We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Engineer (m/w/d) to join our Vehicle Simulation team. You will be responsible for developing real-time vehicle simulation models in Simulink (and C) and will apply them to hardware- and driver-in-the-loop facilities. You will play a crucial role in creating a realistic and accurate driving simulation environment for offline simulation and driving simulator usage, collaborating with a multidisciplinary team of engineers and software developers. We aim to innovate and accelerate the wider deployment of state-of-the-art Digital Twin and driving simulation technologies, applied to Toyota GR racing and road vehicle development programs.
Are you a team player who thrives on responsibility, with strong analytical skills and a very good understanding of controls systems? Then you are the right person to take on this challenge. Experience team work and be inspired by the passion of our 450-strong workforce for motorsport and automotive projects.
What we offer:
exciting projects and a place for technical freedom and innovation to get things moving
attractive benefits packages e.g. competitive remuneration, social benefits, 30 days annual holiday, car leasing, free on-site gym
a challenging, fulfilling workplace in a multi-national company within a familiar atmosphere - driven by fascination and passion
Your Tasks:
further develop TGR-E’s vehicle-dynamic simulation tools, full-vehicle models, and model-based development processes
apply your vehicle models and control algorithms to real-time hardware-in-the-loop facilities such as dynamic Driving Simulators or HiL test benches
operate and maintain the TGR-E driving simulators, including hardware and software components
interact confidently with colleagues, professional race drivers, technical experts and VIP visitors, adapting communication styles as needed
maintain composure during demanding situations, exhibiting a “cool-head” approach to problem-solving
approach challenges with a proactive mindset, proposing innovative solutions and driving development
