Job Description

• Have an operational responsibility in the day-to-day development, new designs and changes to existing products. Product and procedures are given; however, the work requires experience and the capacity to perform analysis and draw conclusions.
• Focus on own technical area with no or limited interfaces to other technical areas.
• Designing (as needed) cooling systems components and sub-components for PWTI -ICE (powertrain installation - internal combustion engines)
• Designing (as needed) exhaust systems components and sub-components for PWTI -ICE (powertrain installation - internal combustion engines)
• Ensuring new designs fulfill business targets, requirements and Quality, Delivery, Cost, and Feature targets
• Front-loading work to ensure robust early-stage releases and stable late stage releases
• Releasing components as applicable to resolve maintenance issues or secure project deliveries
• Help to engineer responsible for developing modular systems and components to optimize part diversity

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, or a related field. A Master’s degree is often preferred.
• Professional Engineering (PE) license may be required in some regions.

Experience:

• 5+ years of experience in mechanical engineering, with a focus on powertrain systems (engines, transmissions, drivetrains, electric motors, hybrid systems, etc.).
• Proven experience in design, analysis, testing, and integration of powertrain components and systems.
• Familiarity with vehicle integration, electrical systems, and control systems is a plus, especially in hybrid and electric powertrain systems.

Technical Skills:

• 3D CAD modeling (e.g., CATIA, SolidWorks, AutoCAD, PTC Creo).
• Proficiency with Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for structural and thermal simulations.
• Experience with powertrain simulation tools (e.g., GT-Power, MATLAB/Simulink, Model-Based Design).
• Strong knowledge of mechanical systems such as gearing, bearings, lubrication, cooling, and materials specific to powertrain systems.
• Expertise in component testing, validation, and troubleshooting for powertrain systems.
• Experience in manufacturing processes related to powertrain components (casting, machining, assembly, etc.).

Soft Skills:

• Excellent problem-solving and critical thinking abilities.
• Strong communication skills for collaborating with teams, suppliers, and stakeholders.
• Ability to lead projects, mentor junior engineers, and manage cross-functional teams.
