-
Conduct the design analysis and development with utmost quality within agile framework
Simulation and Modelling:
-
Develop and validate advanced simulation models for gasoline engine emissions using software tools such as AVL Cruise, GT-Suite, or MATLAB/Simulink
-
Conduct computational simulations to predict exhaust gas composition, emission levels, and system performance.
-
Collaborate with system teams to integrate emissions modelling into vehicle development cycles
Analyse and Optimization
-
Perform detailed analyses of emission results to identify areas for improvement.
-
Optimize combustion, aftertreatment systems, and control strategies to reduce pollutant emissions (e.g., CO₂, NOₓ, HC, and particulate matter).
-
Support hardware development and calibration activities with simulation-based insights.
-
Support regulatory reporting and certification processes by providing accurate simulation data
Cross-functional Collaboration:
-
Work closely with engineering, and product development teams to align simulation outputs with project goals.
-
Present findings and recommendations to stakeholders, including technical and non-technical audiences.

-
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical engineering, Automotive Engineering, or a related field
-
5+ years of experience in emissions simulation, engine design, or a related role.
-
Proficiency in using emission simulation software (e.g., GT-Suite, AVL Boost, MATLAB/Simulink).
-
Strong knowledge of combustion and aftertreatment systems for gasoline engines.
-
Expertise in thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and chemical kinetics as applied to engine emissions.
-
Familiarity with engine testing procedures and data interpretation.
What we offer (For Permanent)
-
Competitive Salary in line with level of experience
-
UK Work Visa sponsorship for eligible candidates
-
Opportunity to be part of world class product development projects
-
Pension Scheme
-
28 Days Holidays (Annual + Bank Holidays).
