Come and join JLR as an ADAS Calibration & Integration Engineer, where you’ll play a key role in shaping the future of safe and intelligent driving. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who thrives on hands‑on engineering, real‑world testing, and solving complex technical challenges that directly influence how our vehicles behave on the road.
In this role, you’ll be part of JLR’s Assisted & Automated Driving Calibration team, working within a collaborative, cross‑functional environment. You’ll take ownership of calibrating, testing and refining next‑generation Active Safety features — from Lane Keeping Assist to Emergency Braking and Collision Avoidance. Your work will ensure these systems perform reliably, safely and intuitively across multiple vehicle programmes.
If you’re passionate about cutting‑edge technology, enjoy working with real vehicles, and want to contribute to JLR’s journey towards increasingly automated and intelligent products, this role offers the chance to make a genuine impact on the future of driving.
WHAT TO EXPECT
In this role, you’ll play a key part in delivering high-quality outcomes and supporting the wider team through a range of responsibilities, including –
* Lead the full calibration and testing process for Active Safety functions, from requirements analysis and system reviews to developing and optimising calibrations across multiple vehicle programmes
* Create and maintain test plans, calibration strategies and validation methods for features such as Lane Keeping Assist, Emergency Braking and Collision Warning, ensuring strong real‑world scenario coverage and alignment with programme timings
* Support software development and vehicle integration by updating calibrations for new sensors, ECUs, software releases and changes to chassis, braking, steering and propulsion systems
* Conduct vehicle, rig and virtual testing, including preparing test vehicles, running dynamic scenarios, collecting logged data and signing off Active Safety performance using simulation and diagnostic tools
* Carry out structured root‑cause investigations using logged data, diagnostics and analysis scripts to identify issues, recommend countermeasures and collaborate with engineering teams to resolve them
* Produce clear technical reports on progress, risks, calibration maturity and performance, ensuring alignment across engineering, programme and manufacturing teams
WHAT YOU’LL NEED
The ideal candidate will have a strong mix of experience, recognised training, and capabilities such as –
* Strong understanding of systems engineering principles and the V‑Model, including requirements‑driven development, structured verification activities and thorough validation of safety‑critical functions
* Solid knowledge of Active Safety systems and their operation, covering braking, steering, and camera/radar‑based sensing technologies, along with the control strategies that enable these features to function reliably
* Practical experience working with automotive networks, diagnostics, software integration or electronic systems, with the ability to navigate complex vehicle architectures and interfaces
* Familiarity with key quality and robustness methodologies such as FMEA, P‑Diagrams, noise factor analysis and wider data‑driven problem‑solving approaches used to ensure system reliability
* Proven capability in investigating component‑level and system‑level issues using structured techniques such as 8D, fault‑tree analysis or similar root‑cause methodologies
* Hands‑on experience planning, preparing and executing vehicle tests on proving grounds or public roads, with an understanding of safe test practices and real‑world scenario coverage
* Full UK driving licence, enabling safe and legal operation of test vehicles during development and validation activities
