Mechanical Engineer

MAIN ACTIVITIES

• Ensure

  the successful development of plastic parts for the project.

• Analyze

  work requests (parts, mechanical environment, vehicle technical

  constraints, etc.) and identify potential challenges (problems,

  inconsistencies, major difficulties).

• Have

  an excellent command of plastic injection molding and its constraints.

• Design

  3D models using Catia V5 or Siemens NX, with

  strong expertise in Part Design and Generative

  Shape Design, considering:

• Styling

  surfaces (design and functional parts).

• The

  variation of injected parts within their mechanical environment (defining

  fixed points and reference systems).

• Thickness

  optimization and technical integration of parts into their mechanical

  environment.

• Surface

  stitching, surface updates, and technical edge refinements to prevent

  shrinkage.

• Demoldability

  rules, including integrating slide movements into the mold, especially

  for complex parts (a plus).

• Positioning,

  securing, and assembling techniques for plastic parts.

• Mastery

  of joining and fitting techniques (butt joint, overlap, step joints,

  etc.).

• Proximity

  analysis and potential clash detection between parts.

• Knowledge

  and mastery of PLM tools would be an asset.

• Oversee

  part and/or system development up to 2D drawing production (Catia

  V5 Drawing), ensuring functional dimensioning for internal and

  supplier requirements.

• Collaborate

  closely with suppliers of injected plastic parts for mold development.
