Hiring: Automotive CAE Engineer – Vehicle Dynamics

We are looking for an experienced Automotive CAE Engineer – Vehicle Dynamics to support vehicle development through virtual simulations, suspension and steering analysis, and ride and handling performance optimization.

The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience with automotive simulation tools and a strong understanding of vehicle dynamics, suspension systems, and steering performance.

Key Responsibilities

- Perform virtual analysis and optimization of suspension and steering systems, including kinematics and compliance (K&C;).
- Analyze vehicle ride, handling, stability, and steering response under different driving conditions.
- Conduct simulations for vehicle handling events, including step steer, slow ramp steer, fish-hook maneuvers, and off-road driving.
- Evaluate ride comfort and vibration-related issues, including impact harshness, vehicle pitch, shimmy, wander, and brake judder.
- Develop, validate, and maintain full-vehicle and subsystem simulation models.
- Perform component load calculations and support suspension and steering component development.
- Support physical vehicle testing and prototype tuning by correlating simulation results with presente vehicle performance.
- Develop and improve CAE simulation processes and automation routines.




- Present technical findings and design recommendations to management and cross-functional engineering teams.

Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, or a related field.
- Strong understanding of vehicle dynamics theory and automotive suspension and steering systems.
- Hands-on experience with vehicle dynamics simulation, ride and handling analysis, and suspension/steering kinematics and compliance.
- Experience with automotive CAE and simulation tools such as MSC ADAMS/Car, Altair HyperWorks, NASTRAN, CarSim, VI-CarRealTime, and MATLAB.
- Familiarity with Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA).
- Ability to analyze engineering data, troubleshoot vehicle performance issues, and recommend design improvements.
- Strong communication and presentation skills.
- High proficiency in English, both written and spoken.

Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with CarSim.
- Programming or scripting experience using MATLAB, Visual Basic, ADAMS command files, or ADAMS/Car templates.
- Familiarity with Siemens NX, Teamcenter, and CoDeP.
- Experience with flex-body modeling, component structural analysis, and physical vehicle test correlation.
