Automotive engineer

Automotive engineers design and develop vehicles and their systems — engines, drivetrains, chassis, electronics, and increasingly electrified and autonomous technologies. The work combines design and simulation with physical prototype testing, real-world evaluation, manufacturing integration, and meeting strict safety and emissions regulations.

They work for vehicle manufacturers and their suppliers. The role suits engineers passionate about how vehicles work who enjoy the full cycle from concept to a product that has to perform, sell, and pass homologation.
