Remote Design Release Engineer, Chassis Powertrain Mounts

Segula Technologies; Saltillo, Ciudad de México; Hybrid; MXN 700,000 - 1,000,000; Full time

Job summary

Groupe SEGULA Technologies SA in Mexico seeks a Mid-Level Design Release Engineer (DRE) for Chassis Powertrain Mounts to own the design, validation, and release of powertrain isolation systems, including elastomeric, hydraulic, and structural bracket mounts. The role requires on-site presence at Saltillo, Toluca, or Santa Fe with a remote modality within Mexico.

You will lead cross-functional teams through PLM/BOM lifecycles, define stiffness/NVH targets, and manage supplier reviews and PPAP

Responsibilities

• Lead full lifecycle ownership (concept through production release) of powertrain mount assemblies and isolation components in PLM/BOM systems.
• Define dynamic stiffness, damping targets, and packaging clearances for mounts to balance NVH, durability, and mass/cost.
• Direct Tier-1 suppliers through design reviews, tooling timelines, prototypes, and PPAP milestones.
• Author/track/execute DVP&R with physical rig testing, multi-axis shaker testing, and vehicle durability/NVH results.
• Provide on-site engineering support at Saltillo, Toluca, or Santa Fe during pre-production builds and launches.
• Lead cross-functional root cause investigations (8D, DFMEA) for build issues and supplier defects

Job description

Position Summary

We are seeking an experienced Mid-Level Design Release Engineer (DRE) – Chassis Powertrain Mounts to own the design, validation, integration, and engineering release of vehicle powertrain isolation systems. In this role, you will lead the development of engine, transmission, and e-drive mounting systems (elastomeric, hydraulic, and structural brackets) to optimize vehicle NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness), durability, and dynamic performance.

This position operates under a remote modality within Mexico but requires active on-site presence at manufacturing facilities and technical centers in Saltillo, Toluca, or Santa Fe (CDMX) to support launch builds, physical testing, supplier alignment, and continuous improvement.

Key Responsibilities

• Product Engineering & Release: Lead the full lifecycle ownership (concept through production release) of powertrain mount assemblies, structural brackets, and isolation components in PLM/BOM systems (e.g., Teamcenter, Enovia).

• System Design & Optimization: Define dynamic stiffness, damping targets, packaging clearances, and structural integrity for powertrain mounts, balancing NVH characteristics, durability, and mass/cost constraints.

• Supplier Management: Direct Tier-1 suppliers through component design reviews, tooling timelines, prototype deliveries, and PPAP (Production Part Approval Process) milestones.

• Validation & DVP&R Execution: Author, track, and execute Design Verification Plans & Reports (DVP&R), evaluating physical rig testing, multi-axis shaker testing, and vehicle-level durability/NVH results.

• On-Site Plant & Launch Support: Provide hands-on engineering support at assembly plants in Saltillo, Toluca, or Santa Fe during pre-production builds and trial runs to address build issues, clearance concerns, and torque-tooling interfaces.

• Problem Solving & Quality Improvement: Lead cross-functional root cause investigations (8D, DFMEA, Fishbone) for plant build issues, supplier quality defects, or field warranty claims.
