About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Develop BIW concepts using structural castings, steel and aluminum stampings, extrusions, roll forms, composites, and hybrid assemblies.
- Lead casting reviews covering alloy, wall thickness, ribs, draft, parting lines, gating, porosity, distortion, machining, tooling, and datum strategy.
- Identify opportunities for part consolidation, joint reduction, attachment integration, mass reduction, and assembly simplification.
- Review structural sections, load paths, crash management, stiffness, fatigue, durability, and local attachment requirements with CAE teams.
- Develop mixed-material strategies using FDS, resistance/MIG/laser welding, FSW, SPR, bolts, mechanical fasteners, adhesives, and sealers.
- Evaluate joints for material stack, access, loading, fatigue, corrosion, sealing, heat input, distortion, cycle time, equipment, and repairability.
- Define flange, access, edge-distance, adhesive, surface-treatment, sealing, and corrosion requirements; support coupon and subsystem validation.
- Assess suppliers, simulations, tooling, process controls, machining, inspection, quality plans, prototype trials, and casting/joining root causes.
Requirements
What you’ll need- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Materials, Metallurgical, Manufacturing, Welding Engineering, or a related field.
- +3 years of automotive BIW, structural, casting, materials, or joining experience.
