Stellantis' Vehicle and Propulsion Controls organization is seeking a Propulsion Controls Systems Engineer to define and deliver end-to-end propulsion system architecture for next-generation electrified and hybrid powertrain technologies.
In this role, you will translate vehicle-level feature requirements into scalable, high-performance system solutions, ensuring alignment across software, hardware, controls, and physical system integration. You will play a key role in advancing propulsion control strategies and enabling modern EV, BEV, and hybrid vehicle platforms.
The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment and is passionate about solving complex technical challenges across global engineering teams.
Key Responsibilities - Develop and maintain operational, functional, and physical system architecture for propulsion control systems
- Define system concepts, use cases, and operational scenarios for electrified powertrain applications
- Perform functional decomposition and allocate requirements across subsystems and components
- Define end-to-end propulsion system architecture (functional and physical) across ECU, sensors, actuators, and networks
- Contribute to development and refinement of propulsion control strategies and algorithms
- Support requirements engineering, system modeling, and MBSE activities (SysML)
- Develop architecture artifacts including system definition documents, interface specifications, and EE network topology
- Evaluate feasibility of vehicle-level functional objectives and provide design feedback to vehicle engineering teams
- Define and document feature requirements and system behaviors
- Develop DFMEA (Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) for assigned features
- Support planning and deliverables aligned with internal and external stakeholder requirements
Key Competencies - Strong systems engineering and architecture mindset
- Deep understanding of propulsion controls, control algorithms, and calibration interactions
- Ability to lead and collaborate across global, cross-functional teams
- Strong analytical thinking with ability to evaluate design trade-offs
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
Basic Qualifications:- Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Systems, or Controls Engineering
- A minimum of 1 year of experience in propulsion controls / systems engineering
- Good domain knowledge in:

- Control algorithms and system behavior
- Requirements engineering and system architecture
Preferred Qualifications: - Master's degree or PhD in Controls, Systems, or Automotive Engineering
- Experience with:
- MATLAB/Simulink modeling and controls development
- MBSE (SysML, Rhapsody, Cameo)
- DOORS, ALM, PLM (ENOVIA)
- Knowledge of:
- CAN /LIN/Ethernet communication protocols
- Functional safety (ISO 26262)
- ASPICE / Stellantis SE processes
