As a trusted partner to leading automotive, aerospace and energy, TECOSIM specialises in advanced simulations, digital engineering, and end-to-end product development. With a global footprint and a commitment to excellence, we transform complex engineering challenges into cutting-edge solutions.

TECOSIM is expanding our dynamic Engineering team in the UK as part of our ongoing growth. We are looking for a talented Vehicle Dynamics Engineer to join our Clients team based in Royal Leamington Spa. This role would best suit someone who has theoretical vehicle dynamics experience and ADAMS/Car knowledge.

• Develop and refine full-vehicle and subsystem models using MSC ADAMS/Car or ADAMS/View for multi-body dynamics analysis
• Calibrate models against test data and ensure correlation accuracy for use in performance prediction and system tuning.

Ride, Handling & Stability Analysis

• Analyse vehicle ride comfort, steering feel, lateral/longitudinal dynamics, and transient handling behaviour across a range of operating conditions.
• Conduct sensitivity studies and performance trade-off analysis to guide suspension geometry and chassis tuning.

Chassis & Suspension Development

• Support design and virtual validation of suspension (passive and semi-active), steering, and braking systems.
• Conduct Kinematics and Compliance (K&C) studies to assess bushing stiffness, camber/toe curves, and compliance steer.

Active System Integration

• Collaborate with controls and systems engineering teams to model and evaluate the performance of active chassis systems, including: Active damping systems (e.g., CDC, semi-active dampers), active roll control and anti-roll systems, rear-wheel steering and active front steering, torque vectoring systems and differential control
• Perform scenario-based simulation to assess control strategies and system-level impact on vehicle dynamics.

Performance & Benchmarking

• Define and support vehicle performance targets related to ride, handling, and drivability.
• Benchmark competitor vehicles using both simulation data and physical testing to establish performance baselines.
• Summarise findings and recommendations through detailed engineering reports and presentations.
• Interface directly with OEM customers, test teams, and internal stakeholders to ensure alignment with program goals.

Skills required

• Strong Theoretical vehicle dynamics knowledge
• Strong knowledge of vehicle Tuning techniques
• Strong knowledge of Calibration techniques and sw used in Automotive
• Good understanding of K&C axle data, Vehicle Dynamics Metrics, Targets and Testing

Experience required

• Minimum 5 years of experience in Vehicle dynamics
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, or related field.
