About The Position

The Gasoline Engine Calibration Engineer is responsible for developing, testing,
and validating vehicle-based calibrations that achieve world-class fuel economy
and drivability meeting current and future emission standards.

The Engineer will plan, generate, and verify feature calibrations in hot
climate, cold climate, and high altitude in accordance with powertrain system
functional objectives along with generating reports to communicate the status of
the program to the larger team. The candidate will manipulate and utilize large
and complex sets of engine mapping data to analyze and solve complex system
problems as they relate to engine performance, fuel consumption, emissions, OBD,
and base engine calibration development. The candidate will work cross
functionally with engine development, powertrain controls and vehicle teams to
identify and implement calibration solutions that achieve program drivability
and emissions requirements.

The engineer will evaluate new engine and after treatment hardware and
technology for future applications and analyze, plan, and solve complex system
problems as they relate to calibration development. He/She will manipulate and
utilize large and complex sets of data and actively participate in the
development of standard hardware and calibration development processes and
procedures.  The engineer will participate in meetings with management, product
design, and systems teams and present summaries and detailed reports on specific
assignments, including timing projections. This position combines multiple
engineering disciplines to develop hardware and calibrate the engine management
system of engines produced by the company. The candidate should expect to travel
4-6 weeks throughout the year for system validation/verification.
