Position Description- CES ATI Japan Senior Engineer:
Key Responsibilities:
Obtains input and negotiates with stakeholders, such as team members, engineers from
other teams, technical managers, project leaders, product and manufacturing engineers,
and supplier partners and delivers information, guidance, and recommendations to
support and/or make project decisions, or to provide input related to further analysis,
design optimization, feasibility studies, or architecture definition.
Makes decisions in the areas of short term project details, such as conducting analysis,
testing, and communication with stakeholders that impact and support the successful
progression of projects at an impact level that is higher than for a senior or lead
engineer.
Applies and improves processes such as Pre Program Planning, (PPP), Product
Preceding Technology, (PPT), Value Package Introduction (VPI), or Value Package
Change, (VPC), Engineering Standard Work, (ESW), Functional Excellence Practice
(FEP) and tools related to thermal and fluid sciences such as GT-Power, Fluent,
Converge, Concerto, CyberApps (virtual application model), Cummins Data Analysis Tool
(CDAT), Mach, test data calculation, DARTS, test data storage, Calterm, Electronic
Control Module (ECM) calibration tool, Emissions data system, Integrity, and ACCEPTS
ECM in-loop test bench required to support the processes and enable high quality
decision making.
Provides independent leadership of smaller business impact projects or ownership of
complex components, products, systems or services with greater elements of ambiguity
over the senior or lead engineer level and with full accountability to the project team.
Delivers independent execution of established and emerging work processes and
systems, while still developing technology or product knowledge.
Leads the development and improvement of work processes and systems across a
functional discipline area within a business unit site.
Coordinates and directs work amongst technicians and temporary student employees,
assists in the transfer of knowledge to lesser experienced engineers through either
indirect (scope of influence) or direct management of a small, local group of engineers.
Provides support and guidance to influence technical direction within a project team and
continues to develop proficiency in the competency areas critical to success in the role.
Operates as a recognized specialist in a discipline or product area within the immediate
team.
*Qualifications and
Competencies
Competencies:
Applies Principles of Combustion and Emissions Science - Interprets and predicts the
performance of combustion systems by leveraging a quantitative and intuitive
comprehension of the conversion of chemical energy to heat by reacting a fuel with an
oxidizer, the formation of exhaust pollutants, modeling tools, controls, and experimental
tools to answer key questions about the system or component.
Applies Principles of Fluid Dynamics and Heat Transfer - Interprets and predicts the
performance of fluid and thermal systems by leveraging a quantitative and intuitive
comprehension of the flow of liquids and gases, the transfer of thermal energy between
elements of a system, and the application of modeling and experimental tools, to answer
key questions about the system or component.
Applies Principles of Thermodynamics and Energy Conversion Systems - Interprets and
predicts the performance of energy conversion systems such as IC engines, gas
turbines, fuel cells, and batteries, by leveraging a quantitative and intuitive
comprehension of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, modeling tools, controls, and
experimental tools to answer key questions about the system or component.
Product Failure Mode Avoidance - Mitigates potential product failure modes, by
identifying interfaces, functions, functional requirements, interactions, control factors,
noise factors, and prioritized potential failure modes and potential failure causes for the
system of interest to effectively and efficiently improve the reliability of Cummins’
products.
Product Function Modeling, Simulation and Analysis - Impacts product design decisions
through the utilization and/or interpretation of computational tools and methods that
predict the capability of a product's function relative to its system, sub-system and/or
component level requirements.
Product Problem Solving - Solves product problems using a process that protects the
customer; determines the assignable cause; implements robust, data-based solutions;
and identifies the systemic root causes and recommended actions to prevent problem
reoccurrence.
System Requirements Engineering - Uses appropriate methods and tools to translate
stakeholder needs into verifiable requirements to which designs are developed;
establishes acceptance criteria for the system of interest through analysis, allocation and
negotiation; tracks the status of requirements throughout the system lifecycle; assesses
the impact of changes to system requirements on project scope, schedule, and
resources; creates and maintains information linkages to related artifacts.
Systems Thinking - Defines the system of interest by drawing the boundaries, identifying
its context within its environment, its interfaces, and that it has a lifecycle to aid in
planning the problem statement, scope and deliverables ; analyzes linkages and
interactions between elements that comprise the system of interest by using appropriate
methods, models and integration of outcomes to understand the system, predict its
behavior and devise modifications to it in order to produce the desired effects.
Builds networks - Effectively building formal and informal relationship networks inside and
outside the organization.
Communicates effectively - Developing and delivering multi-mode communications that
convey a clear understanding of the unique needs of different audiences.
Decision quality - Making good and timely decisions that keep the organization moving
forward.
Drives results - Consistently achieving results, even under tough circumstances.
Manages complexity - Making sense of complex, high quantity, and sometimes
contradictory information to effectively solve problems.
Resourcefulness - Securing and deploying resources effectively and efficiently.
Values differences - Recognizing the value that different perspectives and cultures bring
to an organization.
Design and Application of Open/Closed Loop Controls - Specifies software features that
interact with mechanical, hydraulic, chemical and electronic systems to deliver desired
system states; specifies control system architectures which include appropriate
measurements, correct actuation, and algorithms for Cummins' products; configures
and/or understands open/closed loop feedback controls features and the system
interactions between hardware and software in Cummins' products.
Education, Licenses, Certifications:
College, university, or equivalent Bachelor's degree in Engineering or appropriate STEM
field is required.
Post-graduate (Master's) degree relevant to this discipline area may be required for
select roles.
This position may require licensing for compliance with export controls or sanctions
regulations.
Experience:
Prior Senior or Lead Engineer equivalent work experience in a relevant discipline area is
required with a demonstrated track record of technical problem solving and quality
decision making.
Knowledge of MS Office tools is preferred.
