Responsibilities

Controls – Specifying hardware and programming to develop functioning systems to control various electro-hydraulic systems. This could range from a damper required to change characteristics based on a series of inputs to developing a piece of test equipment to developing an engine controller. (Programming will be done primarily in C, C++, LabVIEW, MATLAB/Simulink), Functional Block Diagram, Parker IQAN, and Danfoss PLUS+1 as well as other languages as needed. Experience with embedded controls, microcontrollers are required, and model-based development is desired

Design – The integration of electronic hardware with mechanical components will require embedded systems design, microcontroller-based development, PCB layout and lite design, schematic capture (currently AutoCAD Electrical, Visio for high-level diagrams), research and development, prototyping, and production transition. The candidate should have the ability to take the design through concept to prototype and production utilizing our tools. Hands-on PCB troubleshooting and familiarity with common interfaces such as I2C, high-speed communications (Ethernet, USB), and debug/diagnostic tools are expected. Engine component analysis and calibration could be required, and experience in this realm is beneficial to the candidate

Systems Integration – Projects will often interface with non-MSI systems requiring strong working knowledge of automotive communication protocols including CAN bus messaging and implementation (required), J1939, LIN, and other vehicle networks. Experience with Bluetooth applications and automotive troubleshooting is a strong plus. Wiring harness design, construction, and hands-on wire harness experience are required. Understanding of road vehicles and mechanics is also a plus

Documentation and Records - Maintain a record of all projects with necessary documentation, drawings, schematics, wire harness documentation, and software revision history. Produce reports detailing analysis and design changes. Experience with wiring harness design, documentation, and revision control is required
