Are you an engineer who enjoys solving problems but wants to get closer to the customer and the bigger picture? This is an opportunity to step into a field-based applications role where you will combine hands-on automotive systems knowledge with real project delivery.

You will be working directly with OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers, helping them implement and optimise simulation, communication and validation systems. It is part engineering, part problem-solving, and part project coordination - with real visibility and impact.

The hiring manager is open to engineers with experience in tools such as dSPACE or Vector who want to move into a more customer-facing, project-led role.

What You Will Do:

  • Coordinate customer projects, managing timelines, deliverables and communication between internal teams and external stakeholders

     

  • Support the delivery of technical solutions aligned to customer requirements, budgets and programme schedules

     

  • Work directly with customers to support the implementation of automotive communication systems including CAN, LIN, FlexRay and Ethernet

     

  • Get hands-on with HIL and SIL environments, supporting setup, configuration and optimisation of test systems

     

  • Provide technical input during customer discussions, helping troubleshoot and resolve engineering challenges

     

  • Produce clear project reports, highlighting risks, dependencies and progress

     

  • Support the development of internal demo and test systems

     

  • Stay up to date with evolving automotive technologies, architectures and standards

     

What You Will Bring:

  • Degree in Electrical, Electronic, Automotive or Computer Science Engineering (MSc desirable)

     

  • Understanding of automotive communication protocols such as CAN, LIN, FlexRay and Ethernet

  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work directly with customers

     

  • A proactive mindset with the curiosity to learn and develop in a fast-moving technical environment

     

This role offers something slightly different.

You are not just sat behind a desk or tied to one system. You will be working across multiple customer projects, technologies and challenges - getting exposure to how different OEMs approach development and validation.

It is a chance to move into a more visible, commercially relevant engineering role while still staying close to the technical detail.

Location:

Based in Warwick, with occasional travel to customer sites across the UK and Europe.
