Senior Controls Engineer, EV Body and Access SystemsActive

The opportunity

At Lucid, we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucid’s proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture, our award-winning vehicles bring our “Compromise Nothing™” approach to the global automotive market.

What you'll do

  • Develop control systems for vehicle access control features; this includes: vehicle lock/unlock, access device authentication, device localization through advanced controls algorithms such as kalman filters and bi/trilateralization.

  • Develop requirements and related test cases for access control and other: assigned features modeled in Matlab/Simulink.

  • Collaborate with simulation engineers to improve or develop a simulation: model/platform to analyze, optimize, and troubleshoot access control and localization algorithms.

  • Assist in the integration of features into the controller code base. Test the: developed software on the vehicle and assist in calibration of the features.

  • Support Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) for various features to: comply with ISO 26262 standards. Develop diagnostic, communication, and other interfaces across controllers/ECUs. Work in cross-functional teams to solve controls problems.

  • Participate in the design of a world-class engineering effort to bring: electric vehicles to a new level of refinement.

What they're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree (or higher) in computer engineering, electrical: engineering, mechanical engineering, automotive systems, or related technical fields is required.
  • + years of experience with automotive control systems and knowledge of: advanced controls algorithms; experience with vehicle access/ingress/egress control features and RF/BLE/UWB technologies is a plus.
  • Expert knowledge of model-based design using Matlab/Simulink/Stateflow.
  • Expert understanding of Automatic Control Systems, with a firm grasp of: classical control theory tools like compensator design, Kalman Filtering, and PID tuning.
