In this position...

The Staff Powertrain Electromagnetics Design Engineer is responsible for the electromagnetic design of powertrain systems, including electric motors, generators, power electronics, owning electromagnetic design direction from concept through high volume production.

The Staff Powertrain Electromagnetics Design Engineer is responsible for the electromagnetic design of powertrain systems, including electric motors, generators, power electronics, owning electromagnetic design direction from concept through high volume production.

What you'll do...

Design cutting-edge electric motors and generators for mass-market adoption, from concept through high volume production

Own electromagnetic performance targets across the operating envelope - torque, power, efficiency, thermal limits, and NVH/torque-ripple - optimizing loss mechanisms to maximize efficiency and range

Drive design decisions with electromagnetic modeling and simulation (2D/3D FEA, loss/efficiency mapping, demagnetization, multi-physics), then build and test to prove performance on the bench and in the vehicle

Collaborate with peers across disciplines - mechanical, thermal, controls, power electronics, manufacturing, and quality - to deliver high performance, manufacturable designs and a profound customer experience

Provide technical leadership and build out the motor design team

Partner with our world-class engineering team and global supply base to achieve industry leading performance and cost
