• Work closely with our cross-functional team to develop and conduct customer training remotely and onsite

We're looking for someone who has:

• A MS in Mechanical Engineering or a BS with relevant industry experience
• 5+ years of hands-on experience in the automotive industry
• Experience using simulation software, such as CarSim, Simulink, Simian, or similar tools
• Evaluated vehicle dynamics behavior at the system level, such as response to driver controls
• Experience evaluating Advanced Driver Assistance Systems at the system level

Nice to have:

• Familiarity or experience using our products (CarSim, BikeSim, TruckSim, and SuspensionSim)
• Experience creating new projects (steering, braking, or other AV/ADAS enabling controllers) using our products and MATLAB/Simulink
• Ability to program as needed to support automation and integration of multiple software tools
• Worked with automotive driving simulators and real-time simulation systems, such as DSPACE, Concurrent, NI, and VI-Grade
• Experience with Unreal Game Engine
