Propulsion Controls System Senior Engineer

Stellantis' Vehicle and Propulsion Controls organization is seeking a Controls Systems Engineer to define and deliver end-to-end propulsion system architecture, spanning Design, development, defining requirements for controls strategy, EE architecture, and physical system implementation for next-generation powertrain technologies.

The role is responsible for translating vehicle-level feature requirements into robust, scalable architecture solutions, ensuring alignment across software, hardware, controls, and physical integration domains.

The ideal candidate will thrive in a dynamic, cross-functional environment, solving complex technical challenges and driving integration across global teams

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Develop and maintain operational, functional, and constructional system architecture
• Define system concepts, use cases, and operational scenarios
• Perform functional decomposition and allocation to subsystems/components
• Define end-to-end propulsion system architecture (functional + physical)
• Lead definition of propulsion control strategies
• Support requirements decomposition and system modeling (SysML / MBSE)
• Define component allocation across ECU, sensors, actuators, and subsystems
• Develop physical architecture artifacts (SEDs, topology, interface definitions, EE architecture and network topology)
• Analyze the Functional Objectives related features to determine feasibility of design and provide feedback to Vehicle team.
• Design and Develop the feature design and requirements for all assigned features.
• Design and Develop the DFMEA for all features assigned to team.
• Plan and delivery based on requests from external stakeholders.

KEY COMPETENCIES:

• Strong systems thinking and architecture mindset
• Deep propulsion controls expertise (algorithms, calibration interaction)
• Ability to lead cross-functional global teams
• Strong analytical and trade-off decision capability
• Excellent technical communication and stakeholder management

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Systems, or Controls Engineering
• Min 5 years of experience in propulsion controls / systems engineering
• Strong domain knowledge in:




• Engine / Hybrid / BEV control systems
• Control algorithms and system behavior
• Requirements engineering and system architecture

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• Master's degree or PhD in Controls, Systems, or Automotive Engineering
• Experience with:




• MATLAB/Simulink modeling and controls development
• MBSE (SysML, Rhapsody, Cameo)
• DOORS, ALM, PLM (ENOVIA)




• Knowledge of:




• CAN /LIN/Ethernet communication protocols
• Functional safety (ISO 26262)
• ASPICE / Stellantis SE processes
