Product Engineer

Ford's Electric Vehicles, Digital and Design (EVDD) team is charged with delivering the company's vision of a fully electric transportation future. EVDD is customer-obsessed, entrepreneurial, and data-driven and is dedicated to delivering industry-leading customer experience for electric vehicle buyers and owners. You'll join an agile team of doers pioneering our EV future by working collaboratively, staying focused on only what matters, and delivering excellence day in and day out. Join us to make positive change by helping build a better world where every person is free to move and pursue their dreams.

In this position...

We are seeking a talented and detail-oriented Requirement Modeling and MIL Simulation Engineer to join our advanced engineering team. In this role, you will play a critical part in shaping the future of virtual software validation for Chassis systems and features by building robust simulation environments, automating test infrastructure, and enabling engineers to validate hardware-dependent behaviors entirely in a virtual setting. You will work at the intersection of model-based development, software engineering, and systems integration-helping the organization reduce cost, shorten development cycles, and improve quality by minimizing dependency on physical vehicle testing.

We made history and now we work to transform the future - for our customers, our communities and our families. You'll see your work on the road every day, helping people move freely and pursue their dreams. At Ford, you can build more than vehicles. Come build what matters.

What you'll do...

• Define efficient virtual SW validation methods by integrating plant models with controller software source code.

• Develop necessary scripts and tools to automate software builds for software virtualization.

• Engage cross functional team members to coordinate on-time delivery of in-house and supplier software components to be compatible with the virtual test environments.

• Develop virtual test environments & test cases to enable testing HW dependent test cases through simulation.

• Work closely with ADAS feature and system engineers to resolve in-house software issues

• Work with the Hardware in the Loop, Software in the loop, and Model in the loop simulation teams to reduce dependency on vehicle level testing.

• Develop and maintain automation for builds, test, data analysis and reporting.
