BIW Tolerance Simulation Lead

The Tolerance Analysis Engineer will Lead the cross functional teams to ensure, the Body and Exterior Build Objectives, Interior Build Objectives, and the Chassis Build/functional Objectives are met. Will work with PDO, Advanced Program and Engineering teams early on in the Program timeline and use 3–D Tolerance Analysis to develop Product and Process Specifications that will achieve finished vehicle Dimensional and Functional Objectives. The Tolerance Analysis Engineer will work with the cross functional teams to develop and implement product and process countermeasures based on tolerance analysis. Use 3D Tolerance Analysis to develop BIW and Subassemblies tolerances, Load and clearance studies for interior and tolerance analysis to ensure Chassis decking, wheel alignment and driveline alignment dimensional and functional objectives are met. They will re-run tolerance analysis to ensure there is no degradation to Dimensional and Functional Objectives based on Supplier feedback.
