Managing a team of controls engineers for the development of controls software for conventional and hybrid CVT & DCT transmissions.
Managing a team of 25 controls engineers for the development of controls software for conventional and hybrid CVT transmissions.
Technical and project lead for the development of transmission control software: - Leading a team of 5 to 7 controls engineers to achieve project delivery. - Liaising with the business to define the system, architecture and feature level requirements. - Defining the control system development and test plans. - Setting project milestones and supporting the team in the delivery of tasks. - Controls project management (planning, quality, costs, resources). - Implementing the Model-based software development processes. - Designing and implementing control system algorithms. - Verification and validation of the software according to ISO26262 standard.
Development of the control software of a low-cost double clutch transmission: - Gathering the functional and safety requirements. - Defining a software architecture that covers the requirements. - Model-based development of control algorithms. - Verification and validation testing of software modules. Development of the control system for hybrid cars with a continuously variable transmission: - Developing and simulating control strategies for a hybrid car in a model-based environment (Matlab / Simulink). - Verification and validation of the software (unit tests, model in the loop tests, hardware in the loop tests, data acquisition on testbenches and on vehicles). - Calibration of the software parameters to obtain the desired fuel efficiency, performance and driveability.
Development of the electro-hydraulic control of a double clutch transmission for sports cars: - Translation of performance requirements of the customer and comments of the testdrivers to control strategy- and software requirements. - Characterising and modelling the physical behaviour of the clutch based on measurements on testbenches. - Developing and simulating the control strategies with Matlab / Simulink. - Coding in C++ - Verification and validation of the software (unit tests, hardware in the loop tests, data acquisition on testbenches and on vehicles, car testing on circuits). - Calibration of the software parameters to obtain the desired driveability.
