Position Description:

We're looking for a detail-oriented Design Release Engineer to support the design validation and release process for component/system - e.g., chassis, powertrain, electrical. This role owns risk analysis, design compliance, and supplier coordination activities that ensure components meet engineering and quality standards from concept through production release.

Exterior Scope:

The individuals in these positions will support front and rear closures geometry and engineering execution - including hood, doors, decklid/liftgate, and adjoining parts. Scope includes developing 3D geometry and design concepts that meet crash load case requirements, optimizing designs through analytical and physical assessment, ensuring compliance with federal regulations, and delivering fit/finish craftsmanship through proper GD&T implementation.

Skills Required:

PFMEA CAD and Studio Interface -should be able to work collaboratively with Studio and Design teams to translate styling surfaces into feasible, releasable closures geometry - for example, taking a Studio-intent surface for a hood or liftgate and developing the underlying engineering structure (hinges, latches, seals, reinforcements) in CAD (NX or CATIA) while maintaining design intent, class-A surface quality, and fit/finish requirements. This includes running interference checks against mating components and iterating with Studio through multiple design reviews to resolve conflicts between styling and engineering constraints.

Skills Preferred:

3D Modeling / Candidates should demonstrate proficiency in 3D CAD software (NX or CATIA) used to design, develop, and release automotive closures subsystems and adjoining parts, including component manufacturing and assembly processes. An example expectation would be building parametric surface/solid models of a closure panel or hinge reinforcement, applying GD&T per drawing standards, and running clash/interference checks against mating hardware before releasing to production.

Experience Required:

familiarity with DFMEA able to take measurements in

CAD Education Required:

Bachelor's Degree Education Preferred:
