Description
As a Manufacturing Diagnostics Engineer, you will be a part of the team that executes processes to bring up, validate, test, and troubleshoot the company’s vehicle as well as implements diagnostic systems / infrastructure. You will develop and improve our processes for testing the electrical and firmware systems of a vehicle to perform the End-of-Line diagnostics in the manufacturing process.
Responsibilities
Serve as the first line of defense for all electrical and functional issues on the manufacturing line including but not limited to software / firmware, harness, networking (CAN, LIN, Automotive and Standard Ethernet, GMSL, etc.), hardware, and infrastructure issues.
Validate vehicle behavior, triage issues, identify root causes, and lead resolutions (pertaining to software, tooling, deploy, harness, hardware, etc.) during vehicle manufacturing testing, bring-up, firmware updates, and calibration.
Work closely with multidisciplinary engineers to collect and interpret the component and vehicle level requirements and translate them into scalable system-level validation test scripts and test cases to be performed during the vehicle integration process.
Develop and implement a system to manage End-of-Line (EOL) test equipment and perform diagnostics on the data collected by EOL systems.
Build test plans and test coverage for vehicle production, incorporating vehicle behaviors, functionalities, and manufacturing cycle times
Design and implement future manufacturing lines involving the next generation diagnostic architecture to support higher volume production
Develop and implement a novel diagnostic system using programming, networking, and operating system knowledge to bring up / test vehicle Electronic Control Units (ECUs) firmware and Primary Control Units (PCUs) software during manufacturing processes.
Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in a relevant area such Electrical Engineering or Computer Science.
