particularly in aftertreatment DEF dosing systems, including quality, level, and temperature sensors. Candidates should ideally have a background in the 8-step diagnostic concept generation and development, along with experience in emissions control features. Responsibilities include investigating product software issues, understanding causal mechanisms, recommending solutions, and documenting outcomes. The role involves collaboration with product and software development teams to deliver verified software features and components, making critical decisions that affect software quality and performance. Additionally, the candidate will review developer and tester work to ensure efficient and reusable designs, lead projects or complex components, and enhance work processes across a global business unit. Coordination with technicians and student employees is essential, as is providing guidance to influence technical direction within project teams. Proficiency in system software testing, system composer, and Simulink is required, along with prior experience as a Senior or Technical Engineer in a relevant field, demonstrating strong problem-solving and decision-making skills. Familiarity with MS Office tools is preferred.

• Expertise in identifying and mitigating potential product failure modes by analyzing interfaces, functions, and functional requirements.
• Proficient in prioritizing potential failure modes and causes to enhance the reliability of products.

• Skilled in utilizing computational tools and methods to predict product functionality against system, sub-system, and component requirements.
• Ability to interpret simulation results to inform product design decisions.

• Experience in developing holistic product platforms that align with market-level product plans for future target markets.
• Competence in generating alternative architectures and performing trade-off analyses in collaboration with lifecycle stakeholders.

• Proficient in constructing product software using industry best practices and robust software engineering principles.
• Strong capability in verifying software updates to ensure product quality.

• Ability to develop validation plans that identify failure modes and manage product risk.
• Experience in evaluating analytical, simulation, and physical test results to verify product capabilities and validate requirements.

• Proficient in translating stakeholder needs into verifiable requirements and establishing acceptance criteria.
• Skilled in tracking requirements throughout the system lifecycle and assessing the impact of changes on project scope and resources.

• Ability to define system boundaries and analyze interactions between system elements to predict behavior and devise modifications.
• Experience in using appropriate methods and models to understand complex systems.

• Proven ability to build and maintain formal and informal relationships within and outside the organization.

• Strong communication skills to develop and deliver messages tailored to diverse audiences, ensuring clarity and understanding.

• Demonstrated ability to make timely and effective decisions that drive organizational progress.

• Track record of consistently achieving results, even in challenging circumstances.

• Skilled in synthesizing complex and sometimes contradictory information to solve problems effectively.

• Ability to secure and deploy resources efficiently to meet project goals.

• Commitment to recognizing and leveraging the value of diverse perspectives and cultures within the organization. Education, Licenses, Certifications: College, university, or equivalent Bachelor's degree in Engineering or appropriate STEM field is required. Post-graduate (Master's) degree relevant to this discipline area may be required for select roles. This position may require licensing for compliance with export controls or sanctions regulations. Experience: Prior Senior or Lead Engineer equivalent work experience in a relevant discipline area is required with a demonstrated track record of technical problem solving and quality decision making.
