Role & responsibilities

- CAD Modeling & Design: Create complex 3D CAD models and assemblies of automotive components using CATIA ( Must ) and SolidWorks.
- 2D Drafting & Detailing: Generate precise 2D manufacturing drawings with advanced application of Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T;) according to ISO/ASME standards.
- Component Design & DFM/DFA: Design parts optimized for various manufacturing techniques -
- Casting & Forging: Draft angles, parting lines, wall thickness uniformity, and machining allowances.
- Sheet Metal: Bending allowances, notch design, stamping, and press tools considerations.
- Plastic Parts: Injection molding design rules, ribs, bosses, snap fits, and sink mark prevention.
- Weldments & Structural Joining: Welded assembly design, joint preparation, and distortion considerations.
- Tolerance Analysis: Perform tolerance stack-up analyses to ensure proper fitment, clearance, and functional performance within complex automotive assemblies.
- Design Validation: Collaborate with cross-functional teams (simulation, manufacturing, quality) to validate designs and optimize for manufacturability (DFM) and assembly (DFA).
- Engineering Documentation: Prepare Bill of Materials (BOM),



engineering change requests (ECR/ECO), design documents, and technical specs.
