Senior Chassis Design Engineer

{ “@context”: “http://schema.org”, “@type”: “JobPosting”, “title”: “Senior Chassis Design Engineer”, “description”: “

We’re looking for a Chassis & Body Structures Engineer to join our team and help design and develop a bonded aluminium spaceframe chassis for an exciting high‑performance vehicle programme.

This role sits at the heart of vehicle engineering, working across the full lifecycle — from early concept through to validation — and collaborating closely with simulation, manufacturing and vehicle integration teams to deliver a lightweight, durable and exceptionally capable structure.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Designing and developing aluminium BIW and chassis structures
  • Applying vehicle dynamics principles to optimise handling and performance
  • Managing component packaging within the vehicle architecture
  • Integrating NVH considerations into structural design
  • Creating and reviewing CAD models and engineering drawings
  • Supporting and interpreting FEA / CFD for stiffness, weight and durability
  • Performing fatigue and durability analysis using real‑world load cases
  • Leading chassis validation and testing, including simulation correlation
  • Ensuring compliance with safety, crashworthiness and regulatory standards
  • Working cross‑functionally across design, test and manufacturing teams

What We’re Looking For:

  • Degree in Mechanical, Automotive or related Engineering
  • Experience in chassis, BIW or structural design (automotive or similar)
  • Knowledge of lightweight structures (aluminium preferred)
  • Strong understanding of vehicle dynamics and structural behaviour
  • Proficiency in CAD, with exposure to FEA tools
  • Familiarity with NVH, durability and validation processes
  • Comfortable working in structured engineering environments
  • Strong problem‑solving and communication skills
