R&D Engineer(Function Development-HP)
Summary
Develops and validates heat-pump systems and components, leading DFMEA and ensuring performance meets internal/external requirements.
What we achieve together
- Analyze system and stakeholder requirements and translate them into robust function concepts and technical specifications, considering functional architectures as well as corresponding hardware and software architectures.
- Methodically evaluate alternative function concepts with respect to performance, time, cost, and implementation effort.
- Develop function prototypes on both hardware and software level based on defined function concepts.
- Define, plan, and execute single‑function tests for according to function concepts. during the development phase for concept validation, and during series implementation for verification and release.
- Calibrate appliance functions (software parameter) and derive structured parametrization guidelines for development, testing, and series application.
- Take continuous end‑to‑end (E2E) responsibility for dedicated function clusters within a platform‑based development approach.
What makes us successful together
- Engineering degree (Bachelor or Master), preferably with a focus on Control Theory and preferably Thermodynamics.
- Ideally several years of professional experience in development of air‑to‑water heat pump (AWHP) systems (or similar technical solutions)
- Sound knowledge of development methods and processes, including technical specifications,FMEA,hardware and software prototyping (including simulations) and test and verification planning
- Experience with relevant development tools, preferably: Polarion,MATLAB / Simulink, Rapid Control Prototyping (RCP) environments (e.g. dSPACE ControlDesk)
