Description
The Role
We are looking for an experienced engineer to lead the virtual development of propulsion hydraulic systems. This person will help hardware teams make better design decisions for engine coolant, oil and lubrication, ventilation and PCV, fuel systems, cam phasers, and transmission hydraulics.


The role will use engineering models, test data, and sound engineering judgment to understand how these systems work, why they fail, and what should change. The work will support hardware design, reduce unnecessary physical testing, and provide models and methods for virtual calibration. The specialist will work closely with virtual engineering, test, hardware, controls, and calibration teams.


This is a technical leadership role. The successful candidate will set direction for future virtual capabilities, lead difficult technical work, and influence decisions across the organization without needing direct authority over the teams involved.


What You’ll Do
Use models, test results, and engineering judgment to guide propulsion-hydraulics product design, including engine coolant, oil and lubrication, ventilation and PCV, fuel systems, cam-phaser hydraulics, and transmission hydraulics.
Set the direction for future virtual capabilities, including better models, stronger engineering methods, reduced testing, virtual calibration, automation, and reuse across programs.
Develop and improve models that capture system behavior, component behavior, and the physical causes of failure; use those models to support requirements, design reviews, and validation.
Work with hardware engineering teams on architectures, component sizing, design tradeoffs, operating limits, failure modes, and design changes.
Work with test teams to correlate models, plan focused testing, and determine where physical testing can be reduced without increasing product risk.
Work with controls and calibration teams to provide models and methods that support virtual calibration and earlier engineering decisions.
Bring virtual engineering, test, hardware, controls, and calibration teams together around difficult problems; communicate recommendations clearly, lead projects that improve our engineering methods and tools.
Teach and mentor team members and customers on propulsion-hydraulics fundamentals, models, methods, and how to apply the results to product decisions.
