Senior Mechanical Engineer

Your Job

In this role, you'll be an integral part of a team responsible for developing new and sustaining current automotive antenna products.

You will lead the design of Vehicle Antenna Systems (VAS) from concept through release, supporting both new product development and enhancements to existing designs.

The successful candidate will drive design optimization using advanced analysis techniques such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA), qualifying new designs and materials against customer specifications and functional requirements.

Responsibilities also include troubleshooting and engineering analysis of failed parts during validation testing to identify root causes and recommend design improvements, ensuring robust performance and cost-effective solutions throughout the product lifecycle.

Our Team

In the Connected Mobility Business Unit, we are at the forefront of advancing vehicle technology.

From innovative solutions such as 5G to hidden antennas, we design and manufacture products that enable flawless data transfer within the next generation of autonomous and connected vehicles.

What You Will Do


* Lead new product development projects from concept through manufacturing handover.


* Create 3D CAD and 2D drawings utilizing NX CAD Software.


* Select materials that meet mechanical and environmental requirements while offering cost-effective solutions.


* Conduct research and analysis on existing products to optimize performance and reduce costs.


* Lead root cause analysis, propose corrective actions, and minimize design and tooling iterations.


* Analyze test results and assess the impact of material properties, geometry, and test conditions.


* Perform statistical tolerance analysis on CAD assemblies to ensure manufacturability and functional fit.


* Conduct structural FEA to evaluate stress distribution and strength across materials under various loads; assess plastic parts for deflection and snapping, analyze metal components for conductivity and spring-back, and review gaskets, sealing, and fastening methods.


* Write reports and prepare presentations summarizing analysis results and review all project-related analyses to ensure report accuracy.

Who You Are (Basic Qualifications)


* Bachelor's degree in Mechanical engineering.


* Over 8 years of experience in mechanical product design.


* Proficient in mechanical design using NX or equivalent CAD software.


* Demonstrated understanding of new product development processes and workflows.


* Hands-on experience with processes including injection molding, aluminum die casting, and elastomer materials used in electronic packaging applications.

What Will Put You Ahead


* Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering.


* Automotive industry experience preferred, with familiarity in OEM standards, product development cycles, and quality systems.


* Skilled in performing mechanical and thermal FEA simulations with ANSYS and/or...
