• Advanced Siemens NX experience, including complex modeling, assemblies, design intent, Wave linking, and clearance analysis.
• Advanced experience with Teamcenter, TcC, Active Workspace, TcVis, and product-structure management.
• Experience creating engineering drawings and PMI using GD&T, tolerance analysis, dimensional strategies, and interface definitions.
• Knowledge of automotive engineering principles, safety, durability, regulatory requirements, and design verification.
• Experience applying DFM/DFA, manufacturing processes, fastening standards, and plant requirements.
• Ability to interpret CAE results and convert findings into design recommendations.
• Experience with digital vehicle, configuration, issue, and engineering-change tools.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, planning, and decision-making skills.
• Ability to lead cross-functional work, influence decisions, mentor others, and manage multiple technical deliverables.
• Strong organization, ownership, follow-through, and attention to detail.

Responsabilidades

• Lead the design and integration of complex transmission and drive unit components, subsystems, and interfaces.
• Translate engineering, safety, regulatory, customer, and manufacturing requirements into robust designs.
• Make design trade-offs involving performance, cost, mass, timing, dimensional variation, assembly, serviceability, and manufacturability.
• Develop advanced NX models using parametric, associative, and Wave-linked techniques.
• Create NX assemblies and perform clearance, interference, packaging, and integration studies.
• Use Teamcenter and TcVis to manage product structures, configurations, and design data.
• Create and release complete 2D drawings and PMI, including GD&T, dimensional strategies, tolerance stacks, Design Execution Sections, notes, and interface requirements.
• Define materials, mass properties, center of gravity, and interface criteria.
• Lead DFM/DFA reviews with Manufacturing Engineering and plant teams.
• Interpret CAE and designer-led analysis using NX Performance Predictor, NX Pre/Post, SimSolid, and Ansys results.
• Apply vehicle and transmission assembly structures, integration modules, tracking vehicles, and installation assemblies.
• Use GM product development, configuration, issue, and change-management processes and tools, including GVDP/GPDP, Momentum, eMERGE, GM Logic, APM, and Teamcenter.
• Use PRTS, Whysdom, and Jira to identify issues, drive corrective actions, and prevent recurrence.
• Benchmark internal and competitive designs and apply best practices, AUROS, and lessons learned.
• Lead technical discussions and present design recommendations across functional teams.
• Mentor designers and contribute to standard work, design methods, templates, and continuous improvement.
