Job summary

Renault Nissan Technology & Business Centre India in Chennai seeks a suspension design engineer to define geometry for passenger cars and ensure chassis integration. You will deploy axle and suspension parts, size components via load cases, and plan vehicle-level tests to validate kinematics and steering response.

The role requires expertise in ADAMS/SHARK/MADA simulations, CATIA, and VBA scripting, with a focus on ride comfort and cross-functional collaboration with software and manufacturing

Responsibilities

• To define suspension geometry, vehicle transversal, longitudinal and vertical construction for passenger cars
• To Ensure convergence of Chassis Integration and Synthesis
• To Pilot the deployment of Axle and Suspension Parts - in compliance with design requirements
• To define right sizing of axle and suspension parts through load case deployments and simulations
• Testing and Validation: Plan and execute Vehicle level tests on proving grounds or rigs to measure suspension kinematics, compliance, and steering response.
• Tuning and Optimization: To support R&H team to Fine-tune chassis components - such as dampers, springs, anti-roll bars, and tires to match design targets and user comfort.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work with software, hardware, and manufacturing teams to integrate control strategies for braking, steering, and stability systems.
• Deep understanding of vehicle mechanics, tire modelling, suspension design, and data analysis
