Description
What you'll do:
Here you don't just design vehicles, you shape the future of the road. Our Engineering team is where bold ideas meet rigorous execution, building machines that are as durable and capable as the people who drive them. You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with brilliant minds across disciplines, turning complex challenges into elegant, scalable solutions that meet the highest standards of safety, performance, and user experience. This is a place where your fingerprints are found on metal where what you design gets built, driven, and remembered. If you're hungry to engineer something that matters, is where that ambition finds its highest gear.
Your engineering ingenuity, wonder & magic in defining and validating OBD test concepts will be instrumental in shaping the perception of as a brand, as well as gaining peer admiration in the automotive industry
Become part of an iconic brand that is set to revolutionize the electric pick-up truck & rugged SUV marketplace by achieving the following:
Define and maintain testable OBD requirements aligned with regulatory needs and system-level diagnostic concepts for 's software-defined vehicle architecture
