About the company
I am currently recruiting on behalf of a Luxury Automotive OEM based in Gaydon who are seeking a Chassis Dyno Engineer to join their team on a rolling contract basis working 40 hours per week.
Job Description
This role provides a hands-on opportunity to support the operation of the Environmental Chassis Emissions Dynamometer at the APRL facility, based at Warwick University. Reporting to the Test Preparation Engineer, you will be responsible for the end-to-end execution of chassis dyno testing activities:
- Experience in chassis dynamometer or engine test facility operation, including vehicle installation, test execution, and post-test activities.
- Practical experience with vehicle preparation and instrumentation, including sensor setup, thermocouples, emissions measurement systems, and data acquisition.
- Familiarity with test control and data acquisition tools such as AVL (PUMA, CAMEO), ETAS INCA, or equivalent systems.
- Understanding of emissions testing procedures, including bag emissions systems.
- Strong hands-on capability with mechanical systems, including vehicle handling, strapping, and dyno setup.
- Knowledge of laboratory safety procedures and compliance with H&S, ISO, and audit requirements.
- Ability to operate within a structured test environment, following defined processes and standards.
- Capability to support troubleshooting of test setups, basic facility issues, and instrumentation faults.
- Good understanding of vehicle systems and powertrain operation in an ICE and/or electrified environment.
It is understood that a single individual with a comprehensive understanding of the above is unlikely; the laboratory will work with a number of internal and external parties to develop both the individuals and the whole team capability, with the objective of developing a diverse and dynamic team.
