Job Description

Great thinking drives us. It’s behind the creativity and engineering excellence that shine through in every aspect of our premium luxury vehicles. In how they perform. In how they look. And in the unrivalled driving experience that they offer.

We’re at the forefront of innovation, and we want to stay here. Our ceaseless search for new ideas is taking us in some fascinating new directions. If you want to explore where your thinking could take you, make Jaguar Land Rover your ultimate destination.

And this role certainly represents the ultimate challenge for an engineer. You’ll be a key member of the ETO team responsible for engineering exclusive premium products for our top-line ranges, and for bringing a creative and innovative approach to unique and bespoke vehicles.

The department works in a nimble and responsive way, which means products can be brought to market quickly. Because it’s structured as an autonomous business, you’ll enjoy unprecedented freedom. Indeed, we’ll expect you to actively develop the team with new ideas.

Here, you’ll be responsible for taking a range of desirable products from design concept right through to volume production. These products will be hugely diverse, from night vision, fog lights and LED lights to stolen vehicle tracking or iPad integration – and beyond. They may be required for fitment on the production line, or at dealerships. The sheer variety of projects means your skills will be stretched like never before.

Working closely with Design teams to define products and create engineering specifications, your goal will be to combine high quality with affordability – assuring ‘must-have’ status. Owning the full process for each product, you’ll select suppliers, define standards, produce releases and develop rigorous test regimes.

Candidate Profile

Qualified to degree level in an electrical / electronics subject, you will ideally have a broad knowledge of electrical and electronic systems, preferably combined with NOS/ CAN / LIN / MOST architecture.

You’ll certainly have demonstrable automotive electrical and practical engineering workshop experience, together with advanced project management skills. A clear acumen for business will really set you apart.

Our customers expect the best, and so do we, so you’ll be challenged every day. You’ll hone your skills to the leading edge and you’ll enjoy all the rewards that come from powering the growth of a prestigious luxury brand.

Benefits

Our employees have access to a privilege car purchase scheme, membership of a competitive pension plan, performance related bonus scheme and 26 days holiday entitlement.

Please note, we reserve the right to close or extend this position depending on application numbers. Therefore we would urge candidates to submit an application as early as possible.
