Gasoline Engine Calibration Engineer

Title: Gasoline Engine Calibration Engineer - In-Vehicle Job Summary: We are seeking a motivated and technically strong Gasoline Engine Calibration Engineer to develop, test, and validate engine calibration features that deliver best-in-class fuel economy, drivability, and emissions-compliant performance. While initial responsibilities will focus on feature-level calibration, this position will grow into a system-level mindset over time-using vehicle and dyno data to broaden their understanding of overall engine and vehicle behavior. This is not a "data-in/data-out" role-success requires technical depth, curiosity, and creative problem-solving to deliver high-quality, balanced, production-ready calibrations. Key Responsibilities: * Own the development and validation of assigned gasoline engine calibration features to meet emissions, fuel economy, and drivability targets. * Act as the technical owner and subject matter expert (SME) for assigned calibration features. * Perform hands-on calibration development and validation in vehicle environments, using real-world driving and test data to guide calibration decisions. * Drive calibration feature development from early assessment through final validation, including coordinating with stakeholders, scheduling vehicle access, and proactively identifying gaps. * Deliver robust calibrations across development phases, including testing in hot, cold, and high-altitude environments. * Analyze and interpret vehicle and dyno datasets to identify behaviors, anomalies, or risks within assigned features. * As experience grows, contribute observations that may indicate broader engine, controls, hardware, or emissions-related concerns. * Collaborate closely with engine controls, hardware development, emissions, OBD, and vehicle integration teams to support learning and effective issue resolution. * Work with global engineering teams to support calibration strategies that meet international market and regulatory needs. * Support system validation and launch activities, including approximately 4-8 weeks of travel annually. Basic Qualifications: * Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related field. * Minimum 5 years of hands-on gasoline engine calibration experience, including in-vehicle calibration and validation. * Ability to execute calibration tasks with limited supervision once direction and objectives are provided. * Strong technical understanding of internal combustion engines, powertrain systems, and calibration methodologies. * Experience with calibration tools (e.g., INCA, ATI Vision) and data analysis tools (e.g., MDA). * Working familiarity with emissions regulations (EPA, CARB) and OBD requirements, including an understanding of how calibration decisions and operating conditions can influence emissions performance. Preferred Qualifications: * Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field. * Industry experience in engine calibration or powertrain systems development. * Prior dynamometer calibration or testing experience is a plus. * Experience applying Design of Experiments (DOE) and calibration optimization techniques. * Proficiency in Matlab/Simulink and simulation tools such as GT-Power. * Familiarity with calibration and development tools such as PowerCal, CRETA, CANalyzer, or CANoe. * Experience working with international engineering teams and supporting global vehicle programs. * Exposure to hybrid or electrified powertrain systems is a plus.
