OBD Fleet Durability Analytics Engineer About Hyundai America Technical Center, Inc. (HATCI)Hyundai America Technical Center, Inc. (HATCI) serves as Hyundai Motor Group's North American R D headquarters, supporting Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis products in one of the world's most competitive automotive markets. Our teams drive innovation across product planning, design, engineering, quality, testing, and advanced technology development.

With our main R D campus in Michigan and additional engineering, development, and proving ground facilities in California, HATCI provides a dynamic environment where ideas accelerate into real-world vehicle advancements. About the TeamThe Emissions and OBD Validation (EMOV) team is part of the Electrified Propulsion division of HATCI. We advance propulsion efficiency and performance across Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis internal combustion and hybrid powertrains, directly shaping the refinement, competitiveness, and technological leadership of the vehicles our customers drive every day. EMOV leads local market testing and validation of engine and electrified propulsion management systems controlling vehicle emissions and diagnostics. Position OverviewWe are seeking an innovative, analytically-minded, and self-driven OBD Fleet Durability Analytics Engineer to join our team in Superior Township, Michigan. In this role, you will drive data-driven decision making for the validation of engine management and on-board diagnostics systems for pre-production vehicles undergoing extensive mileage accumulation and emissions durability testing. You will analyze CAN/XCP parameters collected from our instrumented fleet vehicles to identify failure modes, detect early indicators of component degradation, and validate the robustness of OBD calibrations and engine management calibrations.

This position offers the opportunity to work with data-intensive development programs, advanced calibration technologies, and cross-functional engineering teams. You will help shape the next generation of internal combustion, hybrid, and electrified propulsion systems through rigorous data analysis, predictive analytics, and data-driven insights that directly inform calibration refinement and vehicle durability validation.
