Job description


About Us:QDSL (Quintessential Design Services Limited) is an engineering and technology consultancy based in the UK, supporting client projects in field of Engineering Innovations, Research & Development and IT. We offer engineering support in Automotive, Aerospace, Energy and IT.


The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of automotive emissions, simulation tools, and regulatory compliance requirements. The role involves developing and applying simulation models to analyse, predict, and optimize gasoline engine emissions, ensuring compliance with environmental standards and improving engine performance.


Position: Gasoline Aftertreatment Emissions Engineer - (Mechanical Engineer)

Job Type: Permanent / Contract

Location: Warwickshire


Key Responsibilities

  • Support the design & development of Propulsion System using CAE processes
  • Work with design teams to develop and optimise solutions considering multi-attributes within defined deadlines and time constraints.
  • Support the continual development of tools and techniques which enhance capability, improve quality and robustness of Virtual models.
  • Conduct the design analysis and development with utmost quality within agile framework


Simulation and Modelling:

  • Develop and validate advanced simulation models for gasoline engine emissions using software tools such as AVL Cruise, GT-Suite, or MATLAB/Simulink
  • Conduct computational simulations to predict exhaust gas composition, emission levels, and system performance.
  • Collaborate with system teams to integrate emissions modelling into vehicle development cycles


Analyse and Optimization:

  • Perform detailed analyses of emission results to identify areas for improvement.
  • Optimize combustion, aftertreatment systems, and control strategies to reduce pollutant emissions (e.g., CO₂, NOₓ, HC, and particulate matter).
  • Support hardware development and calibration activities with simulation-based insights.
  • Support regulatory reporting and certification processes by providing accurate simulation data


Cross-functional Collaboration:

  • Work closely with engineering, and product development teams to align simulation outputs with project goals.
  • Present findings and recommendations to stakeholders, including technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Support activities involving enhancement in existing simulation methodologies and development of innovative approaches to improve efficiency and accuracy


Skills Knowledge and Experience Required:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical engineering, Automotive Engineering, or a related field
  • 5+ years of experience in emissions simulation, engine design, or a related role.
  • Proficiency in using emission simulation software (e.g., GT-Suite, AVL Boost, MATLAB/Simulink).
  • Strong knowledge of combustion and aftertreatment systems for gasoline engines.
  • Expertise in thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and chemical kinetics as applied to engine emissions
  • Familiarity with engine testing procedures and data interpretation.


What we offer (For Permanent)

  • Competitive Salary in line with level of experience.
  • UK Work Visa sponsorship for eligible candidates.
  • Opportunity to be part of world class product development projects.
  • Pension Scheme
  • 28 Days Holidays (Annual + Bank Holidays) and above additional benefits.
