Job Description

    • Description:

      Design Release Engineer Turbocharger System

      The Design Release Engineer for the Turbocharger System is responsible for the design development and technical leadership in the creation validation and release of turbochargers turbo coolant and oil feed and return lines heatshields etc. This includes all components associated with getting air into and out of the turbocharger cooling lubrication sealing structural support etc. for the turbocharger system. The role involves driving the design through all phases of the product lifecycle including design concept engineering validation and production release through PPAP (Production Part Approval Process).

      Responsibilities include but not limited to:

      Design & Development:

      • Lead the design of the Turbocharger System hardware ducting and engine interfaces.
      • Develop and refine the Turbocharger System for function cost and quality durability NVH etc.
      • Support CAD modeling FEA (Finite Element Analysis) and other design validation methods to ensure structural integrity and compliance with standards.
      • Collaborate with other engineering teams (airflow thermal packaging) to integrate the turbocharger system.

      Release & Program Management:

      • Manage design release activities from early concept through production including the timely completion of B-Sample C-Sample X0 X1 X2 and X3 milestones.
      • Own the Bill of Materials (BOM) and Engineering Change Notices (ECNs) for turbocharger components.
      • Ensure all parts meet quality cost and timing requirements.
      • Drive the Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) for turbocharger components ensuring compliance with all regulatory and customer specifications.
      • Coordinate with cross-functional teams including manufacturing suppliers and quality to ensure the successful release and implementation of designs.

      Technical Guidance & Problem Solving:

      • Provide technical leadership and support during the development and production stages to resolve design issues material selection challenges and process-related problems.
      • Lead DFMEA (Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) and other risk assessment activities to ensure design robustness and mitigate potential issues.
      • Participate in the development of testing strategies for turbocharger components including vibration crash and thermal testing.

      Cross-Functional Collaboration:

      • Work closely with suppliers to ensure design feasibility cost competitiveness and manufacturability of turbocharger components.
      • Collaborate with validation teams to define and implement validation testing ensuring turbocharger components meet functional and performance metrics.
      • Partner with vehicle integration teams to ensure proper fitment safety and integration of turbocharger components into the overall vehicle platform.

      Documentation & Reporting:

      • Develop and maintain engineering documentation including design specifications drawings test plans and validation reports.
      • Ensure that all technical documentation is up-to-date and aligns with program timelines and PPAP requirements.
      • Report on project status timelines and risk assessments to senior management and stakeholders.
    • Requirements:

      Requirements:

      • A minimum of a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical or Aeronautical Engineering from an ABET accredited school or equivalent.
      • A minimum of 3-5 years of relevant experience working with design and manufacturing of turbocharger components including metal stamping and casting.
      • Understanding of engine components related manufacturing processes i.e. Aluminum/steel stamping aluminum casting machining etc
      • Understanding of product development documentation such as DFMEA and DVP&R
      • Understanding of Mechanics of Materials Sealing systems CAE Analysis and GD&T
      • Experience in selecting materials and manufacturing methods for mechanical components.
      • Ability to author system/component level requirements
      • Strong interpersonal communication team/leadership skills/experience
      • Strong oral and written communication skills
      • Strong project management skills/experience
      • Demonstrated understanding of structural analysis and failure modes of complex mechanical systems

      Preferred Requirements:

      • Advanced degree in Mechanical or Aeronautical Engineering
      • Working experience in creation and execution of validation plans
      • Critical character traits to ensure success: Action Oriented Dealing with Ambiguity Customer Focus Problem Solving.
      • Working experience with 3D cad programs preferably Siemens NX

      Additional Must Haves:

      • Mechanical / Aeronautical Engineering Degree
      • Good Communications skills
      • Knowledge of internal combustion engines
      • Experience with fluid dynamics and heat transfer fundamentals preferred not a must have
      • Experience with engineering change management preferred not a must have
