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
