Job description

For this role, we are looking for a passionate Mechanical Design Engineer with a strong interest in developing high-performance chassis systems for the world’s most demanding hypercars. You will take technical ownership of components and systems within steering, suspension, brakes, or structures, from concept through prototyping, testing, and production.

Working closely with Vehicle Dynamics, Simulation, Testing, and other cross-functional teams, you will translate vehicle-level targets into robust, validated, and manufacturable designs while driving continuous improvement through root-cause analysis and corrective actions.

Opportunities are available for professionals with more than 5 years of industry experience.

Responsibilities

• Take technical and delivery ownership of components or complete systems within steering, suspension, brake systems or structures
• Define system requirements, targets and validation criteria
• Organize and carry out component, subsystem and vehicle tests to verify function, performance and requirements
• Analyze simulation and test results, investigate failures and implement technically robust corrective actions
• Generate 3D models, assemblies and 2D drawings using CATIA V6 / 3DExperience
• Give technical support leading to successful introduction of products into production
• Support product release into production (PLM)
• Work closely with Vehicle Dynamics, Simulation, Electrical, Procurement, Prototype, Production, Quality and Aftermarket departments
• Interact with suppliers and technology providers

Requirements

• B.Sc. or M.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent professional experience
• 5+ years of R&D experience in development and prototyping within the automotive, aerospace, racing, or motorsport industry
• Strong specialist knowledge in steering, suspension, brake systems, vehicle dynamics, or structures
• Advanced CAD capabilities, including solid modelling, surface design, assembly, and drafting
• Experience working with PLM systems and change-management processes
• Knowledge of FEM analysis, GD&T, and technical requirements
• Experience taking components or systems from concept through prototyping, validation, and production release
• Knowledge of materials, surface and heat treatments, corrosion protection, and modern manufacturing methods
• Professional proficiency in English

Meritorious experience

• Design experience with CATIA V5/V6 or 3DEXPERIENCE
• Complete technical ownership of a steering, suspension or brake system
• Experience with Multi Body Dynamics and vehicle kinematic analysis tools (ADAMS, MotionView or similar)
• Knowledge of EPS controls, diagnostics or steering calibration
• Knowledge of ABS, ESC, integrated brake systems or brake-system calibration
• Experience with vehicle testing, instrumentation and data analysis
• Metrology, component inspection and measurement protocols
