In this critical role, you will bridge the gap between theoretical design and real-world performance, ensuring the integrity, efficiency, and safety of our low voltage power supply architectures before they ever reach physical prototypes. This position offers the chance to apply cutting-edge CAE techniques to drive innovation in automotive power management.

Responsibilities:

• Develop Power Supply simulation environment: Develop a simulation environment for power supply architectures on 12V and 48V including power supply components and required vehicle interfaces in an automotive development process.
• Component modeling: Integrate component models of power sources and energy storage into the electrical system model. This supplier-specific models need to represent electrical, thermal, and aging behavior.
• System model verification: Coordinate a structured verification process for the power supply model on component and system test bench level. Iterate hardware test results into the model environment to optimize results.
• Power Net verification by CAE: Verify power net architectures with respect to sizing, electrical functionality, and power supply safety concepts in this CAE environment.
• Interface: Interface with power supply controls organization to ensure a smooth integration of 12V and 48V power net controls into the simulation environment.
• Support the component engineers and their suppliers in developing and verifying powerful component models.
• Support the integration of the power net model into a vehicle simulation environment.

Qualifications:

• A Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Systems Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a closely related engineering discipline.
• Experience with low voltage power supply
• Experience with automotive CAE processes
• 3+ years of experience with sizing and verification of automotive electrical systems
• Demonstrated experience in Matlab/Simulink and Simscape.
• Capability to utilize AI tools and methods in the CAE process

Even better, you may have:

• Master's degree or Ph.D. in one of the aforementioned engineering fields.
• 5+ years of experience with vehicle electrical architecture and automotive power distribution systems on 12V and 48V.
• 5+ years of experience in modeling 12V and 48V electrical systems
• Familiarity with Ford engineering processes and tools, such as: Ford Engineering Design Environment (FEDE), Jama, Global Product Development System (GPDS), Jira.
• Experience with sizing and verification processes of automotive electrical systems.
• Excellent communication, interpersonal, and presentation skills, with the ability to effectively liaise between internal and external stakeholders.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
