Are you early in your engineering career and want to move beyond theory into real-world automotive projects? This is an opportunity to step into a field-based applications role where you will build on your experience with automotive communication and simulation tools, while working directly with customers.
You will be supporting OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers as they develop and test next-generation vehicle systems. It is a role where you will learn fast, get hands-on with advanced technology, and gain exposure to real programmes rather than staying in a purely internal or lab-based environment.
The hiring manager is open to engineers with around 1-2 years’ experience working with automotive communication networks, simulation tools or embedded systems, who want to step into a more customer-facing and project-led role.
What You Will Do:
-
Support customer projects, helping deliver technical solutions across simulation and validation activities
-
Work with automotive communication systems including CAN, LIN, FlexRay and Ethernet
-
Assist with the setup and configuration of HIL and SIL environments
-
Support customers in implementing and troubleshooting simulation and testing solutions
-
Contribute to project planning, tracking progress and supporting delivery against timelines
-
Produce clear updates and reports, highlighting risks and progress
-
Support internal development of demo and test systems
-
Build your knowledge of automotive architectures, standards and emerging technologies
What You Will Bring:
-
Degree in Electrical, Electronic, Automotive or Computer Science Engineering
-
1-2 years’ experience working with automotive communication networks (CAN, LIN etc) or similar technologies
-
Exposure to simulation, test or validation environments (HIL, SIL or similar)
-
Understanding of embedded systems or ECU-level engineering
-
Strong communication skills and the confidence to engage with customers
-
A proactive mindset with a willingness to learn and develop quickly
This role is built for development.
You will not be expected to know everything from day one. You will receive structured training, hands-on support and the opportunity to learn directly from experienced engineers while working on live customer projects.
It is a chance to accelerate your career, gain real industry exposure and move into a role where you can see the impact of your work.
Location:
Based in Warwick, with occasional travel to customer sites across the UK and Europe.
Interested?
If you have a foundation in automotive communication or simulation and want to build a career working directly with cutting-edge technology and customers, this is worth a conversation.

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 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
- Exposure to HIL or SIL tools such as dSPACE, Vector CANoe or CANalyzer, ETAS or similar
- Knowledge of embedded systems and ECU testing approaches
- 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.
