We are at a pivotal time in our industry where simulation techniques are paving the way towards a digital revolution of our engineering tools and systems. As we transform and drive new software content for our vehicles, our vision is one that strongly augments simulation techniques with Artificial Intelligence (AI). This will enable maximum efficiency, increased robustness, optimized workflows, all scalable.
Towards this goal, we are creating dedicated teams to focus on AI, data analytics, simulation, and automation frameworks for hardware, software and system design and development.
This role is key and is specifically critical to embedding advanced data analytics in our models that will be key to robust AI and optimization implementations.
What You’ll Do (Key Responsibilities)
- Use data analytics and signal processing to analyze simulation output data using techniques like wavelet transforms and motif discovery (or other).
- Develop custom feature extraction methods for predictive modeling then used in optimizations.
- Apply statistical methods, anomaly detection, and clustering to uncover patterns.
- Work with large scale data sets and collaborate with experts in our team to incorporate physical interpretations of insights.
- Create interactive data Visualizations to communicate and interpret.
- Help build ML models that may be used as surrogates in simulations.
- Use your expertise to prototype new data driven solutions that fit our goals as they evolve and we future proof our technology stacks.
- Challenge the status quo continuously, with a main aim being to further our understanding of our data.
- Master ambiguity in a way that can leverage creative insights while remaining grounded in your deliverables.
- Lead and mentor others in the team towards a common goal.
