Job description
Senior Mechanical Designer
We are seeking five experienced Senior Mechanical Designers to support automotive weld-tooling projects at the engineering facility in Warren.
This is a tooling-design position, not an automotive product-design role. Candidates must have significant experience using CATIA to design weld tooling, fixtures, and automated assembly equipment.
Responsibilities
Design automotive weld tooling and fixtures using CATIA.
Develop 3D models, layouts, assemblies, details, and manufacturing drawings.
Design tooling for automated automotive body-shop and welding applications.
Incorporate clamps, pins, locating units, grippers, weld-gun access, sensors, and related tooling components.
Review customer specifications and apply applicable tooling standards.
Collaborate with project engineers, manufacturing-support teams, tool builders, and other designers.
Support design reviews, engineering changes, build questions, and tooling corrections.
Ensure designs are functional, manufacturable, and suitable for assembly and installation.
Complete assigned projects in accordance with customer quality and timing requirements.
Required Qualifications
Minimum of five years of automotive weld-tooling design experience.
Professional experience using CATIA for mechanical tooling design.
Experience designing weld fixtures, BIW tooling, body-shop equipment, or automated assembly tooling.
Ability to develop and detail tooling—not simply modify automotive product components.
Understanding of tooling construction, manufacturing, assembly, and design-for-build principles.
Ability to interpret layouts, customer standards, specifications, and engineering drawings.
Strong problem-solving and communication skills.
Preferred Qualifications
Previous Honda program or Honda tooling-standard experience.
Experience with body-side, underbody, framing, geo, or respot tooling.
Experience supporting designs through build, tryout, debug, or installation.
Previous experience with an automotive automation or tooling integrator.
Please note: Candidates whose experience is primarily automotive product design, vehicle components, interiors, trim, Class-A surfaces, or product packaging will not be considered without substantial weld-tooling design experience.
