  • Support validation activities and test trips across Forseven engineering throughout the UK and Worldwide. To include aspects of hands-on vehicle validation where necessary.
  • Take ownership and drive resolution of complex issues including both software and hardware. Where necessary liaise with internal stakeholders and suppliers and utilise formal problem-solving methodology to ensure robust issue resolution.
  • Support prototype and production builds for Forseven vehicles in diverse locations.
  • Support and define vehicle instrumentation for the Electric Powertrain and wider team.



Who you are:

  • Experience around the integration and troubleshooting of high voltage and powertrain components during build, development and production phases of an automotive project. To include both software and physical considerations.
  • Demonstratable hands on experience of automative components, systems and vehicles to include high voltage system.
  • Experience of vehicle testing, analysis and diagnostics using measurement and calibration tools such as Vector CANalyzer and ETAS INCA.
  • Demonstrable understanding of high voltage architectures and underlying principles and technologies including thermal management, high voltage safety and control strategies.
  • Possession of an Electronics, Control Systems, Automotive or similar honours engineering degree. Relevant significant experience will be considered. High Voltage training to Senior Authorised Person or IMI Level 4 preferred.
