BIW surfacing engineers

Job Summary: We are looking for a highly skilled and creative BIW Surfacing Design Engineer to join our automotive product development team in Pune. The primary responsibility will be creating and refining high-quality, Class-A and Class-B free-form surfaces for Body-in-White (BIW) components, ensuring aesthetic intent is maintained while meeting structural, functional, and manufacturing requirements. Proficiency in advanced surfacing modules of PTC Creo is mandatory.

Key Responsibilities:

• 3D Surfacing & Modeling: Design and develop complex 3D parametric and free-form surfaces for BIW structural components (e.g., body side panels, roof, floor, pillars, closure inners/outers) using advanced tools in PTC Creo (including ISDX/Style and Freestyle).
• Concept to Production: Translate aesthetic and package data (2D master sections, design sketches, or scan data) into robust 3D surface models and detailed solid geometry for sheet metal stamping components.
• Surface Quality: Ensure all created surfaces meet high-quality standards (G0, G1, G2, G3 continuity) to ensure aesthetic appeal and smooth transition for downstream tooling and manufacturing.
• Design for Manufacturing (DFM): Work closely with tooling, CAE, and manufacturing teams to ensure the design is feasible for sheet metal stamping, welding, and assembly processes.
• Vehicle Integration & Packaging: Support vehicle integration and packaging studies, check for clearances, and incorporate interfaces for surrounding components.
• 2D Documentation: Create and release detailed 2D engineering drawings with annotations, adhering to internal and industry drafting standards.
• GD&T and Tolerance Analysis: Apply Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) principles and support tolerance stack-up analysis to guarantee proper component fit and function.
• Data Management: Manage CAD data, part versions, and Bill of Materials (BOMs) within a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) system.
• Design Reviews: Actively participate in design reviews and propose solutions to design and feasibility challenges.

Required Qualifications:

• Education: Bachelor of Engineering (B.E./B.Tech.) in Mechanical Engineering, Automobile Engineering, or Production Engineering.
• Experience: 3 to 5 years of experience in BIW (Body-in-White) design and surfacing within the automotive industry.
• Technical Skills (Must-Have):
• Expert-level proficiency in PTC Creo Parametric for both solid and advanced surface modeling.
• Demonstrated experience in creating complex, high-quality 2D and 3D surfacing for sheet metal parts.
• Strong fundamental knowledge of automotive BIW structures and component functions.
• Good understanding of sheet metal stamping and fabrication processes.
• Proficiency in applying GD&T and interpreting engineering drawings.

Desired Skills (Good to Have):

• Experience with a PLM system such as PTC Windchill.
