Functiebeschrijving
Within the ePowertrain Controls team, you will research, define, develop, validate, and implement cutting edge charging technologies for all PACCAR global vehicle divisions. You will take a system level optimization approach and work closely with a global, cross functional, multicultural team. As PACCAR accelerates its zero emissions roadmap, this role offers the opportunity to shape that strategy and ensure PACCAR EVs meet customer expectations and climate goals.
This position is based at the DAF Trucks division in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, and includes up to 10% domestic and international travel.
Key Contributions:
- Lead the full lifecycle of the EV charging system, ensuring safety, performance, and compliance;
- Define and manage system level architecture for high power charging across global platforms;
- Work with suppliers and Purchasing to align scope, manage deviations, and secure release documentation;
- Support scope definition and resource planning, including NRE, capital, and FTE estimates;
- Develop and track system development plans, coordinating prototype hardware/software testing;
- Manage system level QCTP metrics and ensure targets are met;
- Lead Safety Design Reviews for the charging system and its subcomponents;
- Define and oversee implementation of diagnostic concepts;
- Create validation plans to ensure performance, reliability, and global interoperability.
Jouw profiel
You hold an MSc in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering (or a related field) and bring at least five years of experience in new product development and system engineering, ideally within EV or automotive charging systems. You have a proven ability to translate system level requirements into clear architectures, oversee integration and validation activities, and effectively manage suppliers throughout the development lifecycle.
Additional Skills & Experience:
- Strong knowledge of EV systems, including high voltage components, lithium ion batteries, and high power charging;
- Experience managing full system lifecycles: risk mitigation, Safety Design Reviews, and diagnostic concepts;
- Familiarity with gated development processes and resource planning (NRE, capital, FTE);
- Ability to create and manage QTCP metrics to ensure delivery on cost, quality, schedule, and performance;
- Experience leading cross functional teams and collaborating with global suppliers on integrated solutions;
- Strong analytical skills and engineering judgment; able to work independently and drive system development;
- Willingness to travel domestically and internationally up to 10%.
If you have a matching profile but it does not meet all the job requirements, we still encourage you to apply.
