Mechanical Design Engineer

• Mechanical component engineers are responsible for the development and design of mechanical component products (PT, CS, MC, AD/ADAS, etc.) that meet component product requirements, defined by mechanical system requirements extracted from higher-level system requirements that lead to customers' finished vehicle performance requirements.
• Realize low-cost, efficient, high-quality mechanical product design that meets the required or required feel performance, strength, durability, efficiency, friction, usage environment, NV performance, etc.
• After the production method is specifically decided, it is reflected in the drawings and specifications, and rational standardization design and standardization that can achieve standardization of production equipment, yield improvement, etc. are carried out.
• Using design tools (DFMEA, DRBFM, etc.), we conduct design verification to ensure that component requirements are satisfied, develop and define verification methods by testing, and verify design validity on both sides.
• The engineer will coordinate specifications for rational development, coordinate schedules and negotiations with customers, manage related suppliers, and coordinate and negotiate with related departments within the company in the area of responsibility. In addition, there are cases where coordination and negotiation involve communication in a foreign language (mainly English).

• Need Senior Engineer with Mechanical Engineering background with ECU development experience. Team is working on GM HPC (High Performance Compute) module as R&D and we will need capability in the team to create 3D CAD concepts, perform engineering analysis, validation and meet project timelines.

Under the direction of the Director, this role is responsible for the design, implementation, and optimization of advanced mechanical structures, with a strong focus on software-defined mobility solutions for the automotive industry.

• Design and develop robust mechanical structures for ECU systems, ensuring accurate thermal management, and protection against environmental factors (e.g., vibration, shock, thermal cycling or sealing).
• Generate new concepts and validate them through experiments and engineering analysis.
• Collaborate closely with hardware engineering teams to optimize ECU housing designs, ensuring appropriate integration with electronic components, PCBs, connectors and wiring harnesses.
• Perform detailed 3D modeling and drafting using Solidworks CAD software.
• Conduct comprehensive tolerance stack-up analyses and apply GD&T principles to ensure manufacturing feasibility, functionality, and assembly accuracy.
• Develop and oversee mechanical testing protocols, including shock, vibration, and thermal cycling, to confirm system robustness and reliability.
• Evaluate and select appropriate materials and manufacturing processes (e.g., injection molding, die-casting, sheet metal stamping) to optimize quality, performance, manufacturability, and cost-efficiency.
• Collaborate with suppliers and internal production teams to ensure designs are production-ready and support smooth transition into high-volume manufacturing.
• Participate with Astemo US & Japan Design Engineering organizations in the original design / existing design improvements and performance validation of ECUs.
• Prepare comprehensive technical documentation, including Bill of Materials (BOM), detailed component and assembly drawings, and mechanical design specifications.
• Participate actively in cross-functional meetings, effectively communicating design progress, risks, and improvement recommendations.
• Follow the company’s quality policies and…
