• Create parametric three-dimensional models of components, subassemblies and complete assemblies.
• Establish drive-unit mechanical layouts and packaging architecture.
• Participate in multidisciplinary technical-integration meetings.
• Apply design-for-manufacturing and design-for-assembly principles.
• Develop GD&T strategies and assembly-tolerance requirements.
• Coordinate designs through product-lifecycle-management processes.
• Resolve mechanical packaging and component-interface problems.
Eligibility
• Relevant degree in Mechanical Engineering or an equivalent discipline.
• Detailed understanding of electric-vehicle propulsion components and subsystems.
• At least five years of professional CATIA experience, with CATIA V6 preferred.
