Job Summary

The Engineer is responsible for the design, development, testing, and troubleshooting of vehicle systems and applications, with a strong focus on simulation for Electric Vehicles (EVs). This role collaborates closely with cross-functional teams to ensure software and system performance, reliability, security, and scalability.

In addition, the engineer mentors junior team members, contributes to advanced simulation methodologies, and supports the development of high-quality software solutions through best practices in documentation, validation, and continuous improvement.

Essential Duties

  • Develop and maintain EV and connected vehicle simulation models using MATLAB/Simulink or similar tools
  • Generate system and component requirements based on simulation outcomes such as energy, thermal, and dynamic performance
  • Create plant models, virtual ECUs, and subsystem simulations to support SIL/HIL testing and model-based design workflows
  • Apply modeling best practices and standards to ensure model fidelity, maintainability, and performance efficiency
  • Evaluate and implement simulation tools, frameworks, and methodologies to enhance engineering workflows
  • Integrate advanced technologies such as AI and machine learning into simulation strategies
  • Collaborate with controls, embedded software, backend, and cloud teams to support system-level optimization
  • Troubleshoot software and system integration issues across vehicle platforms
  • Resolve complex technical challenges in simulation development and deployment
  • Improve engineering processes through standardized documentation and automation tools
  • Support system configuration, training, and technical setup as required
  • Participate in cross-functional technology development initiatives
  • Travel for engineering and project support as needed

Required Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities

Technical Knowledge & Documentation

  • Strong understanding of EV systems, vehicle dynamics, and connected vehicle architectures from a modeling perspective
  • Ability to translate system requirements into simulation specifications, validation metrics, and performance targets
  • Proficiency in technical documentation including model specifications and validation frameworks

Software Design & Implementation

  • Expertise in model-based design, plant modeling, SIL/HIL workflows, and simulation automation
  • Proficiency with MATLAB/Simulink and related development tools
  • Familiarity with software standards and best practices for model development and validation

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
