Mechanical Design Engineer I

Are you looking to work for a company that provides an innovative work environment, and your voice is heard?

We are looking for a multiple junior Mechanical Design Engineers to work in Guadalajara Mexico.

The Mechanical Design Engineer I will be responsible to work closely with experienced engineers to review customer requirements, specifications and manufacturing constraints in order to create comprehensive engineering product design details, specifications, drawings and related engineering changes utilizing and applying engineering principles, research data, and Design Engineering Standards (DES). Responsibilities also include analyzing test data, performing root-cause analysis, preparation of 5-Phase/5-Why analysis reports as needed.

• Support the engineers in the design and development of automotive instrument clusters (IPC) and head-up displays (HUDs), creation of 3D Models and 2D drawings including GD&T for all structural components considering DFM/DFA factors and assembly drawings, cost, material & component specifications, and other design factors
• Maintain open issues related to design developments during various stages of the development phase and develop contingency plans as needed.
• Support the engineers in the structural, thermal, and dynamic analysis using FEA, Lighting analysis using Light Simulation software, optical design and simulation using internally developed analytical tools and Light Simulation Software.
• Post Development: Provide technical/design support during the pre-production phase (PV testing, root-cause analysis, 5-Phase report preparation), during production preparation phase (Quality, Assembly, Process related areas).
• Provide technical/design support to assembly plants, suppliers related to quality, design related aspects.
• Execute customer design changes and reflect to internal design deliverables, and documentation.
• Support the engineers in the development of conceptual design, bill of materials (BOM), design feasibility studies for the RFQ response and technical presentation.
• Support the team in the development of DFMEA, DVP, Failure Analysis/5-Phase report creation
• Interface with customer to understand design requirements during the design specification/styling development, and product development phases. Compile specification confirmation Reports prior to the development.
• Perform benchmark analysis, attend trade shows (NAIAS) and compile market trend analysis of IPC/ HUD Products
• Assist in the prototype development during the build trials.
• Assist manufacturing plants, quality teams in resolving technical, manufacturing, quality issues.
• Assist in the testing & evaluation of IPC/HUD products as required.
