Embedded MBD Software Engineer Drivetrain Systems (SP56 / Floating-to-Fixed Point)
Location : Auburn Hills, MI (Onsite)
Position Summary
We are seeking an experienced Embedded MBD Software Engineer with expertise in Digital Signal Processing (DSP) and fixed-point software implementation for drivetrain control systems, specifically transfer case applications. The role involves developing and optimizing embedded software on SP56 (Signal Processing 56-bit) processors, converting floating-point control algorithms into efficient fixed-point code for real-time performance and automotive-grade reliability.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain embedded software for transfer case control systems, including torque management, clutch actuation, and drive mode logic.
- Perform floating-point to fixed-point conversion of control and signal-processing algorithms to optimize execution on SP56 processors.
- Design and implement real-time DSP routines for torque control, slip detection, and motor control algorithms.
- Work with system and modeling teams to translate MATLAB / Simulink models into production-ready C code (manual or auto-generated).
- Define scaling, Q-format, and numerical precision strategies to ensure accurate fixed-point behavior.
- Conduct validation and comparison between floating-point reference models and fixed-point implementations to ensure functional equivalence.
- Optimize code for timing, memory footprint, and computational efficiency within the embedded target constraints.
- Support integration, calibration, and testing activities for drivetrain electronic control modules (ECUs).
- Prepare and maintain documentation for software design, conversion process, test procedures, and validation results.
