Job Description:
JOB PURPOSE: Develop, integrate or test complex
autonomy systems that meet prioritized requirements for autonomous machine
programs that focus on machine safety and productivity, and provide a
differentiated product value to our customers.
JOB RELATED STATISTICS: Ability to meet NPI
milestones for each program by delivering quality systems on time that meet
agreed upon features for each milestone. Key metrics include: number of total
issues for each release, number of direct customer issues and number of days
from target date.
JOB DUTIES: For Caterpillar, digital means using
technology to extract data from our machines and engines and transform it into
valuable recommendations or “insights,” to help customers make better, more
informed decisions and help Caterpillar make robust products with the lowest
total ownership cost. Our products generate and process large amounts of
data from sensors, on-board models, and control algorithms in real-time
creating real-world machine usage information. As part of the overall digital
strategy Caterpillar has developed an integrated family of Autonomous and
semi-autonomous machines. This family of products is branded Command. The
Command product range links with other mining and business information systems
and is an integral part of the Mining Technology Enabled Solutions vision.
The Automation Engineer position develops, integrates
and/or troubleshoots autonomy software systems used for autonomous machines.
This may include complex autonomy onboard system design work, subsystem
testing or system integration. It requires specific knowledge of machine
systems or automation technologies such as Path Planning, Perception and
Positioning. The position uses technical automation knowledge that often must
be combined with application/software development skills to develop high
quality automation software. This position will translate complex program
or subsystem requirements into actionable development efforts. The
incumbent will evaluate internal and external automation algorithms to decide
which are most appropriate, and develop algorithms and code quality software.
In order to develop the systems effectively, this
position must work closely with Component Hardware team members to select or
understand the autonomy hardware (ECM’s sensors, etc.) that will be used.
A strong knowledge of complex, existing external automation solutions and
algorithms is necessary to help determine appropriateness, and if new
algorithms are needed. Knowledge of existing internal automation applications
and libraries is important to drive consistency. Much development work
may be related to existing applications, therefore a strong ability to read and
understand existing software is essential to developing updates and
improvements. Both new application development and modifications to
existing code bases will be done, which requires significant software
development skills.
The position responsibilities include a strong quality
focus through unit testing of the developed code, and significant interaction
with downstream integration points including: Software in the Loop (SIL),
Hardware in the Loop (HIL), Simulation, Substitute machine testing and actual
machine testing.
Advanced data analysis and systems analysis efforts and
skills are needed to help troubleshoot complex issues from test or customer
sites, and to examine information from test sites to improve overall systems
performance.
Good communication is expected for technical status
updates, subsystem reviews, and when working closely with other system
developers, support teams and testing staff in multiple geographic locations
and organizations.
Keeping up with industry trends and new technology
breakthroughs is essential and requires continuous learning through
self/internet study, as well as interaction with other autonomous engineers
through conferences and papers.
BACKGROUND/EXPERIENCE: Requires either a:
•Bachelor degree in an accredited Engineering or Computer Science curriculum,
at least one year of experience with design development of complex autonomous
vehicles and at least one year of deep C++ programming experience
•Or an advanced degree (i.e. Masters, PhD) in an Engineering or Computer
Science related field.
Advanced degrees are highly desired. Incumbents must have demonstrated
excellent analytical skills and the ability to perform complex assignments.
Requires Linux operating system experience and a proven ability to read
and understand code developed by others. Must have strong problem solving
skills, analytical skills and the ability to communicate technical information
effectively.
Relocation is available for this position.
Caterpillar is an Equal Opportunity Employer (EEO).
