About the role

Applied AI Engineer with EV powertrain domain expertise to prototype and ship AI-driven engineering workflows on the Neural Concept platform for EV powertrain applications, collaborating with customers and cross-disciplinary teams.

Responsibilities

  • Build data-driven engineering workflows for EV Powertrain applications (electric motor, gearbox, battery, EDU) on the Neural Concept platform, translating the Solution Owner's product direction into working solutions.
  • Work with lead customers to understand and solve their challenges
  • Apply deep domain knowledge to ensure workflows reflect real engineering practice, constraints, and edge cases that a non-domain builder would miss.
  • Hands-on prototyping using AI/ML tooling — foundation models, LLM-based coding assistants (e.g. Claude), and Python/CAE scripting — to build and iterate rapidly.
  • Work day-to-day with CAD/CAE/ML engineers to take prototypes from first pass to production-ready quality.
  • Validate outputs against real-world engineering standards, using your domain judgment as the quality bar.
  • Feed technical and domain insight back into the broader roadmap based on what you learn while building.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of hands-on engineering experience at an OEM or Tier 1 supplier, designing electric motors, gearboxes, batteries, or other EDU sub-systems — system-level experience preferred.
  • Fluent in Powertrain simulation tools (Motor-CAD, Maxwell, JMAG, Romax) and/or system-level tools (MATLAB/Simulink, Amesim, or in-house tools).
  • Proficient, hands-on user of modern AI tooling — comfortable building real engineering solutions with foundation models and LLM-based tools such as Claude or Codex, not just casually experimenting with them.
  • Direct involvement in an AI transformation initiative at your current or previous company — evidence you've driven AI adoption in engineering practice, not just observed it.
  • Strong Python (or equivalent) scripting ability to build and connect workflow components yourself.
  • Builder mindset: you'd rather prototype something quickly and iterate than stay at the strategy level.

Benefits

  • Work with a world-class technology team — our engineers are top-notch, and we always aim for excellence.
  • Competitive salary and rewarding opportunities as we continue to scale.
  • Collaborative, multicultural environment where your work is visible and recognized.
  • Develop professionally alongside talented colleagues who share knowledge freely and support one another.
  • Make a global impact by helping customers shift to AI-assisted design, making innovation faster, smarter, and more sustainable.
  • Hybrid model and flexible hours — we care about results, not rigid schedules.
