Description
Hybrid: This means the successful candidate is expected to report to their primary location (Milford, MI) three times per week, at minimum.
Relocation:
This job is not eligible for relocation benefits. Any relocation costs would be the responsibility of the selected candidate.
The Role:
We are seeking an exceptional candidate to join our Active Chassis Calibration team at GM’s Milford Proving Grounds.
Our team develops and delivers world-class vehicle dynamics performance to our customers through innovative Active Chassis Controls(ABS, TCS, ESC, VAF, VdCore, VMC) controls features. The Calibration Engineer is responsible for calibrating actively controlled chassis technologies to provide safe and confident vehicle performance to the end user.
Active Chassis calibration is highly dynamic work involving significant hands-on time spent driving, evaluating and calibrating vehicles, deep technical analysis of the resulting data, and efforts to continually enhance the underlying algorithm, controls and processes. In addition to in-vehicle work, calibration engineers utilize advanced tools to achieve their goals including vehicle simulation environments, HiL benches and DiL simulators. The engineers accomplish this work among a collaborative team of peer calibrators, algorithm specialists, HiL engineers, system feature owners and performance engineers.
Candidates should possess experience with vehicle control systems, in-vehicle performance evaluation, vehicle dynamics, calibration experience in a complex technology area, along with demonstrated planning, communication, teamwork, and prioritization skills.
What You’ll do:
- Champion the safety of our employees and customers
- Calibrate and integrate Active Chassis Controls(ABS, TCS, ESC, VAF, VdCore, VMC) features to meet vehicle requirements
- Take ownership of assigned feature on projects
- Deliver calibrations according to program milestone timing
- Work collaboratively with algorithm team to identify and solve issues
- Work with performance engineers to seek feedback and ensure vehicle performance meets VTS/SSTS
- Develop common approaches and institutionalize them in Calibration Standard Work (Calibration Procedures, LADV, Deliverables, Master Calibration, etc.)
- Improve the efficiency and quality of Standard Work by systematically driving present vehicle-based tasks into virtual, HiL and CoSim workpackages
- Lead technical calibration peer reviews and leadership reviews for assigned program
- Lead resolution of vehicle, plant, service, and customer issues
- Provide input to VTS, STS, SSTS, and CTS specifications as applicable
- Ensure compliance with government regulations and GM policies
- Document and integrate Lessons Learned from development and field issues into algorithms and Calibration Standard Work
- Adhere to all safety precautions and requirements, treating safety as the top priority during all work activities
