• Develop, model, simulate, review, and characterize combined hardware-software systems to improve fidelity and operation of automotive technologies
• Collaborate with mechatronics, software, mechanical, and other research engineers as a member of various project-focused, cross-functional engineering teams
• Produce high-quality documentation and present designs, analyses, results, and status updates to a variety of stakeholders
• Ideate, and quickly write and evaluate custom software, leveraging existing simulation tools to solve problems in vehicle motion, control, and other related areas

What You’ll Bring:

• Current enrollment as a sophomore, junior, senior, or graduate student in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Robotics Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, or a related field
• Proficiency in MATLAB/Simulink and interest in working with other software languages and tools (e.g., Python, Java, C/C++)
• Solid programming skills in problem solving, mathematical modeling, data analysis, and visualization
• Strong grasp of engineering fundamentals and calculus, and a desire to learn about new technologies

Bonus Points For:

• Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot and pursue pragmatic and creative approaches to technical problems
• Previous experience using numerical and data analysis
• Previous work/internship/co-op experience in a technical setting
• Experience working as a member of cross-disciplinary and cross-functional teams

Don’t meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that women and/or people of color are less likely to apply to a job unless they meet every qualification. At Quantum Signal AI, we’re committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workforce, so if you’re excited about this role but your previous experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification, we encourage you to apply anyway! You may be the perfect candidate for this or another role at QSAI.

We value diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for our team.

What You’ll Get:

• Experience working in a technical setting among people with a diverse set of skills and backgrounds
• A relaxed, fun environment in which to solve interesting problems that will have a direct and visible impact on the company
• Opportunity to participate in a 401(k) savings plan
• Ford AXZ-Plan vehicle discounts
• Other perks to fuel creativity such as an on-site gymnasium, free drinks and snacks, and a variety of optional team activities 

About QSAI:

Founded in 1999, Quantum Signal grew up developing intelligent algorithms and AI. As our engineering R&D services expanded, we later sharpened our focus on applications and technology related to mobile robotics, sensing and perception, autonomy, and simulation. In 2019 we became Quantum Signal AI, a subsidiary of Ford Motor developing technologies to advance their R&D efforts. We build solutions to enhance the capability, robustness, safety, and acceptance of intelligent ground vehicles and mobile robotics all in an effort to make transportation more effective and efficient for all.

Our HQ in the historic Union School in Saline, MI is the perfect playground to develop this cutting-edge technology and we’re always looking for smart folks who like new challenges, learning new skills, and technical variety.
