Senior Chassis Design Engineer

As a Senior Chassis Engineer, you will drive the design, development, and execution of novel chassis components and sub-systems—including brakes, steering, wheels, tires, and suspension platforms. You will bridge first-principles engineering with advanced manufacturing techniques to optimize driving dynamics, efficiency, structural mass, and cost. Working across concept development, physical/virtual validation, and full-vehicle testing, you will play a central role in delivering best-in‑class vehicle attributes for our next‑generation vehicle portfolio.

• Design and develop novel chassis concepts (brakes, steering, suspension, wheels, and tires) that balance driving dynamics, vehicle mass, cost, efficiency, manufacturability, and serviceability.

• Challenge legacy design requirements and define data‑driven, first‑principles specifications for system sizing, functional performance, and safety attributes.
• Align system performance targets with regulatory standards, customer requirements, and vehicle dynamics.

• Evaluate and validate the manufacturing, assembly, and service feasibility of proposed designs in close collaboration with manufacturing, service, and launch teams.
• Utilize advanced engineering analysis tools to simulate, stress‑test, and iterate design proposals prior to physical build.

• Lead the design, build, and validation testing at the components, sub‑systems, and full‑vehicle level.
• Conduct both subjective and objective evaluations of braking, steering, ride, and handling attributes across production vehicles, prototype test mules, and driver‑in‑the‑loop simulators.
• Analyze test data to troubleshoot root causes, iterate designs, and refine vehicle performance attributes.

• Education:
  
  Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
• Experience:
  
  3+ years of automotive engineering experience (or related mobility sector), with exposure to electric vehicle (EV) platforms preferred.
• Technical Mastery:
  Solid foundation in core engineering principles (statics, dynamics, materials, thermal) and their practical application to complex vehicle systems and manufacturing processes.
• CAD Capability:
  Strong proficiency in 3D CAD modeling (3
  
  DEXPERIENCE preferred).
• Communication &
  
  Collaboration:
  
  Excellent written and verbal technical communication skills, with a track record of effective cross‑functional partnership.

• Electromechanical Design:
  Experience designing, prototyping, and validating electromechanical chassis systems.
• Full Lifecycle
  
  Experience:
  
  Demonstrated history of bringing chassis systems from initial concept through design freeze, validation, and full‑volume production delivery.
• Vehicle Dynamics Expertise:
  Deep knowledge of chassis architectures, kinematics, elastokinematics, and vehicle dynamics fundamentals.
• Design for Manufacturing & GD&T:
  Advanced understanding of manufacturing and assembly processes (castings, forgings, stampings, extrusions) and technical drawing practices (GD&T per ASME standards).
• Tools & Process:
  Proficiency with agile project tracking and technical documentation tools (e.g., Atlassian JIRA, Confluence).
