About Us

Newcastle Automotive Solutions is expanding its calibration technician base, specialising in the calibration, diagnosis and testing of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) for the collision repair and automotive glass industries.

You will work with modern diagnostic and calibration equipment while following manufacturer-specific procedures to ensure systems such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Departure Warning, Lane Keep Assist, Blind Spot Monitoring and Autonomous Emergency Braking operate correctly.
