GILLIG is the largest and most dependable manufacturer of Heavy-Duty Transit Buses in North America. Our customers are in all 50 states, including cities, counties, transit districts, universities, and major private fleet operators. We are headquartered in Livermore, CA.
We offer an excellent compensation and benefits package including 100% company-paid premiums for medical, dental, and vision for employees and their families. Other benefits include a unique 401k profit-sharing plan.
JOB SUMMARY
The Vehicle Controls Engineer II will be responsible for the development of the body controller algorithms for all of the GILLIG vehicles including the first-in-class zero-emission bus. You will be challenged to develop unique solutions for various control problems from multiple domains including electrical, mechanical, and thermal. Assignments are broad in scope and highly complex that require outstanding creativity, superior initiative, good judgement, and leadership skill. This is a hands-on position.
TECHNICAL FOCUS
Body Control System
Low Voltage Sensors and Actuators
Vehicle Onboard Monitoring Systems
Vehicle Distributed Control Systems
Vehicle Control Communications Protocols
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop customized algorithms for various components and sub-systems on the bus.
Develop functional requirements for the body controller, communication interfaces, diagnostics, and fault detection for new vehicles.
Participate in DFMEA to identify technical risks and adjust the controls logic to improve detection and reduce potential failures of the design.
Bring up the prototype buses. This requires hands-on troubleshooting, testing, and data collecting to solve complex issues.
Work with Validation team to develop test plans to ensure the design meets the program requirements.
Work with Publication team to ensure the bus manuals are complete and accurately reflect the designs.
Perform other duties as required.
REQUIREMENTS
Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering plus a minimum of 3 years of progressive engineering experience in vehicle controls development.
Ability to diagnose and troubleshoot automotive electrical systems.
Comfortable working around low voltage and high voltage systems.
Experienced with:
Ladder logic controls such as Allen-Bradley or Siemens PLC.
Software development using C/C++ or model development.
Diagnosis and troubleshooting electrical systems using tools such as function generator, multimeter, oscilloscope, etc.
Opened and closed loop control systems for sensors, actuators, body controller, ECUs, etc.
Familiarity with:
Manufacturing processes and environment.
Heavy-Duty vehicle.
CAN-Bus, LIN, and Ethernet communication protocol.
J1939/CAN tools such as CANalyzer, P-CAN, Kvaser, CANoe, CANApe, etc.
MATLAB, Simulink, and State flowchart.
8D, five whys, and fishbone process to diagnose complex issues.
Low voltage components such as circuit breakers, relays, and wiring, etc.
High voltage components such as DCDC, motor and inverter, Li battery, and high-power charger, etc.
Safety interlock loop.
Industry standards such as FMVSS, NHTSA, DOT, NFPA, SAE, NEC, etc.
ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT
Ability to lift up to 25 lbs.
Regularly required to sit, stand, and walk; occasionally kneel or squat.
Limited domestic travel.
Typical start time 6:00 AM (Negotiable).
