About Strategic Vehicle Integration (SVI) and Vehicle Configuration:

Vehicle Configuration is a team of about 55 experts within Strategic Vehicle Integration that effectively forms a bridge between Creative Design Studios and Engineering to integrate and enable our future products while protecting occupant accommodations.

Strategic Vehicle Integration is an aspiration area for many engineers and designers because it:

  • Focuses on Total Vehicle Integration.
  • Works predominately on the early phase development of our most exciting programs. These are new architectures and major programs where there is the most opportunity to make lasting contributions that really matter.
  • Is driven to develop solutions to improve our vehicles and then work with key stakeholders in Design Studios and Engineering to make them into reality.
  • Has a very broad scope of responsibility which provides tremendous opportunity to grow advanced technical skills.
  • Is the champion for protecting occupant accommodations such as visibility, spaciousness, and cargo/storage.

Available Combined Specialist role within SVI Vehicle Configuration:

  • All roles are high-end CAD intensive.
  • All roles involve complex, high-level assemblies with data from many sources.
  • All roles require exceptional organization and communication skills.

Role 1: Seating Property 3D math creation Specialist:

  • Includes shipping dimensions, marketing dimensions, export dimensions, and numerous users across the company.
  • Early GA work is frequently ahead of interior surface development so this person will need to manipulate typical sections and historical solutions to create the initial feasible 3-D interior trim to be evaluated.
  • Responsible for releasing math and drawings on time to meet major program milestones.
  • The most advanced specialists will have strong enough CAD skills to also heavily support the creation and optimization of parametric tools and CAD processes that will redefine and accelerate the way we do this work.
