Job Summary:
This entry level/early career professional, controls focused position tailors
electronic control systems for Cummins products. People in these positions will
decompose product requirements into functional requirements and design and tune
controls that operate on Cummins’ products in a variety of customer
applications. Additionally, there is responsibility to configure (tune), and
complete comprehensive validation testing of the fully integrated hardware and
software systems.
Key Responsibilities:
Assists with the development of electronic controls (open and closed loop)and
diagnostics for a variety of applications (internal combustion engine, power
systems, powertrain, etc). Owns investigation, problem resolution, and
documentation for these systems with guidance from more experienced team
members. Uses strong knowledge of application of controls and first principles
to guide decision making.
Assists and supports the improvement of electronic controls development
processes and tools. Processes include system specification, modeling and
simulation, calibration, Design Verification Plan and Report (DVP&R), and
troubleshooting. Application of tools for simulation, calibration, and product
life maintenance required.
Works in the translation and decomposition of requirements and voices from
customers into functional requirements for controls and diagnostic algorithms.
Designs algorithms to meet these requirements, tunes these algorithms, and
designs tests to validate performance against these requirements. Assists with
decisions in the areas of electronic and electrical controls and diagnostic
design, requirements, calibration, and test that impact the quality and
performance of individual calibrated features and/or components by using systems
knowledge and understanding of product (internal combustion engine, power
systems, powertrain, etc).
Assists problem resolution for moderately complex controls and diagnostic
algorithms, their system level interactions, and their subsystems or services
with technical complexity and ambiguity increasing as experience is gained in
the role. Responsible for interacting and collaborating with cross-functional
teams.
Contributes independent execution of established work processes and systems,
while still developing technology or product knowledge; engages with the
improvement of systems and processes.
Involves no direct management of people but could involve the coordination and
direction of work amongst technicians and/or temporary student
employees.Contributes effectively toward team goals, exhibits influence within a
work group and continues to develop proficiency in the competency areas critical
to success in the role.
