About The Position

We made history and now we work to transform the future – for our customers, our communities and our families. You'll see your work on the road every day, helping people move freely and pursue their dreams. At Ford, you can build more than vehicles. Come build what matters. In this position... As an Advanced Emissions Systems Engineer, you will lead the concept definition, design, and integration of cutting-edge emissions systems for the 6.7L Scorpion diesel engine. The primary focus will be developing hardware and software strategies to achieve the 31MY Bin75 compliance. You will serve as a technical lead, balancing cross-functional trade-offs between mechanical, electrical, and chemical domains to deliver an optimized, durable propulsion system.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related Systems Engineering field.
5+ years of experience in propulsion or diesel emissions system design and integration.
3+ years of experience with Systems Engineering principles and quality tools (e.g., DFMEA, Boundary Diagrams, P-Diagrams).
1+ years of project management experience

Nice To Haves

Master’s degree or PhD in Engineering.
Strong project management skills with the ability to coordinate complex technical workstreams.
Direct experience with emissions regulations, compliance and testing.
In-depth understanding of powertrain architectures and their specific impact on emissions (e.g., cold-start management, thermal transients).
Experience leading cross-functional technical trade-offs in a high-volume production environment.
Cross-domain familiarity with engine controls, mechanical packaging, and catalyst chemistry.
Knowledge of milestones and delivery to both GTDS and GPDS
Demonstrated experience with 1D modeling tools and methodology. (e.g., GT-Suite, MATLAB/Simulink)

Responsibilities

System Design & Integration: Lead the definition and design of new emissions concepts, integrating hardware, controls, and packaging across the engine, transmission, generator, and aftertreatment systems.
Cross-Functional Leadership: Coordinate subsystems and lead technical trade-off discussions across different engineering domains to achieve an optimized system-level solution ensuring emissions and CO2 compliance while meeting key customer performance/towing/cost/reliability requirements.
Project Management: Drive project milestones and workstream coordination using the Global Technical Development System (GTDS) to ensure timely delivery of project goals.
Quality & Systems Engineering: Develop and maintain core systems engineering and quality documentation, including Boundary Diagrams, P-Diagrams, and Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA).
Requirements Management: Define attribute targets and cascade system/subsystem requirements, functions, and use cases to ensure compliance throughout the vehicle's full useful life.
Collaboration: Develop strong working relationships with key cross-organizational partners including forward model engineering/calibration, vehicle teams, key suppliers and consultancies, planning, other supporting organizations.
