What you'll do
You will join a highly dynamic team working on new technologies across hybridized ICE calibration, fuel cell development, passenger car and heavy-duty automotive development.
Your primary objective will be to work closely with our customers to develop, test, and optimise the performance and ensure the safe operation of their future powertrains and vehicle programs, across the hybrid working environment in the AVL office and on-site at the customer.
You will be expected to take responsibility for requirement definition, simulation/modelling activities, and planning/execution of test work on component, engine, powertrain, and virtual testbeds. Clear and concise data analysis and reporting/recommendations to customer teams is critical.
What you need
Essential:
Minimum of 2:1 or a Master’s degree in a relevant engineering area (Mechanical, Automotive, etc)
Excellent analytical skills with ability to summarise and make clear technical recommendations across multifunctional disciplines with supporting data
Excellent understanding of electrification and hybridization technologies and operation
Experience of engine software or calibration development processes and working knowledge of calibration tools such as ETAS Inca, ATI Vision etc.
Knowledge of calibration and data analysis tools such as AVL Concerto, CANape, AVL CAMEO, DIAdem etc.
Self-starter with the ability work with high level instruction, minimal detail breakdown and to be able to seek out relevant information, data and support from other engineering groups
Ability to communicate technical information effectively, both written and verbal, with AVL and customer team members, as well employees in other, customers, suppliers, and the global AVL team
Flexibility to work/travel across multiple projects/locations
Full UK Driving License
Preferable:
Experience of electrification, e.g. hybrid calibration, battery and fuel cell technology, and an appreciation of future industry trends
Experience in powertrain thermal management
Experience of functional safety function definition and calibration
Engine test cell operation, DoE test design and data capture
Appreciation/experience of powertrain simulation techniques (e.g. Matlab, Simulink, AVL CRUISE™ M) across virtual development, verification, and validation techniques
Excellent understanding of gasoline and diesel internal combustion engine performance and fundamentals, including modern Exhaust Aftertreatment Systems, and future industry trends
