Descripción del empleo

Brackets are the physical backbone of the powertrain interfacing directly with engines, transmissions, chassis, and thermal systems. In this role, you won’t be a cog in a massive machine stuck on a single tiny part for years. You will own full, end-to-end component release, working across cross-functional integration teams, managing suppliers, and gaining direct exposure to the entire vehicle architecture. If you are a contract DRE, a Tier-1 design engineer, or a skilled CAD designer ready to take total ownership of product releases from concept to production launch, this is your platform to step up.

About the Role

In this role, you will manage powertrain brackets and structural mounting components from early concept and package feasibility through tooling, validation, and full volume production.

Responsibilities

• End-to-End Release Ownership: Manage powertrain brackets and structural mounting components from early concept and package feasibility through tooling, validation, and full volume production.
• CAD & Packaging: Develop and refine 3D models and 2D detail drawings using CATIA V5 or Siemens NX, conducting packaging and clearance checks within complex powertrain environments.
• Cross-Functional Integration: Collaborate with engine, chassis, NVH, thermal, and vehicle integration leads to resolve clearance, fit, and structural interface challenges.
• Quality & Validation: Lead engineering documentation including DFMEA, DVP&R, and GD&T application; review validation test results (DV/PV) and drive root-cause analysis for build issues.
• Engineering Change Management: Process engineering changes (CNs, release gates, drawing updates) in PLM systems (Teamcenter/Enovia).
• Supplier & Plant Support: Partner with supplier engineers on manufacturability (castings, stampings, weldments) and support physical prototype/pilot builds at manufacturing facilities.

Qualifications

• Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Electromechanical, or related field.
• Experience: 2+ years of experience in automotive product development, component design, or engineering release.

Required Skills

• CAD & PLM Proficiency: Hands-on experience with CATIA V5, Siemens NX, or SolidWorks, along with familiarity in PLM data management software (e.g., Teamcenter).
• Engineering Core: Solid understanding of GD&T, drafting standards, and basic strength of materials / structural fundamentals.
• Development Process Knowledge: Exposure to vehicle development tools (DFMEA, DVP&R, or Engineering Change Orders).
• Language: Professional working proficiency in English.

Preferred Skills

• Background: Background in structural sheet metal, stampings, or aluminum/iron castings. Or plastics.
• Direct Experience: Direct experience as a Design & Release Engineer (DRE) for OEM or Tier-1 systems (interior, exterior, body, or powertrain).
• Experience Transitioning: Experience transitioning products from CAD concept into physical plant builds.
