About this role
Role Overview
- Develop key geometrical architectures that define the shape and functionality of a vehicle using 3D CAD, CAE, and physical prototypes.
- Work with product design teams to develop the vehicle CAD models starting from vehicle attributes and working towards a product that can be manufactured in high volume while meeting a wide variety of use cases.
**What you'll do...
- Ideate with engineers, designers, and other teams in creating new solutions for automotive applications.
- Problem-solve to find geometric solutions using 3D CAD that balance attributes with the product concept, business case, and other guiding principles.
- Using a systems design approach, optimize a vehicle’s topology to deliver efficient vehicle concepts.
Requirements
- Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related engineering degree.
- 3+ years of experience in an automotive product development environment.
- 2+ years of experience designing in Catia, 3DX, NX, SolidWorks or other CAD system.
- Work experience in an automotive product development environment.
- Capability to use 3D CAD software as a collaborative tool.
- Strong teamwork and collaboration skills.
- Strong grasp on mechanical engineering fundamentals and simple mechanisms.
- Understanding and proficiency in Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T).
Even better, you may have...
- Experience in vehicle systems, vehicle architecture, or powertrain systems development.
- EMM, studio, powertrain, or chassis experience.
- Knowledgeable in design for manufacturing processes (injection molding, casting, etc.).
- Hands-on experience narrowing product scope and facilitating cross-functional decisions on complex products.
- Familiarity with world automotive regulations, consumer ratings, and major load cases that guide road vehicle product constraints.
- Exemplary communication skills, highly collaborative and eager to participate in projects that transform the business.
- Understanding and proficiency in Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T).
