About the Role

Neural Concept’s Vertical Solutions team turns the most critical engineering use cases into streamlined, production-grade workflows empowered by leading AI technologies.

As Senior Vehicle Solution Owner, you will use a decade of automotive engineering experience to lead one of the most strategically important parts of our automotive offering. You will define the Vehicle Body solution — built on top of the Neural Concept platform — combining design, simulation and data-science/ML to compress development cycles across the full breadth of vehicle attributes. You will partner directly with leading OEMs to understand their needs and translate them into solution direction and product strategy.

If you have spent your career as a chief engineer, attribute lead or technical specialist designing cars, this is a unique chance to step out of a single program and shape, at industry scale, how vehicle are engineered with AI.

What you will do

Own the Vehicle solution end to end. Define and deliver competitive, replicable solutions for automotive vehicle engineering on the Neural Concept platform, spanning the full breadth of body attributes.

Partner with lead customers. Lead discovery interviews with OEM and Tier-1 customers, build trusted strategic relationships, validate solutions against real-world requirements, and expand product scope to cover a larger part of the design process.

Work hands-on with ML engineers and scientists. Collaborate closely with a cross-functional team of CAD/CAE/ML engineers — from prototype to production-ready solution — to advance what is possible in engineering design with AI.

Enable go-to-market teams. Equip Sales, Solution Engineering, and Marketing with the domain knowledge, value proposition, and materials they need to position the Vehicle solution credibly with senior automotive stakeholders.

Support strategic customers and partners. Represent Neural Concept in high-level technical and strategic discussions, monitor key customer projects within the vertical to ensure alignment and value delivery, and align vertical initiatives with overall company strategy.

Who you are

Experience

10+ years in the automotive industry designing vehicles, in a role such as chief engineer, attribute lead, or technical lead focused on key performance attributes (e.g. aerodynamics, crash/structural safety, thermal).

Proven track record of owning vehicle engineering decisions across the full development cycle: requirements, concept, modeling and simulation, validation, testing, and release.

Experience building and influencing relationships with senior engineering stakeholders at OEMs.

Hard skills

Hands-on understanding of CAD, PLM, simulation (CAE), physical and virtual testing, and design for manufacturing.

Fluent in the workflows and tools automotive body engineers use — for example CATIA / NX and Teamcenter / 3DEXPERIENCE (CAD/PLM); LS-DYNA, Pam-Crash, Radioss, Abaqus, Nastran (crash/structural); StarCCM+, OpenFOAM, PowerFLOW (aero/thermal).

Comfortable working with data-driven engineering approaches.

Mindset

Pragmatic problem solver — focused on impact, not buzzwords; willing to look at engineering from a new angle and challenge established ways of working.

Strong customer discovery skills and empathy, with the credibility to engage senior automotive leaders.

Strategic thinker who can move fluidly between long-term direction and hands-on, cross-functional delivery.

Nice to have

Hands-on experience with Python, AI tools, and ML/data-science processes.

Exposure to applying machine learning or surrogate modeling to engineering design.
