Propulsion Test Engineer

Your primary responsibilities will include fitting, testing, and optimising propulsion systems as we develop next-generation sustainable technologies.

Key Responsibilities

1. Install instrumentation on propulsion systems, including engines, batteries, and electric motors.
2. Set up and rig systems to various testing platforms such as dynamometers, battery test chambers, and other specialized test rigs.
3. Assist engineers with commissioning and preparing the device under test (DUT) for operation.
4. Operate testing facilities to measure parameters, monitor DUT performance, and optimize control settings as needed.
5. Contribute to the development process through hardware adjustments and problem-solving.
6. Demonstrate strong knowledge of electronic control systems.
7. Maintain awareness and understanding of battery and electric motor technology.

Required Skills and Experience

1. BTEC Level 3 or equivalent apprenticeship in engineering is advantageous.
2. GCSEs in Mathematics, English, and Science (Grades 5-9).
3. At least 3 years of propulsion testing experience in a similar environment.
4. Proficient diagnostic skills, especially with engine ECU and battery BMS systems.
