Our world-class engineering teams operate with a non-conventional automotive product development philosophy of high interdisciplinary collaboration, flat organizational structure, and technical contribution at all levels. You will be expected to question and be questioned, to create, to innovate. You must want to work in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial company. We are building real products. This must excite you. You’ll work alongside accomplished, world-renowned engineers on perhaps the most exciting automotive programs in existence today.

• Full product design responsibility (system ownership) – from concept through production launch and ramp
• 3D design and GD&T drawings of complex parts and assemblies
• Own basic testing & evaluation and/or support advanced testing and failure/root cause analysis
• Optimize designs via analytical, numerical, and/or empirical assessments, (DFMEA, fault tree, decision matrices, etc.)

• Support continuous product and process improvement and investigate industry standards (as well as our own) to continually raise the bar
• Mentor less experienced engineers through the design process

• Strong engineering fundamentals in materials and mechanics
• Detail-oriented personality with solid documentation and reporting skills

• Don’t worry if you don’t have all of these skills mastered – as long as you are excited about solving the problem we will guide you through it
