Vehicle Structural Engineer

Your Role: Vehicle Structural Engineer

Engineers at D3D have a tremendous opportunity to drive significant results through the design of new process technologies as we launch new products, and processes, and continually strive to improve performance and cost optimization. You will be working for an organization that values a strong collaboration between all Operations functions to ensure we are designing optimal manufacturing processes that are safe, cost effective, reliable and maintainable.

We are seeking an experienced and motivated engineer to support the next generation of industry-leading vehicle structural architecture development. We’re committed to transforming the vehicle structural systems away from traditional body in white to a 3D printing enabled system using new materials and new technologies.  To do this, we need a forward-looking and innovative engineer who will help shape the future of automotive structures.

Your Key Objectives:

• Refining, generating and executing new technical solutions for vehicle structures to support our new internal vehicle programs, and joint development efforts with other OEMs

• Design and run CAE analysis on Node based vehicle structures

• Provide hands-on technical leadership for advanced component or technology development

• Develop engineering designs and conduct design analysis of existing programs

• Responsible for structural integrity and compliance to Divergent technical and quality standards throughout the vehicle’s life cycle

• Production engineering design release of structural components and subsystems

• Communicate information to and from internal and external customer organizations

• Balancing business imperatives, including but not limited to cost, mass, complexity, and timing

• Work cross-functionally to implement cost reduction, methods and product improvements, and support prototype and production build activities
