Description
On-Site role Job Description: Lead Dimensional Engineer – Autonomous Vehicle Sensors (Multi-Platform) This is a high-visibility, mission-critical role within our engineering organization. The successful candidate will concurrently own the dimensional management for multiple major vehicle programs a massive and technically demanding scope that spans different architectures. You will be the bridging authority between advanced sensor hardware, vehicle architecture, and manufacturing assembly. If you are a master of dimensional variation who wants to directly impact the deployment of safe, autonomous fleets, this role is built for you. Core Competencies & Technical Mastery: Autonomous Sensor Architecture: Deep understanding of the unique dimensional, structural, and alignment requirements of AV sensor suites (LiDAR, Radar, Cameras). Advanced Variation Analysis: Proficiency in performing both 1D and 3D Dimensional Variation Analysis (DVA) stack-ups to evaluate design feasibility GD&T Expertise: Advanced-level proficiency in ASME Y14.5 GD&T principles, with a proven track record of creating, validating, and optimizing complex technical drawings. CAD & 3DX Interrogation: Practical expertise using CATIA V6 and 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX) to visualize, manipulate, and interrogate 3D models for dimensional evaluation, creating reference geometry (planes, points), and mapping critical functional datums. Manufacturing & Assembly Insight: Strong foundational knowledge of manufacturing processes and vehicle assembly sequence. Communication & Technical Leadership: Ability to translate complex statistical variation data into clear, actionable architectural feedback for cross-functional teams and executive leadership. Key Responsibilities: Multi-Program Ownership: Serve as the ultimate dimensional authority for sensor integration across parallel vehicle platforms, successfully managing massive architectural workloads concurrently. Functional Requirements Definition: Lead the upfront definition of vehicle build and commodity-specific functional requirements to establish an ironclad baseline for downstream DVA validation. Datum & Tolerance Design: Establish robust datum schemes, sensor mounting locator strategies, and tolerance allocations to ensure sensor-to-body and sensor-to-sensor co-calibration stability. Fixture Design & Approval: Review and formally approve internal and supplier metrology fixture concepts, ensuring alignment with strict program assembly and measurement metrics. Measurement & Metrology Strategy: Define and implement comprehensive measurement strategies, identifying critical validation points from the single part level up to full vehicle assembly. Supplier PPAP & Collaboration: Partner directly with Supplier Quality (SQ) to evaluate supplier capability, define acceptable limits, and manage engineering escalations to protect program targets. Cross-Functional Feedback: Provide active architectural loop feedback regarding layout changes needed to make the vehicle body and sensor brackets reliably assemblable. Required Experience & Attributes: Experience: 8 to 10 years of dedicated experience in dimensional management, variation simulation, or metrology within the automotive, aerospace, or autonomous robotics sectors. Education: Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Fixture Design Engineering, or a closely related technical field. Statistical Rigor: Strong understanding of Variation Simulation Analysis tools, statistical process control (SPC), and basic statistical concepts (CP,CPK, standard deviation, gauge R&R studies). AV Mindset: A proactive, solutions-oriented professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment and understands that sensor dimensional engineering is a primary driver of vehicle safety and autonomous software performance.
