• Ensure effective component packaging within overall vehicle architecture.
• Integrate NVH requirements into chassis and structural design solutions.
• Create and review CAD models, engineering drawings, and design documentation.
• Support FEA and CFD activities to optimise weight, stiffness, fatigue, and durability.
• Lead and support chassis validation and testing activities, including correlation with simulation results.

The Senior Chassis Engineer will have:

• A degree in Mechanical, Automotive, or a related engineering discipline.
• Proven experience in chassis, BIW, or structural design within automotive or similar industries.
• Strong knowledge of lightweight structures, ideally aluminium spaceframes and bonded architectures.
• Proficiency in CAD tools and experience working with FEA analysis environments.
• Experience with NVH, durability, validation, and test correlation activities.
• Strong problem‑solving, communication, and documentation skills within structured engineering programmes.

This role allows you to contribute directly to a high‑performance vehicle programme through hands‑on engineering and cross‑functional collaboration.
