Ford’s Electric Vehicles, Digital and Design (EVDD) team is charged with delivering the company’s vision of a fully electric transportation future. EVDD is customer-obsessed, entrepreneurial, and data-driven and is dedicated to delivering industry-leading customer experience for electric vehicle buyers and owners. You’ll join an agile team of doers pioneering our EV future by working collaboratively, staying focused on only what matters, and delivering excellence day in and day out. Join us to make positive change by helping build a better world where every person is free to move and pursue their dreams.
In this position, you will be responsible for advanced development of the High Voltage (HV) system architecture in Ford’s Universal EV (UEV) platform. In this role, you will be using advanced system simulation and analytical tools to model and characterize HV system performance and check for HV and LV system interoperability by characterizing HV voltage ripple, HV isolation, HV interference on LV system, system EMC performance, etc.
As a Staff. HV System Design and Simulation Engineer, you will work with cross functional teams including SW, mechanical packaging, vehicle integration, and EPA range to characterize system behaviors and optimize system performance. You will also use simulation tools to model and design advanced HV system protection strategies to maximize system safety.
Responsibilities What you'll do
HV System Modeling
HV and LV system interoperability characterization through system modeling using system simulation tools such as MATLAB-SIMULINK, PLECS, and PSIM
Perform HV powertrain system simulation and/or co-simulation incorporating HV battery, drive unit, and other relevant components to characterize and optimize system efficiency
Use simulation tools to model and predict HV system behavior, perform feasibility studies and provide guidance to cross functional teams
Utilize HV system fault modeling techniques to diagnose and root cause HV system issues
Develop HV system control algorithms using MATLAB-SIMULINK
System simulation to characterize EMC performance of HV modules in electrical system architectures
Perform HV system Worst Case Circuit Analysis (WCCA) using proper tools such as MATHCAD
HV System Design
Define, document, and maintain HV system architecture and interface diagrams
Review HV system architecture including wiring diagrams and propose design changes to improve system performance
Support HV system development and component selection to optimize system performance and safety
Collaborate with cross functional teams including SW, mechanical packaging, vehicle integration, and EPA range to characterize system behaviors and optimize performance
Perform high voltage distribution system design and optimization
Develop required HV system protection strategies such as response to loss of isolation to maximize system safety
Provide guidance on HV system components selection (including HV fuse, contactor, etc.) to meet system performance targets
Use analytical and experimental methods to ensure HV system design meets safety and regulatory standards
Help resolve technical issues associated with integration of new HV components into HV system
Qualifications You’ll have
B.S. in Electrical, or Computer Engineering, or equivalent combination of relevant education and experience.
8+ years of experience in HV powertrain system simulation using advanced simulation tools such as MATLAB-SIMULINK, ANSYS, PSIM, PLECS, LTSpice, etc.
