Which ATS platforms does swipeandhired support?

All of them. swipeandhired applies on every applicant tracking system (ATS) employers use, including Workday, SmartRecruiters, Greenhouse, iCIMS, Lever, Ashby, Taleo, SuccessFactors, Oracle Cloud and Jobvite, and on a company's own careers page when it uses none of them. You can also bring any posting yourself by link or pasted text.

Can I cancel my subscription?

Anytime, in one click from the billing portal in Settings. Your plan stays active until the end of the current billing period. No retention calls, no dark patterns.

Is my data used for training AI models?

Our platform AI provider may use the content we send it, your profile and the job posting, to improve its models. We never sell your data. If you bring your own AI provider key, requests go directly to your provider under their terms.

At Slate, we’re building safe, reliable vehicles that people can afford, personalize and love—and doing it here in the USA as part of our commitment to reindustrialization. The spirit of DIY and customization runs throughout every element of a Slate, because people should have control over how their trucks look, feel, and represent them.

| WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

Slate is looking for a motivated, detail-oriented Vehicle CAE Engineer to join our growing team. This position will be responsible for performing NVH, durability, strength, and stiffness simulations to support the development and optimization of EV body, chassis, and closure structures. Working under the guidance of senior engineers, this role offers an excellent opportunity to grow within a dynamic, startup-paced environment.

| WHAT YOU GET TO DO

The Vehicle CAE Engineer will support the CAE team in simulation activities and design evaluation. Key responsibilities include:
Support NVH and durability analysis for BIW, HV Battery structure, Trimmed Body, and full vehicle structures using tools such as ANSA, Optistruct, and nCode Design Life.
Assist in building, running, and debugging full vehicle NVH and durability models using pre-processing tools like ANSA and HyperMesh.
Analyze simulation results, identify design issues, and provide recommendations for improvement.
Perform iterative simulations to optimize component and vehicle-level performance targets.
Support vehicle and component testing activities and assist in correlating CAE results with physical test data.
Help apply engineering methods and tools including DOE and design optimization techniques.
Prepare technical reports summarizing simulation results, findings, and improvement actions.
Collaborate with design, manufacturing, and supplier teams to meet vehicle performance requirements.

| WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TEAM

Bachelor of Science Degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering, or equivalent, from an ABET-accredited or equivalent program.
Master’s degree is a plus.
8+ years of automotive structures CAE experience, with exposure to NVH and/or durability analysis.
Solid foundation in mechanical engineering principles and their application to product development.
Ability to work both independently and as part of a cross-functional team.
Strong oral and written communication skills with the ability to present technical findings clearly.
Eagerness to learn, problem-solve, and grow within a fast-moving organization.
Familiarity with tools such as nCode, Optistruct / NASTRAN, ANSA, and Hyper Works.
Basic understanding of NVH concepts including source-path-receiver thinking for structure-borne vibration and airborne noise.
Exposure to modal analysis, vibration targets, or frequency response analysis is an advantage.
Some experience or academic coursework in random vibration analysis is a plus.
Experience or exposure to CAE-test correlation is desirable.
Experience with electric propulsion systems is desirable, including structural CAE for battery enclosures, battery trays, or high-voltage pack integration within the vehicle architecture.
Familiarity with EV-specific structural considerations such as thermal management interface loads, battery module mounting, or e-motor subframe design is a plus.
Familiarity with vehicle safety regulations and crash performance requirements is desirable, including FMVSS (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards) and US NCAP evaluation criteria as they relate to structural design and CAE simulation.
