High Performance / Skill Rider
Hero MotoCorp
High Performance / Skill Rider role at Hero MotoCorp in Jaipur, Rajasthan. This is a full-time, on-site position at the company's R&D centre.
The listing was posted on 12 Oct 2026 on Hero MotoCorp's careers site, in the Research & Development centre at the Jaipur centre.
About Hero MotoCorp
Hero MotoCorp describes itself on its careers site as the world's largest manufacturer of motorcycles and scooters, a position it has held for 25 consecutive years, with about 130 million customers across 52 countries. Its global R&D hub, the Centre of Innovation and Technology (CIT), is in Jaipur, and that is where this role sits.
The role in plain terms
This is chassis development testing from the saddle: you test and develop chassis systems and components on vehicles under extreme riding conditions, generating the objective and subjective data that tunes braking, suspension and ergonomics to project targets. You prepare and perform vehicle tests, report quantitative and qualitative feedback in writing, follow Hero's SOPs and engineering guidelines, understand how vehicle geometry, braking and suspension parameters affect performance, and suggest changes and investigation areas to hit project targets.
What the employer asks for
These requirements are quoted or closely condensed from the employer's listing so the details are not distorted:
- B.Tech, plus either 3 years in a similar position at a two-wheeler manufacturer or 3 years of motorcycle racing at top level in national or international championships (on-road or off-road)
- Experience in motorcycle handling/dynamics, suspension, brakes and ergonomics testing and evaluation
- Capability to ride all kinds of two-wheelers, including high-performance and racing motorcycles
- Sound knowledge of motorcycle chassis systems; basic vehicle repair capability
- Written and verbal English clear enough to report test results professionally
- Experience of rider training and willingness to groom new riders in the team
Who this role suits
This is one of the rarer seats in Indian automotive R&D: it suits a racer or test rider with engineering literacy, or an engineer with genuinely elite riding skill. The dual eligibility (B.Tech plus either industry testing or championship racing) is stated in the listing, so racing credentials alone do not qualify without the degree.
Practical notes
The listing names an internal pay band (E4 to M2) rather than a salary figure. Expect a riding assessment plus a technical interview on vehicle dynamics: be able to articulate what a specific suspension change does at the limit.
