Purpose of the Role:

a. To support the development of automotive design models by creating, modifying, refining, and maintaining full-scale and scale clay models based on design data, sketches, and engineering inputs. The role enables translation of design concepts into physical representations for design reviews, management evaluations, feasibility studies, and production intent assessments.

b. Delay in development and evaluation of vehicle design concepts. Inability to convert digital design proposals into physical models for review and decision-making. Increased dependency on external resources, resulting in higher development costs and longer lead times. Reduced quality and accuracy of design validation activities, impacting program timelines and design maturity.
