DESCRIPTION
Develop exterior trim part models from early concepts through detailed design maturation
Create and refine A-surface and engineering surfaces while maintaining design intent and downstream manufacturability
Define part geometry, interfaces, attachment features, locating schemes, and datum structures
Apply GD&T and support tolerance stack-up reviews to achieve fit, function, and assembly targets
Collaborate with DREs, styling, manufacturing, suppliers, quality, and tooling teams to resolve design issues
Apply DFM principles and incorporate feedback from toolmakers and manufacturing engineers
Support design reviews, prototype builds, tool reviews, part inspections, and engineering changes
Maintain accurate models, drawings, and product data in 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX)
REQUIREMENTS
Bachelor's degree in Engineering.
5 years of Automotive exterior trim design experience from concept through design maturation
Hands-on experience with A-surface part modeling and production-intent product definition
Working knowledge of GD&T, datum schemes, locating strategy, and tolerance stack-up
Experience applying DFM principles to automotive components
Proficiency with 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX) and relevant CAD modeling workflows
Additional relevant skills: Class-A surface requirements, styling-to-engineering surface transition, and surface quality checks; injection molding and other relevant trim processes (draft, wall thickness, ribs, bosses, clips, shutoffs, undercuts); material selection, shrinkage, warpage, sink, read-through, and appearance considerations; digital mock-up, packaging, assembly access, serviceability, and adjacent-part interfaces; engineering change control, design reviews, and supplier collaboration
