- Lead Dimensional Variation Analysis (DVA) activities to support feasibility assessments and design validation.
- Oversee drawing reviews and dimensional validation processes for assigned vehicle systems and components.
- Develop and implement measurement strategies to support manufacturing and quality objectives.
- Approve fixtures and dimensional tooling in alignment with project and engineering requirements.
- Perform 1D and 3D stack-up analyses to evaluate dimensional feasibility and variation risks.
- Support build troubleshooting activities related to dimensional and fitment issues.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to communicate dimensional risks, requirements, and solutions.
- Mentor and support team members on dimensional engineering best practices and methodologies.
Requirements
- A master’s degree in mechanical engineering or a related discipline
- 6+ years of experience in dimensional engineering or dimensional management
- Advanced knowledge of GD&T principles, including the ability to create and validate technical drawings
- Proficiency performing 1D/3D stack-up analyses and dimensional variation simulations to evaluate design feasibility
- Knowledge of manufacturing processes, measurement systems, and process control fundamentals
- Understanding of dimensional engineering deliverables throughout the vehicle development process
- Experience supporting build troubleshooting and dimensional issue resolution
- Proficiency with CATIA V5/V6 for dimensional evaluation, model interrogation, reference geometry creation, and identification of functional datums and interfaces
- Proficiency with standard PC tools such as Excel, PowerPoint, and Word
- Ability to organize and present complex technical information in a clear, concise, and impactful manner across the organization
- Capability to train and mentor team members
- Familiarity with 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX) and related PLM workflows is preferred
Benefits:
