This role is categorized as hybrid, meaning the selected candidate will be expected to work on‑site at the Warren Tech Center at least three days per week (or other frequency determined by their manager).
Role Summary
Join General Motors as an Engineering Designer- Lower Structure , where you will play a key role in developing innovative automotive solutions for our propulsion and lower‑structure systems. In this position, you will leverage advanced NX modeling tools, virtual integration methods, and data management systems to create high‑quality, manufacturable designs that support GM’s Global Vehicle Development Process.
Job Responsibilities
-
Develop virtual vehicle integration solutions in alignment with program requirements and basic design principles.
-
Create and refine NX math models, Criteria, and Typical Sections; ensure compliance with standard modeling methods.
-
Support the Global Vehicle Development Process, including all design sync points and release timing.
-
Apply fundamental theory and principles of virtual vehicle integration; perform higher‑level assignments as capability grows.
-
Provide solutions to non‑routine, moderately complex virtual integration issues.
-
Coordinate virtual and clearance studies from part level to complete vehicle, including usage/configuration validation.
-
Support fellow designers with design tasks, component requirements, and virtual integration needs.
-
Apply manufacturability, DFA, and integration considerations to part and subsystem designs.
-
Participate in—and when appropriate, lead—design and virtual reviews.
-
Document and maintain material, mass, and specification data within the math file.
-
Complete NX Analysis for assigned subsystems; apply results with support from the DLT or Senior Designers.
-
Collaborate closely with engineers and designers to meet product design requirements and timing.
-
Stay current on product developments, new technologies, and emerging design practices.
-
Share lessons learned and recommend updates to best practices.
-
Create math models and virtual layouts for complex components and subsystems.
-
Communicate proactively with the Design Manager, DLT, and DRE regarding timing, status, and technical concerns.
-
Ensure high‑quality, on‑time math releases for assigned components and subsystems.
Required Qualifications
-
Proficiency in NX CAD , Teamcenter , and VisMockup .
-
Knowledge of manufacturing processes, materials, and design‑for‑serviceability principles.
-
Bachelor’s degree in Engineering Technology or equivalent field.
