Brackets are the physical backbone of the powertrain interfacing directly with engines, transmissions, chassis, and thermal systems. In this role, you won’t be a cog in a massive machine stuck on a single tiny part for years. You will own full, end-to-end component release, working across cross-functional integration teams, managing suppliers, and gaining direct exposure to the entire vehicle architecture. If you are a contract DRE, a Tier-1 design engineer, or a skilled CAD designer ready to take total ownership of product releases from concept to production launch, this is your platform to step up.
Responsibilities

End-to-End Release Ownership: Manage powertrain brackets and structural mounting components from early concept and package feasibility through tooling, validation, and full volume production.
CAD & Packaging: Develop and refine 3D models and 2D detail drawings using CATIA V5 or Siemens NX, conducting packaging and clearance checks within complex powertrain environments.
Cross-Functional Integration: Collaborate with engine, chassis, NVH, thermal, and vehicle integration leads to resolve clearance, fit, and structural interface challenges.
Quality & Validation: Lead engineering documentation including DFMEA, DVP&R;, and GD&T; application; review validation test results (DV/PV) and drive root-cause analysis for build issues.
Engineering Change Management: Process engineering changes (CNs, release gates,



drawing updates) in PLM systems (Teamcenter/Enovia).
Supplier & Plant Support: Partner with supplier engineers on manufacturability (castings, stampings, weldments) and support physical prototype/pilot builds at manufacturing facilities.

Qualifications

Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Electromechanical, or related field.
Experience: 2+ years of experience in automotive product development, component design, or engineering release.

Required Skills

CAD & PLM Proficiency: Hands-on experience with CATIA V5, Siemens NX, or SolidWorks, along with familiarity in PLM data management software (e.g., Teamcenter).
Engineering Core: Solid understanding of GD&T;, drafting standards, and basic strength of materials / structural fundamentals.
Development Process Knowledge: Exposure to vehicle development tools (DFMEA, DVP&R;, or Engineering Change Orders).
Language: Professional working proficiency in English.

Preferred Skills

Background: Background in structural sheet metal, stampings, or aluminum/iron castings. Or plastics.
Direct Experience: Direct experience as a Design & Release Engineer (DRE) for OEM or Tier-1 systems (interior, exterior, body, or powertrain).
Experience Transitioning: Experience transitioning products from CAD concept into physical plant builds.
