About The Position

Stellantis Propulsion is seeking an xIL Plant Modeling and Integration Engineer to join the PRSW/HIL Plant Modeling Team (XPMD). The role focuses on developing plant models, including reducing models for use on HIL systems and adding library models to the plant-model repository, and integrating models into MIL, SIL, and HIL environments. The engineer will work with HIL systems and MIL/SIL systems developed using Soft ECUs, Virtual ECUs, and plant models. The role primarily interfaces with the xIL Systems team to troubleshoot during test-property commissioning. The engineer will collaborate with global teams across North America, EMEA, APAC, and LATAM in a fast-paced environment, with interdisciplinary work involving powertrain ICE, HEV, and BEV systems. Additional work includes benchmarking, evaluating new xIL technologies, coordinating with suppliers on plant-model requirements, and collaborating on processes, methodologies, and tools.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
• Minimum of 5 years of experience in the automotive industry and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL).
• Experience with plant and controller modeling, simulation, development, and testing.
• Experience in Model-Based Development on a powertrain application; Matlab-Simulink, Stateflow, or SimScape preferred.
• Knowledge and experience with powertrain ICE, HEV, and BEV systems.
• Demonstrated experience with HIL systems, such as dSPACE, ETAS, or NI.
• Experience with C/C++ code generation.
• Experience with 1-D physical modeling tools such as GT Power or AMESim and co-simulation tools.
• Outstanding interpersonal and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to work directly with individuals and groups.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills.
• Self-starter able to work cross-functionally.
• Strong team-player orientation, systems focus, and interdisciplinary experience.

Nice To Haves

• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
• Working experience in Model-Based Development with Matlab/Simulink/Stateflow/Simscape.
• Knowledge of vehicle dynamics, thermal modeling, 1D models, and specific simulation software.
• Knowledge of HIL and closed-loop plant models executing in real-time environments.
• Experience working within an AGILE or Scrum framework.
• Ability to adapt to changing environments with minimal effect on productivity.
• Strong understanding of embedded-software development.
• Ability to communicate effectively across multiple levels of management.
• Experience with data acquisition and analysis tools such as ETAS-INCA or Vector.

Responsibilities

• Develop plant models, including reducing plant models for use on HIL systems.
• Populate the plant-model repository with library models.
• Integrate plant models into MIL, SIL, and HIL environments.
• Troubleshoot with the xIL Systems team during commissioning of test properties.
• Conduct benchmarks and evaluate new xIL technologies.
• Interface with suppliers regarding plant-model requirements.
• Work with teams on processes, methodologies, and tools.
