- Minimum 5 years of experience in automotive safety engineering, with a strong focus on CAE and airbag simulation
- Hands-on expertise in safety-related CAE simulations, specifically in occupant restraint systems and airbag deployment performance
- Strong understanding of finite element modelling (FEM) and simulation methods for airbag modules, including frontal, side, curtain, and knee airbags
- Familiarity with occupant injury criteria, crash test dummy models, and regulatory/safety performance requirements (Euro NCAP, ECE, US NCAP, IIHS, FMVSS)
- Experience in using CAE tools for safety and restraint simulations
- Ability to validate simulation results with physical test data and refine models to improve prediction accuracy
- Familiarity with vehicle crashworthiness requirements, restraint system integration, and safety performance optimization
- Demonstrated ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams including design, test, and homologation engineers
- Background in structured problem-solving methodologies (DFMEA, DVP, 8D, 5Y, DFSS, FTA)
- Strong technical and analytical skills, with attention to detail in modelling and validation
- Good communication and interpersonal skills, capable of working effectively in cross-functional teams
- Proficiency in reporting and presenting technical findings to stakeholders
- Ability to manage multiple tasks and deliver results within tight deadlines
- Passion for safety and commitment to delivering high-quality CAE outcomes
