Validation Engineer

Validation EngineerOn-site 100%24+ month contractThis position will support three validation engineers that have responsibility to client out validation plan, observe testing results and communicate out to product groups. This role will investigate validation options and present them to the validation team. They will be learning about virtual simulation, lab testing, on-machine testing.Responsibilities:Determine ePowertrain program risk by driving usage of FMEAs.Assist in coordinating and facilitating Simulation-Test Collaboration Workshops (STCW) to understand our ability to mitigate program risks and identify validation gaps.As validation needs become known for which there is no robust method, assist the validation engineer in developing a new validation procedures.Assist in the development of validation plans and project management plans for the ePowertrain system, collaboratively, with systems teams, lab teams, and global machine development groups to establish standard work. Activities should favor virtual and lab-based techniques.Assist in the creation of Proactive Reliability glidepathsAssist in conducting L5 ePowertrain system readiness summaries (SRS) for NPI Gates 1-6 for the ePowertrain L5 systemAssist in management of the ePowertrain NPI "Issues List"Assist in resolution of issues with L5 NPI program leads.Skills:BS degree in Mechanical or Electrical2+ years relevant experience (non academic)Hands on testing/validationSystem simulation or 1D simulationDynasty, Matlab/Simulink, GT Suite, AmesimEngine simPowertrain simAny system sim would be goodFMEAFailure modes and effect analysisRoot cause analysisPowertrain/engine experienceElectric power is perfectOpenness to learnCurious about engines/powertrain
