DESCRIPTION

Key Responsibilities:

Manage the product life cycle of automotive components.
Utilize Creo and Windchill CAD design and detailing skills.
Provide manufacturing engineering support.
Offer application engineering support.
Apply GD&T and perform tolerance stack-up analysis.
Demonstrate basic DFMEA knowledge.
Interact with cross-functional teams.
Investigate Value Package Introduction (VPI) program team or field-based issues, understand causal mechanisms, recommend appropriate action, and own problem resolution from a design perspective.
Apply and support the execution of processes such as Critical Design Decisions, System Design and Validation Consideration Checklist, Design Review, and tools such as iDFMEA, DVA, GD&T, CREO, and ANSYS Workbench.
Obtain input and negotiate with cross-functional and cross-discipline technical experts and senior-level designers to communicate the component and subsystem design intent.
Support design decision-making in the areas of concept selection, concept optimization, and design specifications.
Own problem resolution for moderately complex components, products, systems, subsystems, or services.
Provide independent execution of established work processes and systems while developing technology or product knowledge.
Engage with the improvement of systems and processes.
Coordinate and direct work amongst technicians and/or temporary student employees.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Cross-Functional Design Integration : Translates the value package requirements that include the voices of many stakeholders into virtual designs and communicates the capability of the design through an approved cross-functional design review.
Mechanical Design Modeling and Analysis : Creates Computer-Aided Design models in accordance with Cummins standards to represent architectural or product-level system design concepts and to enable completion of various system-level computer analyses such as Dimensional Variation Analysis and Finite Element Analysis.
Mechanical Design of Mechanical Systems : Acquires and applies an in-depth understanding of mechanical systems to create innovative and sound design concepts that meet Cummins and customer expectations.
Mechanical Design Specification : Creates complete specifications in the form of solid models, configured engineering bill of materials, and detailed drawings that cross-functionally communicate the information required to manufacture and inspect a product per its design intent.
Product Function Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis : Impacts product design decisions through the utilization and/or interpretation of computational tools and methods that predict the capability of a product's function relative to its system, sub-system, and/or component level requirements.
System Requirements Engineering : Uses appropriate methods and tools to translate stakeholder needs into verifiable requirements to which designs are developed; establishes acceptance criteria for the system of interest through analysis, allocation, and negotiation; tracks the status of requirements throughout the system lifecycle.
Collaborates : Building partnerships and working collaboratively with others to meet shared objectives.
Communicates Effectively : Developing and delivering multi-mode communications that convey a clear understanding of the unique needs of different audiences.
Decision Quality : Making good and timely decisions that keep the organization moving forward.
Drives Results : Consistently achieving results, even under tough circumstances.
Self-Development : Actively seeking new ways to grow and be challenged using both formal and informal development channels.
Values Differences : Recognizing the value that different perspectives and cultures bring to an organization.
Product Failure Mode Avoidance : Mitigates potential product failure modes by identifying interfaces, functions, functional requirements, interactions, control factors, noise factors, and prioritized potential failure modes and potential failure causes.
Product Configuration and Change Management : Establishes a baseline of identified product artifacts to be placed under configuration management; releases, tracks, controls, and communicates changes from concept to obsolescence.
Technical Documentation : Documents information based on knowledge gained as part of technical function activities; communicates to stakeholders to enable improved technical productivity and effective knowledge transfer.
Product Development Execution, Monitoring, and Control : Plans, schedules, coordinates, and executes the activities involved in developing a product to a respectively aligned hierarchy of requirements and technical profiles; monitors and communicates across functional boundaries to meet project resource and quality expectations.

Qualifications:

Bachelor's degree in an appropriate STEM field, or equivalent experience, is required.
This position may require licensing for compliance with export controls or sanctions regulations.

QUALIFICATIONS

Skills and Experience:

Preferred candidates would have relevant experience working in either a temporary student employment environment (intern, co-op, or other extracurricular team activities) or as an early career professional in a relevant technical discipline area.
Knowledge of MS Office and CREO tools is also preferred.
