What are the responsibilities and job description for the CPI Technical Specialist position at Cummins Inc.?
CPI Technical Specialist
Description
We are looking for a talented CPI Technical Specialist to join our team specializing in Engineering for our Business Segment or Corporate Organization in Columbus, Indiana/ Your home office.
In this role, you will make an impact in the following ways:
- This applied science position applies chemical principles that create and develop product functionalities which are integrated and sold into Cummins' products. The position involves the research, design, analysis, testing and failure analysis of chemical based products, including catalyts, substrates,sensors, batteries and fuel cells.
- 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.
- 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 (see "competencies" below).
- Operates as a recognized specialist in a discipline or product area within the immediate team.
Qualifications
To be successful in this role you will need the following:
Skills/Qualifications-
- Accelerated Aging Testing and Analysis of Chemical Systems - Designs and constructs laboratory equipment to simulate various aging exposures relevant to practical applications of active chemical components, including thermal cycling, chemical poisoning, and physical masking.
- Characterization of Chemical Systems - Designs and conducts tests of physicochemical properties, for example morphology, acid-base and redox properties, diffusion characteristics, impedance behaviors, solubility, and chemical poisoning, in order to aid in diagnostics and prediction of performance and health of chemically active components.
- Chemical or Electrochemical Performance Testing - Designs tests measuring chemical transformation of species, selectivity, electric yield, response to chemical and physical environments in order to determine performance, durability, or state of health of chemically or electrochemically active components; examines and interprets test data using analysis methods to draw conclusions that influence hardware and controls design decisions and to provide information for computational tools development.
- 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.
- Product Verification and Validation Management - Develops product systems validation plans from a variety of inputs to identify failure modes, while managing product risk and relative priority; negotiates product requirements against capability to guide project scope; evaluates analytical, simulation and physical test results to verify product capability and validate requirements; assesses legacy versus proposed system solution capabilities and produces recommendations with technical documentation to support product decisions.
- 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.
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.
- Design, development and sizing of catalyst technologies for on and off highway applications for variety of applications, regions and emission regulations.
- Support next generation catalyst technology development for H2 ICE in collaboration with suppliers, R&T, Components BU and regional teams around the world
- Work with global catalyst suppliers on new and existing technology, generate requirements and collaborate with wider CMI teams on component release process.
- Partner with sourcing and supply chain on catalyst component related activities
- Support catalyst development for diesel, NG, gasoline, H2, and mild/strong hybrid technologies for all global regions.
- Partner with performance, integration, system design and other program teams to advance components past E/D/L/P phase for VPI programs.
- Support current product issues and supply chain constraint projects that need rapid turnaround to main supply continuity.
Compensation and Benefits-
Base salary rate commensurate with experience. Additional benefits vary between locations and include options such as our 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan, Cash Balance Pension Plan, Medical/Dental/Life Insurance, Health Savings Account, Domestic Partners Coverage and a full complement of personal and professional benefits.
