Lead Vehicle Concepts Engineer

3 weeks ago


United Kingdom Women's Engineering Society Full time

Description:

We’re re-examining our vehicles and what a vehicle means in the emerging world of automation, connectedness, electrification and the shared economy. New ideas, new technology, and new approaches to mobility are our business. Join a team of next generation thinkers.

WHAT TO EXPECT

We are looking to appoint a talented Whole Vehicle Concepts Lead Engineer to join our newly reformed Concepts Engineering function.

This is an opportunity to generate CAD schemes supporting the development of the upper body and under body package layouts in concept phases for all new JLR vehicles. This means taking accountability for the whole vehicle package layout. You’ll be joining a leadership team who are invested in your career and personal development. You also get to interact with a diverse range of functions. Our department also includes the visualisation team who have exposure to new leading technology and the package buck team.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

  • You will have experience in laying out upper body hard points: Occupant Positioning across all seats, IP & Console, steering column, base of screen, pedals, ingress / egress, trunk dimensioning and useability; or,
  • Experience in laying out underbody hard points: Groundlines, Attitude planes, running clearance, approach/departure, front & rear end length for Vehicle Safety / SI Requirements, key Axle points, Tyre Envelopes and EDU/ICE Dynamic motion wraps.
  • You’ll have an understanding of the interdependencies between Upper body & Underbody requirements (including Legals).
  • You’ll be competent in CAD creation and visualisation – Catia V5 & V6

As this is a newly formed team we can find ourselves meeting ambiguity at times so being a self-starter and someone who can thrive in this kind of environment along with having the confidence to interact easily with other at all levels (including Director level) will make for a successful Whole Vehicle Concepts Lead Engineer.

SO WHY US?

Bring all this to the home of premium innovation, and you’ll find the opportunities to further your career with a world-class team, a discounted car purchase and lease scheme for you and your family, membership of a competitive pension plan and performance related bonus scheme. All this and more makes JLR the perfect place to continue your journey.

This role may offer the opportunity for hybrid working where you can split your time between working from home and in the office. At JLR, hybrid working is a voluntary, non-contractual arrangement providing employees with more choice and flexibility around how, when and where they work, if suitable for their role. Further details can be discussed with the Hiring Manager at interview stage. 

Please be aware that we may close this vacancy for applications before the stated deadline if we receive a high volume of interest. We strongly advise you to submit your application as early as possible.

JLR is committed to equal opportunity for all.
