Job Description
Job Title: Senior Control Systems Engineer – Propulsion Controls
Location: Warwickshire
Employment type: Permanent/Outside IR35
We are seeking a Senior Control Systems Engineer – Propulsion Controls to lead the development of system-level and propulsion control algorithms that deliver exceptional vehicle performance, efficiency, and drivability across hybrid, electric, and conventional propulsion architectures.
The role focuses on model-based systems engineering (MBSE), control system design, and integration across propulsion subsystems using MATLAB/ Simulink/ Stateflow.
Responsibilities:
1. System-Level Control Development
2. Architect and develop vehicle-level control strategies coordinating multiple subsystems (e.g., motor, inverter, transmission, battery, thermal, and brake systems).
3. Design supervisory and energy management controls for hybrid and electric propulsion systems.
4. Define and maintain system-level control architectures, interfaces, and state machines.
5. Ensure control coordination for torque delivery, energy flow, and system safety across the propulsion domain.
6. Support system simulation and virtual integration for early verification of control interactions.
7. Model-Based Control Design
