• Design and optimize suspension systems and kinematics

• Perform tire modeling and analysis to improve vehicle performance

• Collaborate with control and software teams for vehicle stability and control systems

• Support vehicle testing, validation, and correlation between simulation and real-world data

• Contribute to engineering decisions and system-level architecture

What We’re Looking For

• 5–10+ years of experience in vehicle dynamics or chassis engineering

• Strong theoretical foundation in:

  • Multibody dynamics

  • Vehicle dynamics

  • Control theory

• Hands-on experience with tools such as:

  • MATLAB / Simulink

  • Adams / CarMaker or similar

• Proven experience from an OEM or Tier 1 automotive environment

• Deep expertise in suspension kinematics and tire behavior

• Ability to work independently and contribute at a high technical level

• Fluent in English

Nice to Have

• PhD or advanced academic background in a relevant field

• Experience with ADAS or autonomous driving systems

• Exposure to control systems or embedded vehicle software
