About The Position

About JLG, an Oshkosh company JLG began in 1969, when our founder, John L. Grove set out to resolve growing safety concerns in the construction industry. Since then we have been committed to understanding the challenges and delivering innovative solutions to the access market. We partner with customers to provide quality equipment, training opportunities and trusted support within the access industry. We are a global company, and our products—including mobile elevating work platforms, telehandlers, utility vehicles and accessories—can be found all over the world. The Sr Engineer – Controls works within engineering groups to support the development and implementation of the control strategy and sub-system requirements for advanced vehicle control systems. Controls work encompasses control strategy development and verification for engine, hybrid, and electric vehicles, for components (electronic control modules, motors, drives, engines, generators, energy storage cells, sensors, etc.), and for autonomous vehicle systems, suspensions systems, material handling systems, and other auxiliary systems for on-road and off-road applications. YOUR IMPACT: Under supervision, perform basic engineering calculations, investigations, and tasks. Deliver results according to Oshkosh and general industry engineering standards and processes. Support more senior engineers in the preparation of plans, designs, computation methods, and/or reporting. Responsible for smaller projects or sub-systems of limited complexity. May be responsible for supporting multiple projects. Work in collaboration with software engineering, and other internal engineering groups or business support disciplines as well as external component suppliers. Provide guidance or mentorship to entry level engineers, designers, or technicians working on common projects. Responsible for vehicle sub-system controls research, development, verification and validation, testing and production implementation. Support developing requirements (resources, equipment, estimates, test plans, and milestones) according to the needs of a project. Support developing control strategies in a virtual simulation environment using modeling tools (such as ADAMS, Matlab/Simulink/State flow, AMEsim, etc.) or hardware-in-the-loop simulators and transferring simulated strategies to vehicle testing and eventual production implementation. Work with internal and external (industry consortiums, universities...) project teams on advanced control development efforts and on component development efforts. Other duties as assigned. Regular attendance is required.
