About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled Braking Software Controls Engineer to join our Advanced Engineering & Innovation Group within the Cummins Drivetrain & Braking System division.

Key Responsibilities
  • Design, develop, and optimize braking system application software in compliance with reliability and safety specifications.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to specify system requirements and functionality.
  • Write custom control logic and algorithms to achieve precise control and performance optimization.
  • Utilize simulation tools to create mathematical models of product systems, allowing real-time simulations to test and validate control strategies, tuning parameters, and safety measures.
  • Ensure software and systems comply with safety standards (e.g., ISO 26262).
  • Perform risk assessments and implement safety protocols.
  • Conduct MIL (model in the loop), SIL (Software in the loop) and support HIL (hardware in the loop) testing and vehicle level validation of control systems to ensure they meet performance and quality standards.
  • Diagnose and resolve technical issues in electro-mechanical and electro-pneumatic systems.
  • Develop maintenance procedures and schedules to ensure system reliability.
  • Create detailed technical documentation, including system schematics, wiring diagrams, and user manuals.
Requirements
  • Minimum of 7 years of experience in designing and programming control systems for mechatronics, electro-pneumatic, or electrical systems, motors, and linear actuators, with a strong foundation in writing custom control logic and algorithms.
  • Minimum 5 years of experience in designing and development of Braking controls software (ABS, EBS, ESC function software development).
  • Experience in use of simulation software (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink).
  • Experience in programming using C, C++, and Python.
  • Proficient in vehicle dynamics and plant modeling (SimScape, TruckSim, TruckMaker)
  • Prior experience in rapid prototype software development from concept to validation (requirements, design, testing)
  • Prior experience in production software development (SYS-SW development lifecycle)
  • Knowledge of electronics and electro-pneumatic components, and product development processes.
  • Familiarity with safety standards and regulations relevant to the product industry.
  • Exceptional problem-solving and troubleshooting skills.
Competencies
  • Product Failure Mode Avoidance - Mitigates potential product failure modes, by identifying interfaces, functions, functional requirements, interactions, control factors, noise factors, and prioritized potential failure modes and potential failure causes for the system of interest to effectively and efficiently improve the reliability of Cummins' products.
  • Product Function Modeling, Simulation and Analysis - Impacts product design decisions through the utilization and/or interpretation of computational tools and methods that predict the capability of a product's function relative to its system, sub-system and/or component level requirements.
  • Product Platform Planning and Architecting - Creates and develops a holistic product platform including key architectural feature and function variants needed to align with market level product plans of future target markets; generates alternative architectures traceable to the requirements and performs trade-off analysis in collaboration with life-cycle stakeholders to ensure a balanced and optimum platform; communicates and maintains traceable information and plans executed by product development teams.
  • Product Software Design and Construction - Constructs product software using industry best practices and robust software engineering principles; verifies software updates to ensure quality products.
  • Product Verification and Validation Management - Develops product systems validation plans from a variety of inputs to identify failure modes, while managing product risk and relative priority; negotiates product requirements against capability to guide project scope; evaluates analytical, simulation and physical test results to verify product capability and validate requirements; assesses legacy versus proposed system solution capabilities and produces recommendations with technical documentation to support product decisions.
  • System Requirements Engineering - Uses appropriate methods and tools to translate stakeholder needs into verifiable requirements to which designs are developed; establishes acceptance criteria for the system of interest through analysis, allocation and negotiation; tracks the status of requirements throughout the system lifecycle; assesses the impact of changes to system requirements on project scope, schedule, and resources; creates and maintains information linkages to related artifacts.
  • Systems Thinking - Defines the system of interest by drawing the boundaries, identifying its context within its environment, its interfaces, and that it has a lifecycle to aid in planning the problem statement, scope and deliverables ; analyzes linkages and interactions between elements that comprise the system of interest by using appropriate methods, models and integration of outcomes to understand the system, predict its behavior and devise modifications to it in order to produce the desired effects.
  • Builds networks - Effectively building formal and informal relationship networks inside and outside the organization.
  • Communicates effectively - Developing and delivering multi-mode communications that convey a clear understanding of the unique needs of different audiences.
  • Decision quality - Making good and timely decisions that keep the organization moving forward.
  • Drives results - Consistently achieving results, even under tough circumstances.
  • Manages complexity - Making sense of complex, high quantity, and sometimes contradictory information to effectively solve problems.
  • Resourcefulness - Securing and deploying resources effectively and efficiently.
  • Values differences - Recognizing the value that different perspectives and cultures bring to an organization.
