Job description


In this position...
As part of the Research and Advanced Engineering activity at Ford Motor Company, this technical leadership role is responsible for leading our research activities and developing technical strategies in the areas of energy, fuel science, and decarbonization of on-road transportation. This role is critical for evaluating current and future fuels and energy sources, and for providing the technoeconomic and life-cycle evidence required to guide Ford's sustainability goals. The successful candidate will serve as the primary technical authority on the interaction between energy carriers (liquid and gaseous), vehicle propulsion systems, and the industrial processes used to produce them.
Responsibilities
What you'll do...
  • Lead research on conventional, renewable, and alternative fuels, including chemical and physical properties, implications of these fuels on performance, emissions, and durability.
  • Lead a team conducting comprehensive "cradle-to-grave" LCAs for vehicles, fuels, and battery supply chains to ensure Ford's sustainability claims are scientifically robust and compliant with global regulations, inclusive of all propulsion types.
  • Develop/secure and use models to evaluate the economic viability of current and future fuel pathways, energy infrastructure, and associated supply chains, including a carbon abatement cost perspective.
  • Represent Ford in technical consortia and government/academic partnerships relating to fuels, energy infrastructure, and sustainable transportation
  • Partner with Engineering, Purchasing, Planning, Operations, & Sustainability teams to translate energy science and LCA findings into actionable technology strategy, informing corporate decarbonization strategy.
  • Track evolving global fuel, emissions, and carbon-accounting regulations (e.g., EPA, CARB, EU RED III, low-carbon fuel standards) and translate regulatory shifts into technical risk assessments and strategic recommendations for Ford's sustainability roadmap.

Qualifications
You'll have...
  • Masters Degree with equivalent experience in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Environmental Science, or a related field.
  • 10+ years of experience in automotive fuels, energy systems analysis, and/or industrial sustainability.
  • 10+ years of experience with the properties, performance, and environmental attributes of conventional fuels (gasoline, diesel) and renewable/alternative fuels (e.g., biofuels, e-fuels, hydrogen, electricity).
  • 10+ years of expertise with alternative fuel and energy-supply infrastructure (production, storage, and transport).
  • 5+ years of working experience with LCA methodology and software
  • 5+ years of familiarity with corporate emissions and supply chain sustainability accounting
  • 5+ years of experience managing or mentoring a technical research team, including setting research priorities and managing external contractor/consultant relationships.
  • 5+ years of prior experience engaging with industry representatives or government agencies (DOE, EPA) and national labs on fuels/energy research programs.

Even better, you may have...
  • Ph.D. or Master's degree (Ph.D. preferred) with equivalent experience in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Environmental Science, or a related field
  • Experience publishing or presenting technical findings in peer-reviewed journals, industry white papers, or conferences related to fuels, energy systems, or decarbonization.
  • Familiarity with carbon credit markets, low-carbon fuel standard (LCFS) programs, or renewable fuel standard (RFS) compliance mechanisms.
  • Experience with techno-economic modeling tools (e.g., Aspen HYSYS, GREET model, Argonne National Lab tools) or LCA software platforms (e.g., SimaPro, GaBi, openLCA).
  • Working knowledge of hydrogen production pathways (green, blue, gray) and fueling infrastructure economics.

Strong technical writing and data interpretation skills, with the ability to translate complex scientific/economic findings into clear, consumable recommendations for executive audiences.
You may not check every box, or your experience may look a little different from what we've outlined, but if you think you can bring value to Ford Motor Company, we encourage you to apply!
As an established global company, we offer the benefit of choice. You can choose what your Ford future will look like: will your story span the globe, or keep you close to home?
