OUR OPEN POSITIONS (2025/2026)
BODY
POWERTRAIN, ELECTRONICS & PROCESS
BODY
Chief Body
The Body Department designs and produces the aerodynamic shell and the load carrying structures of the car. This makes the body the base of the car; every other subsystem is attached to the body. As the Chief Body, you will lead the Body Department. As a Chief, you are expected to keep a detailed overview of your department and the production process. Therefore, you will have to coordinate your department’s progress and be updated about other departments.
As the Chief, you will also be the contact person for the Chief Engineer and the Project Manager. You have to be able to answer their questions and you must make sure that the Body Department can uphold the quality demands of the Chief Engineer and the deadlines that are set by the Project Manager. You will not only learn about designing and producing the aerodynamic shell and structure of the car, but also how to lead and coordinate a team of engineers and communicate with other departments.
REQUIREMENTS
- Basic knowledge of structures and composites
- Basic knowledge of aerodynamics
- Basic knowledge of Finite Element Methods (FEM)
- Responsible
- Strong communication skills
POWERTRAIN, ELECTRONICS & PROCESS
Powertrain Engineer
As Powertrain Engineer, you will be responsible for designing and producing the power supply from the generator to the electric motor. Therefore, knowledge of electronics is useful. You have the opportunity to help develop groundbreaking engine technology. You will play a pivotal role in conceptualizing, designing, and bringing to life a new type of engine that pushes the boundaries of performance, efficiency, and sustainability. You will learn how to design, produce and test the components that make up the powertrain of the next Eco-Runner.
REQUIREMENTS
- Basic knowledge of electronics
- Problem solving skills
- Assertive and proactive
Electronics Engineer
Being the Electronics Engineer, you will be active in multiple electronics projects and need to communicate with different departments. You will be responsible for designing and testing low-voltage electronics and managing documentation for active projects. These projects include: the vehicle electric system, the emergency safety system and the sensor electronics as well as the overall wiring scheme within the car. These systems work with microcontrollers to communicate with the other components of the car. You will participate within these projects in collaboration with the fuel cell and power electronics engineers and assist the strategy engineers with the sensor system. For this you will use design software such as Altium and LTSpice to run simulations and design PCB’s and you will create schematic drawings and produce wiring diagrams.
REQUIREMENTS
- Basic knowledge of circuit analysis & design
- Basic theoretical knowledge of electronics
- Basic programming skills
- Experience with microcontrollers (preferred)
Process Engineer
As the Process Engineer, you will be responsible for the gas turbine and its components. Using your thermodynamics knowledge, you will design and develop an efficient gas turbine with support from specialized companies. You will work closely with these companies to ensure the right components are integrated into the car. Along the way, you will learn about micro gas turbine technology, which is central to Eco-Runner’s innovative vehicle.
REQUIREMENTS
- Background in thermodynamics
- Background in chemical engineering/chemistry
- Knowledge of fuels (preferred)
- Hard worker
- Creative
