Gather and document technical requirements, support project schedule development, and coordinate customer-facing track activities with internal development teams.
• Customer and Team Technical Support
  Serve as a technical point of contact at track locations for supported race teams. Diagnose and resolve system-level issues within the scope of the role and coordinate with customers and internal teams regarding approved parameter changes.
• Controls and Hybrid Strategy Development
  Develop and document control strategies for internal-combustion-engine and hybrid powertrains, including hybrid energy recovery systems, torque coordination, and related control algorithms.
• Vehicle Electrical Architecture
  Develop and validate vehicle electrical and communication network topologies, including analog signals, digital signals, CAN, and Ethernet configurations, in accordance with defined technical requirements.
• Simulation and Virtual Development
  Develop, maintain, and execute virtual simulation environments using Software-in-the-Loop, Hardware-in-the-Loop, and Driver-in-the-Loop methods to validate controls and support trackside system setup.
• Software Tools and Standards
  Develop and maintain internal software tools and scripts using MATLAB, Python, C#, or comparable technologies. Contribute to documented coding standards and software architecture practices.
• Technical Knowledge Sharing
  Provide job-related technical guidance, share documented best practices, and support knowledge transfer among engineering team members.
• Domestic and International Travel
  Travel domestically and internationally approximately 50–80 days per year to provide application engineering support at customer facilities, test tracks, race tracks, and development locations.

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a closely related field.
• At least five years of job-related application engineering experience gained through professional, academic, or project-based work.
• At least five years of job-related experience using data-acquisition and data-analysis tools to evaluate technical system performance.
• Experience applying engineering principles in professional motorsport, Formula SAE, or another environment involving comparable vehicle systems, controls, data acquisition, and trackside or field support.

• Technical Account and Lifecycle Management
  Experience in technical account management or another customer-facing technical role, including documenting customer requirements and supporting system application, issue resolution, and validation.
• Customer Communication
  Ability to communicate job-related technical information clearly to customers, suppliers, and internal engineering teams.
• Controls Development
  Experience with internal-combustion-engine, hybrid, or battery-electric powertrain controls or chassis-control development, such as traction control, torque vectoring, or energy-recovery-system integration.
• System Design and Analysis
