Overview :
BS or MS Degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field. 1-5 years of experience in mechanical design, preferably within the automotive industry.
This position is focused on the design and development of chassis components including wheels, brakes, fuel systems, and exhaust systems.
The role involves working closely with cross-functional engineering teams and suppliers to deliver robust, manufacturable, and high-quality components throughout the product development lifecycle.
This is a technical engineering role requiring strong CAD design expertise, analytical thinking, and the ability to manage multiple design activities in a fast-paced development environment.
The engineer will play a key role in resolving technical challenges, supporting validation activities, and ensuring components meet performance, quality, and cost targets.
Experience in automotive design, particularly in chassis systems, and proficiency in CAD tools such as CATIA V6 are essential.
Familiarity with design for manufacturability and basic CAE result interpretation is highly valued.
Key Responsibilities:
Chassis Design & Development
Design and develop chassis components (wheels, brakes, fuel systems, exhaust, etc.) using CAD tools
Create and maintain 3D models and 2D drawings with full GD&T application
Ensure robust modeling practices to support design changes and revisions
Collaborate with design and test engineers to validate component performance and functionality
Support design reviews and contribute to continuous product improvement
Technical Problem Solving & Validation
Analyze and resolve technical issues related to component design and integration
Interpret and utilize CAE results (stiffness, vibration, natural frequency, etc.) to support design decisions
Propose and implement design modifications based on test results and validation feedback
Ensure compliance with engineering standards and performance requirements
Supplier & Cross-Functional Collaboration
Work closely with suppliers to define technical requirements and evaluate design proposals
Support sourcing activities by reviewing supplier feasibility and technical capabilities
Coordinate with manufacturing, quality, and program teams to ensure smooth development and industrialization
Participate in issue resolution related to part quality, fitment, and performance
Project Coordination & Execution
Manage multiple design projects and ensure alignment with development timelines
Support program milestones and deliverables throughout the product lifecycle
Provide regular updates on design progress, risks, and technical issues
Ensure timely release of drawings and engineering documentation
Documentation & Reporting
Prepare and maintain technical documentation, reports, and design records
Communicate test results, design changes, and technical decisions clearly to stakeholders
Ensure proper documentation of lessons learned and design improvements
Profile:
Detail-oriented mechanical design engineer with a strong technical foundation and problem-solving mindset
Ability to manage multiple design activities while maintaining high quality and accuracy
Comfortable working in cross-functional teams and interfacing with suppliers
Strong ownership with the ability to take initiative and drive technical decisions with moderate supervision
Adaptable and eager to learn new tools, standards, and methodologies
Effective communicator capable of translating complex technical topics to diverse stakeholders
Must Have:
2-5 years of experience in mechanical design engineering, preferably in automotive
Strong proficiency in CATIA V6
Experience in 3D modeling (solid and surface) and 2D drawings with GD&T
Knowledge of chassis components (brakes, wheels, exhaust, fuel systems, etc.)
Understanding of design for manufacturability (DFM) principles
Ability to analyze and interpret basic CAE results
Experience working with suppliers on technical topics
Strong multitasking and project management skills
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field
Good to Have:
Previous experience in chassis design within automotive OEM or Tier 1
Familiarity with PLM tools such as Teamcenter or Windchill
Experience with engineering change management processes (ECR / ECN)
Exposure to validation and testing environments
Knowledge of automotive standards and development processes
