Biomechanical research engineer Job Description

Within the department our clients department they work with an integral approach of topics related to Automated Driving and Cooperative Mobility. Multiple disciplines like Vehicle Dynamics, Control System Design, Tire Modeling and Simulation, Human Body Modeling, Environmental Perception, V2V & V2X Communication, etc. work together to enhance vehicle and traffic safety and mobility, and minimize possible consequences of a collision. This job mainly contributes to an integral approach in these fields.

With your biomechanical expertise, you will contribute to projects in which numerical modelling of various aspects of human behavior play a vital role. Your role will typically consist of understanding the functions of vehicle safety systems and based on this determine what effect they will have on human performance.

You will be challenged to:
1.     develop human models that can predict the risk of injury for a person in an imminent crash;
2.     couple cognitive human behavior models to physical human behavior models in order to develop optimal integrated safety systems;
3.     optimize advanced driver assistance systems by modelling the human as part of the partially automated vehicle’s control system.

Biomechanical research engineer Job Requirements

·      Technical university (MSc or PhD) in biomechanical or biomedical engineering, with a specialization in dynamics and control.A solid background in statistical methods relevant for capturing variations in human properties and behavior.
·      A strong interest in computational modelling.
·      Preferably, you have experience in human performance in the transport domain, such as in automotive, aerospace or maritime applications.
·      Pro-active, able to work independently, well organized, team oriented and result driven;
·      Convincing communication skills, good understanding of related fields;
·      Good knowledge of the English language, German is an advantage;
·      Willing to travel internationally (for customer visits or testing) occasionally.
