The Torque Security VRT (Vehicle Reaction Test) Engineer is responsible for designing, coordinating and conducting the Torque Security safety audit for new powertrain applications for both spark ignited engines and electrified powertrain systems. The Engineer will plan, then conduct or supervise, a highly detailed series of electrical and CAN fault injections designed to test the Torque Security system's capacity to detect failures and perform the necessary remedial action. The engineer will generate reports, conduct test concern reviews with feature calibrators, and assist in investigations into software/logic errors uncovered during testing. The Engineer will manipulate and utilize large and complex sets of engine mapping data to analyze and solve complex system problems as they relate to functional safety, will work cross functionally with engine development, powertrain controls and vehicle teams to identify solutions that achieve program requirements. The candidate should expect to travel 1-3 weeks throughout the year for system validation/verification. The VRT core test team is located at Chelsea Proving Grounds in Michigan but assists and trains other regions around the world to perform this vital function.
