Underbody Process Engineering Standards Specialist- Assembly Stellantis United States, Michigan, Auburn Hills Aug 31, 2026 The Underbody Process Engineering Standards Specialist - Assembly will develop and maintain advanced manufacturing processes, specifications, standards, and process sheets for propulsion systems assembly, including engines, transmissions, e-Drives, and e-Motors. Working through simultaneous engineering, the role will define assembly concepts, automation, facilities, and equipment requirements for North American product and process launches. Near term, the role will also develop advanced process cost estimates, assumptions, and methods. This responsibility will transition to Industrial Strategy once the standards, documentation, and handoff requirements are established.

Key responsibilities include:

Develop and maintain propulsion assembly specifications, standards, design rules, and process sheets

Lead advanced assembly process development, validation, and continuous improvement

Define process assumptions, equipment requirements, automation concepts, and facility interfaces

Develop near-term advanced process cost estimates, assumptions, and methods

Establish the documentation, readiness criteria, and handoff to transition cost estimation to Industrial Strategy

Develop concept layouts and process representations

Assess product and process feasibility through simultaneous engineering

Identify DTM opportunities to improve cost, quality, and throughput

Prepare standards, process sheets, cost assumptions, and open items for UPE execution handoff

Basic Qualifications:

Bachelor's degree

Minimum 10 years of automotive project experience focused on engine or transmission assembly systems

Experience developing propulsion assembly specifications, standards, process sheets, advanced concepts, and early cost estimates

Experience managing advanced process development, validation, industrialization handoff, and launch support

Experience supporting product and process introductions from advanced definition through RFQ, sourcing, commissioning, launch, and execution handoff

Strong Excel and PowerPoint skills

Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Ability to communicate with executive and senior management

Strong team collaboration skills

Ability to travel 10-20% to Propulsion Division plants and suppliers

Preferred Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in engineering; mechanical preferred, electrical or industrial acceptable
• Minimum (FIVE) 5 years of industrial project management experience
• Familiarity with 3D design and Teamcenter Visualization
