Job description
There are two openings for this position, what means we will hire two candidates.

Are you going to be one of the key persons to define future integrated powertrains that contribute to the global CO2 reduction roadmap? Are you passionate about commercial trucks and have experience with how they are engineered and used? If so, then a career in PACCAR’s Global Powertrain Division as a Powertrain Control Function Engineer is for you!

Within a new team of highly talented engineers you will find yourself planning and contribute to the development of the Electric and Internal Combustion Engine powertrains for all of PACCAR’s world-wide vehicle divisions.  

This position will take a global approach and requires collaboration within a diverse cross-functional and multicultural team. PACCAR is eager to advance their product line of zero emissions and internal combustion powertrains and this is a chance to take a lead role in defining that plan. You will be a key part of ensuring PACCAR products not only meet the needs of customers but also those of the climate.  
This position is located at PACCAR’s DAF Trucks office in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. 

As Powertrain Control Function Engineer you have the knowledge on state-of-art modelling techniques and control theory and powertrain domain. You are aiming to get the optimal integrational concept for the HW & SW of the different powertrain components. 

You will develop mechatronic designs in a multidisciplinary team and take part in defining the control function architecture. Additionally, you design and realize (parts) of control functions for a wide variety of powertrain systems, from full Zero Emission, hybrids, up to advanced Euro VII powertrains.

Your responsibilities:
  • Define integrated powertrain control designs and accompanying architecture;
  • Collaborate with PACCAR global teams to collect (division specific) function requirements and translate these requirements into state-of-art global controls and functions;
  • Develop control concepts in Matlab/Simulink and verify algorithms and models by means of SIL and HIL verification as well as Rapid Control Prototyping (RCP) in a real powertrain;
  • Establish a smooth interaction with PACCAR global stakeholders:
    • Initiate, coordinate and report periodically the progress of your projects; 
    • Structured handover of your control functions to the Embedded department.
  • Maintain relationships with external partners (e.g. supply base, research & engineering institutes).

Your profile
  • MSc Degree in Control Systems Engineering or equivalent
  • Experience in control function development for automotive (powertrain) systems
  • Ability to setup the relevant powertrains system models for the functional/control goal
  • Extensive knowledge of Matlab, Simulink and related control toolboxes, including RCP tooling;
  • Educated in writing functional requirements in a clear, simple and unambiguous way;
  • Preferred, knowledge on:
    • Rapsody;
    • Functional Safety and Cyber Security is preferred.

If you have a matching profile but it does not meet all the job requirements, we still encourage you to apply.
