  • Diagnostic Strategy : Collaborate with engineers to design, validate, and refine diagnostic strategies for systems such as oxygen sensors, EGR, and fuel systems.
  • Data Analysis : Utilize tools like MATLAB, INCA, CANalyzer, and dSPACE for data collection and analysis, optimizing system performance and drivability.
  • Vehicle Testing : Perform comprehensive vehicle testing to validate OBD functionality and emissions control under varied driving conditions.
  • Hardware & Software Integration : Support the installation, integration, and validation of new hardware and software in both prototype and production vehicles.
  • Troubleshooting : Diagnose and resolve calibration-related issues, ensuring adherence to emissions requirements and performance targets.
  • Documentation & Reporting : Maintain clear documentation of calibration processes, test results, and issue resolutions, sharing insights with key stakeholders.
  • Technical Support : Provide expertise during vehicle emissions testing and certification processes, addressing any OBD-related concerns.

Qualifications

  • Educational Background : Associate's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Automotive Tech/Engineering (or equivalent professional experience) preferred.
  • Industry Experience : 2–5 years of hands-on automotive calibration experience, with a primary focus on OBD systems.
  • Technical Proficiency : Competent using ETAS INCA, dSPACE, MATLAB, and other diagnostic or calibration software.
  • Regulatory Knowledge : Solid understanding of emissions regulations (EPA, CARB) and OBD-II protocols.
  • CAN Bus Familiarity : Experience with CAN communication protocols and tools (e.g., CANalyzer).
  • Testing & Certification : Involvement in regulatory testing and certification processes.
  • Problem-Solving Skills : Ability to independently troubleshoot complex issues and collaborate effectively with a cross-functional team.
  • Communication Skills : Excellent verbal and written communication for clear reporting and teamwork.

If you’re passionate about shaping the future of mobility, thrive on solving complex challenges, and are eager to grow in a fast-paced environment, we encourage you to apply.
