Hardware in the Loop (HIL) Application Engineer #31050
Hardware in the Loop (HIL) Application Engineer, Milford, MI, General Motors. Design, set up & maintain HIL test benches to perform real-time simulations for testing SW on Traction Power Inverter Modules (TPIM) in BEV. Collect TPIM HW input and output (I/O) specs from System Engineers to create an electrical design of HIL test bench. Work with vendors including dSPACE to procure test benches based on design specs. Coordinate plant model rollout by Simulation team to support apps &features requested by user community. Design & create wiring harnesses & load boxes, & source TPIMs from HW teams & verify test bench setup for basic function. Make changes to plant models using MATLAB & Simulink & dSPACE Configuration Desk when users request minor changes to simulation. Set up & configure instrumentation including ETAS 600.1 & 592 devices, Lauterbach debugger, Intrepid neoVI FIRE2 & Vector HW devices on test benches. Configure Failure Insertion Unit HW using dSPACE Control Desk based on TPIM I/O pins & their properties as listed in Interface Control Documents & I/O matrix documents to perform Electric Failure Simulation. Master, Electrical, Automotive, or Mechanical Engineering. 12 months experience as Engineer, designing or maintaining HIL test benches to perform real-time simulations for validating interactions between SW of Electronic Control Units (ECUs), & collecting ECU HW input & output specs to create an electrical design of HIL test bench, or related.
