- Partner with Design Engineering to influence part geometry, locators, and interfaces to meet dimensional and craftsmanship targets
- Support top-down and bottom-up dimensional integration, ensuring alignment with vehicle-level requirements
- Review and approve drawings, CAD releases, and engineering changes from a dimensional standpoint
- Collaborate with Manufacturing Engineering on fixture concepts, locating strategies, and build assumptions
- Support Quality and Manufacturing teams during issue resolution, including gap/flush, fit, and alignment concerns
- nalyze build and measurement data (CMM, scan data, build reports) to validate models and drive corrective actions
- Lead or support dimensional root cause analysis, proposing effective countermeasures and design or process improvements
- Present dimensional status, risks, and recommendations in design and program reviews
- Support supplier discussions related to dimensional feasibility, tolerance capability, and corrective actions
- Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field
- 7-8 years of experience in dimensional engineering, tolerance analysis, or geometric integration within automotive or other high-volume manufacturing environments
- Strong working knowledge of GD&T (ASME Y14.5) with demonstrated application on production-intent designs
- Hands-on experience with 1D/3D tolerance analysis tools, such as 3DCS
- Proven experience supporting programs from concept through production launch, including detailed design, DV, PV, and SOP
- bility to interpret CAD models, engineering drawings, and build strategies to define robust dimensional requirements
- Demonstrated experience working cross-functionally with Design Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, and Suppliers
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, including dimensional root cause analysis and corrective action development
- bility to clearly communicate technical requirements, risks, and trade-offs to diverse stakeholders
- Solid understanding of manufacturing process capability and material-driven tolerances across common automotive components, including:
- Stampings (steel and aluminum): spring back, forming variation, trim
- tolerance, and hemming effects
- Castings (HPDC, LPDC, sand): draft, wall-thickness variation, shrink, machining stock, and post-machining datums
- Injection-molded plastics: material shrink, warpage, fiber orientation,
- Castings (HPDC, LPDC, sand): draft, wall-thickness variation, shrink, machining stock, and post-machining datums
- tooling condition, and environmental influences
- Extrusions: profile variation, twist, bow, and cut-length tolerances
- bility to translate material behavior and process capability into realistic GD&T schemes and tolerance assumptions during design
- Experience assessing supplier manufacturing feasibility and tolerance capability during sourcing and design reviews
- Experience in an automotive OEM or Tier-1 supplier environment
- Experience owning or contributing to DVA / DVP / black-box tolerance models, including compliant (flexible) part modeling to represent real-world assembly behavior
- Hands-on experience modeling part compliance, locator strategies, and assembly sequence effects using 3D tolerance analysis tools (3DCS)
- bility to apply compliant modeling techniques to assess gap/flush, fit, and functional performance of flexible components such as stampings, plastic trims, seals, and closures
- Knowledge of fixture strategy, locating schemes, and build sequence development
- Experience supporting closures, BIW, interior, or exterior systems
- Familiarity with craftsmanship targets, including flush, gap, and visual quality requirements
- Experience supporting low-volume programs or new product launch environments
