About Nikhil S.
As a Powertrain Calibration Engineer at Stellantis, I actively work on shift scheduling and mapping. I learned how to optimize vehicle performance using various diagnostic and calibration tools, including INCA, ETAS, XCP, CDA, and CAN vector tools. I am committed to delivering solutions that not only resolve challenges but also contribute to improving vehicle responsiveness. My responsibilities extend to updating the entire fleet of vehicles by flashing transmissions with the latest calibration.I have completed a Master of Science in Automotive Engineering at the University of Michigan-Dearborn, where I learned about advanced topics such as hybrid and electric vehicles, thermal management, NVH, and CAE. I have also completed several online courses and certifications in MATLAB and Simulink, supply chain operations, digitalization in space research, and camera control to broaden my knowledge and skills in engineering and technology. I am passionate about automotive engineering and design and have a strong interest in innovation and sustainability. I have published a technical article in the Mechanical Engineering Forum and have a diploma in product design from the CADD Centre. I am proficient in SOLIDWORKS, CATIA, and Ansys, and I have experience in benchmarking, BOM creation, and metrology from my previous roles at Caresoft Global.
