hirify.global develops vehicles and mobility products spanning hardware, battery systems, software, safety, and entertainment technologies.

What you will do

• Develop and maintain production-oriented Siemens NX parametric models for engine components and subsystems.
• Create virtual vehicle integration solutions covering packaging, hard points, clearances, service access, interfaces, and subsystem configuration.
• Apply structural design principles covering load paths, stiffness, strength, fatigue, buckling, joints, materials, reinforcements, and local load introduction.
• Perform or support clearance, usage, configuration, virtual, and NX Analysis studies to guide design decisions.
• Apply GD&T, tolerance, variation-management, design-for-manufacturability, and design-for-assembly principles.
• Coordinate with design, engineering, manufacturing, quality, suppliers, plant, program, and service teams to resolve risks and deliver accurate, traceable, on-time math releases.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, engineering technology, or a related engineering discipline, or equivalent experience.
• Two to five years of experience in automotive or mechanical CAD, engineering design, or a related product-development environment.
• Demonstrated Siemens NX experience with parametric modeling, model organization, design intent, references, constraints, and model-quality practices.
• Understanding of automotive or mechanical structural design, including load paths, stiffness, strength, joints, reinforcements, materials, and interfaces.
• Experience with virtual integration, packaging, clearance studies, configurations, usage validation, or comparable design-integration activities.
• Working knowledge of GD&T, tolerance concepts, variation management, design for manufacturability, and design for assembly.
• Ability to maintain traceability from requirements through design, review, analysis, release, issue closure, and program deliverables.
• Ability to manage multiple interfaces and commitments, deliver accurately and on schedule, and communicate technical issues clearly.
• Ability and willingness to work onsite at the Warren Tech Center at least three days per week.

Nice to have

• Experience with structural sheet-metal design, stamping, forming, draw direction, flanges, hemming, joining interfaces, reinforcements, springback, and process capability.
• Knowledge of casting processes, including draft, wall thickness, ribs, fillets, porosity risk, machining, datum strategy, and process limitations.
• Advanced Siemens NX, NX Analysis, joining, DFMEA, tolerance analysis, durability, design optimization, or failure-mode experience.
• Experience leading configuration or design changes across load paths, interfaces, tooling, joining, validation, and released data.
• Ability to influence technical decisions without formal authority and coach less-experienced designers.
• Master’s degree in engineering or a related technical discipline.

Culture & Benefits

• Work within a cross-functional engineering environment focused on safe, connected, and manufacturable vehicle products.
• Collaborate through the Global Vehicle Development Process, design reviews, build, validation, and verified issue closure.
• Employee benefits and total rewards are available from the start of employment.
• hirify.global provides an inclusive, non-discriminatory workplace and reasonable accommodations for applicants with disabilities.
• hirify.global does not provide immigration-related sponsorship for this role, including H-1B, OPT, STEM OPT, CPT, TN, or J-1 support.
