Technical Specialist, Chassis Electronics Architecture and Controls 

As a Technical Specialist in Chassis Electronics Architecture & Controls, you will architect, design, develop, and deliver solutions spanning multiple control systems responsible for Chassis and Vehicle Dynamics functions. You will work closely with cross-functional engineering teams to develop world-class vehicle dynamics control systems and features from concept through production. 
 
The Role:  

• Develop and maintain the architecture of electronic chassis control systems, including functional and electrical integration, from concept through SOP across multiple vehicle programs. 

• Collaborate with internal teams including Vehicle Controls, Vehicle Dynamics, ADAS, Low Voltage Electronics, Functional Safety, and Cybersecurity, as well as external suppliers, to design, develop, and deliver chassis control systems. 

• Drive initiatives to improve system performance, robustness, diagnostics, serviceability, reusability, and customer satisfaction across multiple chassis systems. 

• Create, execute, and document system-level design verification and validation plans, including virtual, HiL, and vehicle-based testing activities, to mature concepts and prototype software into production-ready solutions. 

• Lead and contribute to multiple complex projects in a fast-paced and demanding environment. 

• Travel domestically and internationally as required. 

Qualifications:  

• 7+ years of experience in the automotive industry. 

• Proven experience in the development, integration, and delivery of control systems. 

• Strong understanding of vehicle dynamics, autonomous vehicle control requirements, and functional safety principles. 

• Hands-on experience with prototype development, integration, and testing. 

• Familiarity with software and controls development tools and methodologies, including MATLAB, Python, CAPL scripting, and model-based development. 

• Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, with a solid understanding of automotive communication networks and electrical systems. 

Advantageous:  

• Excellent problem-solving skills with the ability to apply first-principles thinking and data-driven decision-making. 

• Demonstrated ability to drive continuous improvement of technical solutions, methodologies, and development processes. 

• Strong analytical mindset with a rigorous, fundamentals-based approach to problem solving. 

• Experience with Vector tools such as CANape, CANalyzer, CANoe, and vCDM/CDM Studio. 

 
Education: 

• Bachelor's degree in a relevant Engineering or related technical discipline is required.  Master's degree or higher education is preferred.
