The team may also be asked to lead and/or support innovation projects. The Lead/Senior Engineer, Body Structures is responsible for technical delivery to cost, quality & time for tasks and activities assigned to them by their module team line manager. Note that any engineer may be asked to work in a non-core module area as project needs dictate. The successful candidate therefore should be able to demonstrate a flexible approach. The Grade 3, PE CAD Engineer for this role will ideally be able to demonstrate relevant engineering experience, gained from working on module area systems design & development, from concept to production. Candidate requirements include: Degree qualified or similar qualification as a minimum. CAD operation skills required – Expectation for engineer to be able to create and manipulate geometry for primary communication of concepts/schemes. (Expectation 90%-time utilisation for geometry generation) Catia v5/v6 operative skills, to be able to demonstrate high technical competence – Generation of 3D geometry & sectional data. (Key module utilisation: Part design & Geometric Surface design) Experience of using TCUA (Team Centre) & PLM preferable. Engineering experience in delivery of the designated module systems in the automotive sector or similar industries. Evidence of engineering skills, including ability to manage & resolve engineering issues. Understands roles & needs of different client groups. Evidence of working effectively with cross-functional teams to achieve results. Compliance with company procedures & quality standards. Involvement in process improvements. Highly motivated with good logical reasoning. Strong numeracy & literacy with good organisational & communication skills. English language is essential; a second language would be advantageous. Capable of overcoming cultural & inter-functional barriers. A desire to strive for improvements to achieve high customer satisfaction. Main Activities & Tasks: Support the Lead Engineer, Body & Closures in all day-to-day activities. Support other activities as required. Engineering BoM development. Cost/weight pack development. Weight BoM management. PMXU generation – Part identification in BoM for unique or carryover status. DFMEA & DVP creation & maintenance. Design surface (CAS) feasibility ‘FC' checks. Provide feasibility advice & guidance. Engineering hard-point generation. Participate in cross-functional integration reviews for components & systems, considering technical application, form, function & harmonisation of the execution. Develop timing plans. Develop scope-of-work documents with key deliverables identified. Drive closure of issues & establish the cost, weight & timing impacts. Support the module deliverables through to the programme required gateway. Development of engineering systems & quality systems. Benchmarking of competitor vehicles & reporting of findings. Support the generation/development of design rules & guidelines. Deliver engineering project work for both parent company & 3rd party customers. Interface with cross-functional teams (Package, Analysis, Manufacturing, DVA etc) & implement recommendations where appropriate to create a right first-time release. Leading the development of the 3D and 2D models for closure & mechanism engineering. Storing and releasing data into TCUA and PLM. Support and development for automation in the generation of CAD of Multi Model Link Networks (also known as: Driver Model Networks or AVA Networks - Associative Vehicle Architecture/ Advanced Vehicle Architecture) – set-up demonstrations and roll out with the engineering team. Support and development for the generation & standardisation of kinematic models in the Catia – set-up demonstrations and roll out with the engineering team. Excellent package and opportunity.
