Job Title : Powertrain Controls Engineer

Location : Seattle, Washington

Duration : Long Term

Job description :

We are seeking a highly motivated Powertrain Controls Engineer to join our engineering team. The ideal candidate will be responsible for developing and tuning powertrain control functions, with a focus on drivability, efficiency, and system integration. This role offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to advanced automotive technologies in a dynamic and collaborative environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and tune control strategies for acceleration and transient response , including gear shifts, transitions, coasting, and engine braking.
• Optimize low-speed drivability and maneuverability (light pedal response, grade performance, load sensitivity).
• Support cold start calibration across different fuel blends and altitude conditions.
• Implement and refine cruise control and altitude performance strategies (drivability, low speed, acceleration, deceleration).
• Conduct launch (idle governor) tuning for rear axle ratio ranges and transmission variants, collaborating with suppliers.
• Calibrate extended idle performance (desorb and soot management).
• Develop PTO gain tuning strategies for customer-specific applications.
• Apply torque limiting controls with brake application and powertrain component limits (gear, axle shaft, etc.).
• Support system integration , including CAN communication and subsystem diagnostic communication.
