Job Description

Overview:
We are seeking an experienced and detail-driven Advanced Vehicle Architecture Engineer with a strong background in Master Section (MS) development for both upper and underbody vehicle systems. In this role, you will be responsible for creating, proposing, and optimizing master sections that define key vehicle structure interfaces, ensuring alignment with performance, manufacturing, safety, and styling requirements.
Responsibilities:
  • Develop and propose Master Sections (MS) for vehicle zones including A/B/C pillars, rocker panels, floor sections, roof rails, engine bay, rear body, and crash structures.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including Body Engineering, Safety, CAE, Studio Design, Manufacturing, Closures, and Chassis to define and iterate on optimal structural sections.
  • Drive the integration of master sections into vehicle architecture, ensuring spatial, functional, and regulatory compliance.
  • Use 2D and 3D tools (Catia V5 & V6) to create section profiles and interfaces aligned with package, crash, NVH, durability, and ergonomic constraints.
  • Support structural load path development, joining strategies, and section stiffness optimization through close collaboration with simulation teams.
  • Translate styling and design intent into technically feasible sections while balancing weight, cost, and manufacturability.
  • Manage the interface between BIW and adjacent systems (e.g., Closures, Interior, Thermal, Electrical) through well-defined master sections.
  • Provide support for virtual builds, packaging studies, DVPs, and prototype evaluations.
  • Conduct benchmarking and competitive analysis to guide best-in-class structural layout.
  • Maintain documentation and change management of master section libraries across vehicle programs.

  • Strong proficiency in 2D/3D CAD tools such as CATIA V5/V6.
  • Deep understanding of vehicle structural systems, packaging constraints, joining technologies, and performance requirements (crash, NVH, stiffness).
  • Experience with section optimization methods, including collaboration with CAE and manufacturing teams.
  • Strong communication and documentation skills with the ability to present section proposals to stakeholders.

Qualifications:
    • 5+ years of experience in vehicle architecture, BIW design, or master section development.
    • Strong proficiency in 2D/3D CAD tools such as CATIA V5/V6.
