You will be responsible for developing and extending our vehicle dynamics simulation models for full vehicle performance assessment in real-time usage and lap time calculation.

• Develop and extend the in-house full vehicle dynamics simulation models for dynamic simulation and lap time calculation
• Create physical, mathematical or data driven models for highest possible fidelity under given constraints
• Optimise the models for our in-house lap-time calculation solver and/or our real-time driver in the loop environment
• Analyse data to compare and correlate model behaviour, identifying gaps and implementing improvements

What you need

A minimum of a master’s degree in automotive or motorsport engineering, or an engineering discipline with modules covering several of the following topics: Mathematical/Physical Modelling, Vehicle Dynamics, Simulation, Optimisation, Control Theory or Robotics/Mechatronics.

• At least 5 years of professional experience in developing performance vehicle dynamics simulation models
• Strong proficiency in mathematical and physical modelling of vehicle dynamics systems
• Proficient knowledge in at least one programming language – e.g. C++, C, MATLAB/Simulink, Python
• Previous experience in quasistatic and dynamic lap-time calculation methods
• Previous experience in optimisation methods
• Previous experience with numerical integration methods to solve dynamical models

Why this matters

This role plays a crucial part in 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 vehicle development programmes.
