The experience of an Aston Martin starts long before the engine fires into life. It begins with how a driver feels when they sit behind the wheel, how naturally they interact with the vehicle, and how every touchpoint creates a sense of confidence, comfort and connection.
We're looking for an Occupant & HMI Experience Senior Engineer to help shape those moments.
Joining our Vehicle Engineering team in Gaydon, you'll play a key role in defining and developing the ergonomics, comfort, usability and Human Machine Interface (HMI) experience across our future vehicle programmes. This is a unique opportunity to influence products that combine luxury, performance and cutting-edge technology, ensuring every interaction feels intuitive, purposeful and unmistakably Aston Martin.
You'll work across physical and virtual development environments, turning customer insights, benchmark learning and technical data into experiences that exceed expectations. Whether it's developing ergonomic seating concepts, refining HMI interactions, supporting user clinics or exploring future UX trends, you'll help create vehicles that feel as exceptional to use as they are to drive.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys blending engineering excellence with customer-centric thinking. You'll collaborate with specialists across design, vehicle engineering, quality and programme teams, helping to translate complex requirements into meaningful experiences that deliver against both objective performance targets and subjective customer perception.
We are looking for someone with experience in vehicle attributes, ergonomics, HMI, UX, human factors, or a related engineering discipline to lead the development and delivery of upfront buck and virtual reality (VR) methodologies. The successful candidate will combine strong analytical and problem-solving skills with excellent stakeholder management capabilities, alongside a genuine interest in understanding how people interact with technology. You will be highly proficient in CAD and product lifecycle management tools, including Siemens NX and Teamcentre, and have experience working within both physical and virtual development environments
Most importantly, you'll be someone who enjoys challenging convention, exploring new ideas and continually asking how the experience can be made even better for the customer.
At Aston Martin, you'll have the opportunity to work on some of the world's most desirable vehicles alongside talented colleagues who are passionate about creating extraordinary experiences. If you'd like to help define the future of occupant comfort, usability and HMI within a globally recognised luxury automotive brand, we'd love to hear from you.
