Mass Engineer II

About Lucid Motors

At Lucid we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucids proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture our award-winning vehicles bring our Compromise Nothing approach to the global automotive market. That means refusing to choose between performance and sustainability design and engineering ambition and Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments combining exceptional range performance design and expansive space in a single experience.

We achieve this through deep vertical integration with design engineering and production happening in-house across our global offices and manufacturing facilities. Our teams come from industries around the world united by a shared commitment to excellence. By refusing to settle you can help redefine whats possible and shape the future of mobility.

About the Team

Vehicle Efficiency Engineering sets and protects the mass energy range and thermal-comfort performance of Lucid vehicle programs. The team combines target setting detailed engineering analysis models measurements and cross-functional issue leadership to prevent performance creep. It partners with every major vehicle system and program team from architecture through launch. Its work helps Lucid deliver class-leading efficiency without compromising performance comfort or capability.

About the Role

As a Job Level 7 Mass Engineer you will independently own defined mass tracking correlation and optimization workstreams for current and future vehicle programs. Reporting to a Manager of Vehicle Efficiency Engineering you will connect engineering-system data and physical measurements to clear forecasts risks and your first 12 months success means accurate and traceable mass data dependable prototype and manufacturing correlation and quantified reduction opportunities adopted by engineering owners. Lucid offers a vehicle-wide role where rigorous analysis directly protects range performance compliance and customer value.

What You Own

• Mass Data: Maintain vehicle system and option-level mass properties by reconciling CAD PLM BOM MES CAE configuration and measurement data. Integrate data from engineering systems and benchmarking databases to generate actionable insights and technical recommendations.

• Targets and Forecasts: Own defined target and forecasting workstreams identify variance early and maintain clear assumptions and confidence levels. Lead mass strategy activities including target setting forecasting benchmarking and optimization across vehicle programs while balancing mass cost performance manufacturing constraints and customer requirements.

• Physical Correlation: Support prototype and manufacturing weigh events investigate calculated-to-measured discrepancies and drive traceable corrective actions. Lead component- and vehicle-level correlation activities to validate actual vehicle weights improve mass accuracy and ensure alignment between analytical and measured results.

• Test Support: Define and document vehicle weight conditions payload ballast and mass assumptions for assigned validation certification durability efficiency or performance tests. Partner with Vehicle Integration Validation and Test teams to support regulatory and product development activities.

• Optimization: Analyze designs and benchmarks and develop practical mass-reduction opportunities that balance cost performance manufacturability quality and timing. Drive integrated product solutions that optimize vehicle efficiency while meeting program objectives and customer expectations.

• Decision Tools: Build clear dashboards analyses automated workflows and AI-enabled solutions that improve engineering efficiency mass visibility traceability and decision-making. Communicate risks tradeoffs and recommendations to engineering program and leadership teams.

• Technical Leadership: Influence cross-functional teams and stakeholders through data-driven communication technical expertise and a continuous improvement mindset while delivering results independently in a fast-paced development environment.
