This challenge awaits you:
Thermal management in modern vehicles is becoming increasingly complex due to new drive concepts and rising comfort requirements. Especially in the field of interior climate control (HVAC), we are looking for motivated support to develop innovative solutions for the mobility of tomorrow. Join our team and help shape the future of vehicle climate systems!
The location is in St. Agatha, Italy.
Your Tasks:
1. Develop and validate HVAC systems (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) for modern vehicles, focusing on:
2. Air distribution and air quality in the vehicle interior (including CFD analysis and derivation of improvement measures)
3. Application and optimization of refrigeration circuits
4. Calibration and application of software for various climate modes (summer, winter, transitional)
5. Execution and evaluation of homologation and functional tests for international markets
6. Preparation of technical reports and documentation
Necessary Skills:
7. Experience in the development and calibration of automotive HVAC systems
8. Proficiency with tools such as INCA, CANape, Simulink, and experience with CAN/LIN networks
9. Experience with testing in climate chambers and wind tunnels
10. Familiarity with sensor integration (RFLS, CO₂, AQS, temperature sensors)
11. Willingness to travel internationally and work at various test locations
12. Structured and self-reliant working style
13. Excellent command of English and Italian, both written and spoken (niveau C1-C2)
Desired Skills:
Take on responsibility instead of being a cog in the wheel. At IAV, we’ll entrust ever more important tasks to you, step by step. Thanks to professional mentors, you won’t be alone and will be able to grow with your projects. You’ll work together with the big names in the mobility and research world. And you can acquire additional qualifications through e.g. in-house seminars or at conferences.
Diversity and equal opportunity are important to us. What matters to us is the individual, with his or her character and strengths.
