Role: Through this role, the successful candidate will have an excellent opportunity be involved in the design and development of controls and software for advanced diesel engine controls and/or hybrid systems controls. Responsibilities: Work with process partner teams (primarily Industrial Power Systems Division) to gather and develop requirements for the advanced diesel engines and hybrid power systems being developed for future, more sustainable, low carbon power systems. Create control algorithms/software models using Matlab, Simulink and Stateflow to meet diesel engine and/or hybrid power system software requirements. Conduct control system tuning/calibration activities on test bench and/or on test bed/machine to achieve desired system performance. Conduct sub-system FMEAs, documenting potential failure modes, identifying, and completing design and validation actions and managing subsequent updates. Plan and execute verification and validation testing for electronics/control system software in SiL, HiL or on-test bed or development machines. Troubleshoot and resolve electronics/control system issues encountered during engine or power system running. Competencies: Essential: Strong technical background (HNC or technical degree preferred in mechanical or electronic, electrical, control systems or automotive engineering) with 10+ Years of experience. Essential experience is working previously with Diesel Engines and having the Diesel Engine knowledge. Matlab, Simulink and Stateflow experience is essential, must've used it to create Control Algorithms. Significant, demonstrable experience of using Mathworks tools (Matlab, Simulink and Stateflow) for model-based software design and development to create Embedded software. This should have been gained in a diesel engine or hybrid power systems development environment. Ability to translate and develop customer requirements and objectives into production-ready software models. Knowledge of software FMEA and validation plan creation. Excellent communications skills & Teamwork Desirable: Good understanding of the off-highway industry, ideally gained through direct involvement in the development of powertrain, hydraulics, or other control systems. Experience of Caterpillar control software processes and tools. Experience of HiL test equipment and the ability to programme automated tests. Knowledge of software version control systems, ideally GiT or Clearcase. Knowledge of/prior experience of developing software to meet functional safety requirements.
