The position requires strong technical capability in CAD modeling, vehicle systems packaging, design automation, and cross-functional engineering coordination.
Contract Term: This is a long-term contract position.
**Work Location: On-site at Windsor, ON with some travel to the US. The candidate must be legally eligible to work in Canada and able to cross the Canada-U.S. border for occasional business travel, , including possessing or being able to obtain any required travel documentation.**
Responsibilities
- Create CAD parametric math models for vehicle commodities using CATIA and/or Siemens NX.
- Apply Knowledge-Based Engineering (KBE) template modeling techniques to support advanced vehicle design and development.
- Develop, package, and synthesize complex vehicle systems within CAD environments.
- Define CAD model architecture, construction techniques, and template modeling structures.
- Create master development sections, packaging sections, and requirement sections for vehicle systems.
- Develop and maintain KBE design templates, analysis templates, and CAD requirements as standards change.
- Update and apply parameters and standards for specific engine systems and integrate them into CAD design templates.
- Support advanced design activities for fuel tanks, cooling bottles/reservoirs, and air induction systems.
- Perform conceptual design and parametric studies for air induction systems while meeting functional design targets.
- Generate initial fuel tank and cooling reservoir designs that meet design and performance requirements.
- Perform or support system-specific performance analysis for fuel, cooling, and air induction components.
- Support flexible parts analysis and develop deformed shape envelopes using advanced methods.
- Simulate and generate routing optimization studies for flexible components such as cooling hoses, HVAC hoses, brake hoses, steering hoses, low-voltage/high-voltage wiring, and convolutes.
- Apply associative parametric modeling techniques to improve design automation and model efficiency.
- Develop CAD modeling automation capabilities using NX design templates.
- Conduct competitive benchmarking studies to support design improvement and validation.
- Apply design-for-manufacturing best practices and engineering guidelines during design development.
- Supervise or support testing activities for assigned systems, as required.
- Train other CATIA/NX engineers on KBE modeling techniques, CAD architecture, template modeling, and construction methods.
