Tasks:

• Cooperate with other chassis members in developing chassis components in CAD
• Create 3D models, assemblies, and technical drawings for manufacturing
• Collaborate with suspension, powertrain, and aerodynamics teams to integrate components into the chassis
• Perform design iterations based on packaging constraints and performance requirements
• Assist with manufacturing

Profile:

We are looking for a motivated Chassis CAD Engineer to join our Formula Student engineering team. In this role, you will design and develop the vehicle chassis structure using CAD tools while working closely with the suspension, aerodynamics, and powertrain teams to ensure structural integrity, manufacturability, and optimal vehicle performance.

This is a hands-on engineering role ideal for students interested in vehicle design, structural engineering, and motorsport development.

Requirements:

• Experience with Creo or similar CAD software
• Understanding of mechanical design principles and basic vehicle structures
• Ability to work effectively in a team environment
• High availability to work in the workshop

What awaits you:

• Practical experience designing real race car components
• Hands-on exposure to engineering design, manufacturing, and testing
• Collaboration with a multidisciplinary engineering team
• Opportunity to compete in international Formula Student competitions
• Valuable experience for careers in automotive, motorsport, and engineering design

Time expenditure: 10 hours per Week

What We Expect in Addition:

Beyond technical competence, we place great value on personal commitment and the ability to work effectively within a team. Formula Student is a performance-driven development project that only succeeds through reliability and personal responsibility.

We expect:

• Reliability and adherence to agreements
• Independent and structured working style
• Clear and respectful communication within the team
• Willingness to actively participate in meetings and test days
• Thorough documentation of one’s own work
