About The Position

We are seeking motivated candidates for an Electrification Calibration Engineer position in GM's Global Electrification Calibration group at the Milford Proving Ground. The position involves significant in-vehicle and lab work, along with related analytical and performance verification activities. Calibration engineers engage in cross-functional teams, are expected to handle multiple projects/priorities, and frequently need to balance planned and unplanned work. A typical week includes in-vehicle calibration & testing, lab/bench/analytical activities, and collaboration with algorithm/software and hardware engineers. This position will support electrification calibration of a propulsion system on GM vehicles. You'll deliver calibrations that ensure feature/diagnostic functionality and robustness. You will utilize system hardware/software troubleshooting skills to resolve issues and complete their calibration standard work. In addition, you'll analyze large sets of data collected during various driving maneuvers (in simulation, dyno, and vehicle), tune the system response through calibration and identify areas requiring a change in controls. Calibration engineers participate in offsite development trips as well as onsite program team vehicle evaluations. In GM’s Electrification group, calibration engineers at the Milford Proving ground are located in a unique facility dedicated to hybrid/EV development.
