  • Revise powertrain control calibrations to enhance fuel efficiency, performance, emissions, and diagnostics.

  • Design and execute tests to validate engine and vehicle fuel economy, performance, emissions, and diagnostic capabilities.

  • Conduct vehicle testing and development at remote locations, including Arizona, Colorado, and Northern Canada.

You will need:

  • A Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.

  • At least 2 years of experience in Powertrain Calibration.

  • 1+ years of experience with software tools such as ETAS, ATI, or MATLAB.
