Job
Description
Leads the design and validation of BIW systems, ensuring structural performance, manufacturability, and regulatory compliance. Collaborates cross-functionally, mentors junior engineers, and drives innovation to deliver robust, production-ready BIW solutions DME / BE 6- 12 years Lead the concept development, detailed design, and integration of BIW structures including pillars, roof rails, floor assembly, front/rear modules, and reinforcements. Develop lightweight, cost-effective, and structurally robust BIW solutions using advanced materials and manufacturing processes. Mentor junior engineers and provide technical guidance across project stages. Ensure timely release of CAD models and 2D drawings with accurate GD&T and tolerance analysis. Coordinate with CAE, NVH, Crash, Manufacturing, Quality, and Serviceability teams for integrated vehicle performance. Manage design feasibility with respect to welding, joining techniques (spot weld, MIG, adhesive bonding, laser), and assembly constraints. Interact with suppliers and manufacturing for tool validation, part feasibility, and cost optimization. Support design validation activities including prototype builds, physical testing, and correlation with simulation. Contribute to DFMEA, DVP, BOM generation, change management, and gate reviews. Ensure compliance with regulatory crash, pedestrian safety, and emission standard Advanced CAD Proficiency: Expert in CATIA V5/V6 or Siemens NX for 3D modeling and 2D detailing System-Level BIW Knowledge: In-depth understanding of full vehicle BIW architecture (including pillars, cross members, floor, roof, rails, etc.). Master Section preparation and management Design for Manufacturing (DFM): Competent in tooling feasibility, stamping guidelines, and assembly integration, Joinery definitions CAE Interpretation: Skilled in reading and applying CAE/FEA feedback (crash, modal, fatigue) to refine designs. GD&T and Tolerance Analysis: Strong skills in geometric dimensioning and tolerance stack-up studies. DFMEA / DVP: Experienced in failure mode analysis and test validation planning for BIW parts. Change Management: Proficient in engineering change process, release management, and BoM configuration. PLM Systems: Hands-on experience with systems like Teamcenter, Enovia
