The Compound
Development Department of the Research & Development
Center is responsible for the design, validation, and implementation of tyre
compounds that deliver innovative solutions and optimized performance,
contributing to the superior performance of our tyres.
Join our
R&D team to develop AI/ML and data-driven models that predict how curatives (reactive
ingredients responsible for vulcanization) influence compound properties
and tyre performance. You will work with laboratory-generated data to develop a
versatile predictive model that links the type and concentration of curatives to the
behaviour of compounds and tyre products. Applying advanced modelling
techniques to real industrial challenges, you will collaborate closely with
experienced researchers in an innovation-driven environment.
