**Staff Engineer Design - Enhanced Chassis Control (Hybrid)**


Join our team as a **Staff Engineer Design - Enhanced Chassis Control** at our new research and development facility in the Phoenix, AZ area. The facility will serve as a satellite of our Product Development Center in Wauwatosa, WI.


**Job Summary**


Join our team as a Staff Design Engineer focused on Enhanced Chassis Control (ECC) technologies. This position will be responsible for overall ownership of the motorcycle electrical system relating to design functions at the vehicle level for Enhanced Chassis Controls, acting as the owner of their design from concept and evaluation to production launch and in-field quality control.


The Enhanced Chassis Control system includes delivery of rider safety enhancements and cornering rider safety enhancements for the motorcycle. These are a collection of technologies designed to match motorcycle performance to available traction during acceleration, deceleration and braking. The systems are designed to aid the rider in controlling the vehicle while accelerating and braking in a straight line or while in a turn. Specific functions include: Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Electronically Linked Braking (ELB), Drag-Torque Slip Control (DSCS), Traction Control Systems (TCS) and Vehicle Hold Control (VHC).


Details of these functions on our currently released motorcycles are reviewed in the following video: H-D Rider Safety Enhancement (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDQ6-c5fWV8) .
