About Lucid

At Lucid, we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucid’s proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture, our award-winning vehicles bring our “Compromise Nothing™” approach to the global automotive market. That means refusing to choose between performance and sustainability, design and engineering, ambition and integrity. In Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments, combining exceptional range, performance, design, and expansive space in a single experience.

We achieve this through deep vertical integration, with design, engineering, and production happening in-house across our global offices and manufacturing facilities. Our teams come from industries around the world, united by a shared commitment to excellence. By refusing to settle, you can help redefine what’s possible and shape the future of mobility.

The Vehicle Efficiency Engineering (VEE) team is responsible for vehicle-level attributes that directly impact efficiency, performance, and customer experience. Working closely with product development, manufacturing, testing, validation, and attribute teams, Efficiency Engineering plays a critical role in delivering efficient, high-performing vehicles that meet customer expectations and regulatory requirements. Through a combination of engineering expertise, data-driven decision-making, and cross-functional collaboration, the team influences key decisions from concept development through production launch and beyond.

About the Role

As a Vehicle Test Engineer II within VEE, you will collaborate across teams to identify and improve vehicle efficiency, range, and cabin comfort. You will support vehicle development and benchmarking, instrument vehicles, use data acquisition systems, and execute vehicle-level testing on proving grounds, chassis dynamometers, and climate chambers. Your work will help optimize energy consumption and cabin conditioning in a fast-paced, multidisciplinary environment that values initiative and enthusiasm for electric vehicles.

What You Own

Vehicle Test Planning: Plan and execute dynamic vehicle-level tests using plans developed with internal stakeholders and external resources.
Cross-functional Collaboration: Cooperate directly with hardware, software, and testing teams in an efficient, multidisciplinary, and innovative environment.
Instrumentation and Data: Instrument vehicles with sensors for efficiency and performance measurements with hardware/software support; retrieve, process, store, and share logged test data.
Facilities and Execution: Schedule test tracks, dynamometers, and thermal chambers, prioritize resources against changing deadlines, and run proving-ground, climate-chamber, and chassis-dynamometer procedures while collecting and sharing data.
Performance Validation: Work with simulation and functional teams to validate components, subsystems, and complete vehicles and define appropriate engineering analysis.
Homologation and Standards: Work with the homologation team to understand official test procedures and their requirements.
Engineering and Benchmarking: Participate in design reviews, provide engineering input and analysis, and benchmark competitive vehicles for efficiency, range, and cabin comfort.

Qualifications :

Excellent communication in technical and non-technical environments and a passion for hands-on automotive engineering and testing.
Knowledge of range, coast-down, and dynamometer testing; ability to interpret standards and regulatory test procedures with the homologation team.
Understanding automotive HVAC and thermal-system fundamentals, the ability to define vehicle-system requirements and targets using a range of strategies, and experience troubleshooting vehicle issues.
Working knowledge of vehicle networks such as CAN, LIN, and Ethernet, with ability to instrument vehicles and operate data acquisition systems such as HBM, Hioki, and Vector.
