Battery and Propulsion Thermal 1D Engineer

General MotorsWarren, MI
Hybrid

About The Position

Build 1D fluid dynamics and coarse 3D thermal models that directly impact design development, validation and eliminate hardware testing. Create simulations including battery cell, battery pack, drive units, electric motors, power electronics, combustion engine and transmission related systems. Conceptualize, build, and exercise analytical system level models for electrified and conventional propulsion systems using 1D software tools. Integrate plant models of different domains into a larger system level model capable of “Software or Hardware (SiL or HiL) in the Loop” Co-Simulation. Provide component-level and system-level design recommendations to Design Responsible Engineers based on interpretation of analysis results. Own and advance analysis practices and/or tools to improve prediction fidelity and execution speed. Collaborate with analysis counterparts across several VDDV teams representing global propulsion systems and vehicle engineering. Mentor, train and lead our TCS India colleagues as well as new team members. Provide technical leadership and problem resolution by leveraging analysis results. Participate in efficiency improvement projects, including the development of automation tools via Python or MATLAB.
