A key member of the Hypermotive Systems Engineering team, the Systems Engineer will be responsible for the derivation and management of requirements for engineering projects, using the results from calculations and computer simulations, applicable standards and regulations, and customer requirements to support the design and development of vehicle electrical systems.
You will work on highly varied projects, across a wide range of vehicles and applications (marine, automotive, supercar, motorsport, commercial vehicle, off-highway, stationary power, etc.), focusing on the development and integration of fuel cells, fuel storage, energy storage and electrical systems. Your input will directly contribute not only to the successful delivery of the project, but also support the success and growth of the business.
Within this role you will provide Systems Engineering support across the entire engineering
V-cycle. Your responsibilities will include:
- Engaging with customers and other key stakeholders to support the generation of project requirements
- Documentation, communication and subsequent management of all project requirements across the project team
- Review, understand and negotiate any trades in conflicting or unrealistic requirements
- Requirement traceability showing how requirements are intended to be met and then evidence of meeting requirement
- Derivation and decomposition of requirements into sub-functional requirements
- Verification and validation test plan derivation
- Supporting final system integration, commissioning and testing
- Customer technical support
- Project/product life cycle management
- Development of ePowertrain simulation models including electrical, mechanical and control systems
You will work closely with the other functions within the engineering team to ensure right first time, on-time delivery of the project within budget. You will support design review, team, supplier and customer meetings as required and seek to resolve any issue assigned to you in a timely manner
