Sr Engineering Designer - Engine Team at General Motors in Warren, MI

Job description

Job Description This role is categorized as hybrid. The selected candidate will be expected to work on-site at the Warren Tech Center at least three days per week, or as otherwise determined by the hiring leader. This role is not eligible for relocation assistance. At General Motors, our product teams are redefining mobility. Through a human-centered design process, we create vehicles and experiences that are designed not just to be seen, but to be felt. We’re turning today’s impossible into tomorrow’s standard —from breakthrough hardware and battery systems to intuitive design, intelligent software, and next-generation safety and entertainment features. Every day, our products move millions of people as we aim to make driving safer, smarter, and more connected, shaping the future of transportation on a global scale." About the Role : General Motors is seeking an Engineering Designer to develop integrated, high-quality, manufacturable designs for the Engine space. In this role, you will help translate vehicle, propulsion, structural, manufacturing, and program requirements into robust virtual designs that support performance, safety, durability, serviceability, and production readiness. The role is focused on complete Engine systems. You will own or support Siemens NX math models, design criteria, typical sections, clearance studies, subsystem integration, NX Analysis, material and mass data, design reviews, and on-time math releases. You will work closely with the Design Manager, Design Lead Team, Design Release Engineer, fellow designers, engineering partners, manufacturing, joining, quality, suppliers, plant, program, and service teams to identify risks early, resolve integration issues, and deliver release-quality data through the Global Vehicle Development Process. What you will do: Develop and maintain robust, accurate, and production-oriented Siemens NX parametric models for assigned components and subsystems. Create virtual vehicle integration solutions aligned with program requirements, design principles, packaging constraints, design criteria, and subsystem interfaces. Develop and refine NX criteria and typical sections using approved modeling methods and program standards. Establish and control hard points, packaging zones, clearances, service access, and critical interfaces. Apply structural design fundamentals, including stiffness, strength, fatigue, buckling, section efficiency, joints, materials, reinforcements, and local load introduction. Evaluate primary and secondary load paths for durability, crash, support, and propulsion-related conditions. Identify load introduction points, reactions, joints, discontinuities, weak links, and opportunities for efficient structural improvement. Perform or support clearance, usage, configuration, and virtual studies across components, subsystems, and the complete vehicle. Complete NX Analysis for assigned components or subsystems and use results appropriately to guide design decisions with support from Design Lead Team or senior designers as needed. Apply GD&T, tolerance awareness, variation-management, and stack-up principles to support fit, function, joining, load transfer, and assembly. Design for manufacturability and assembly from the beginning of the design process, considering process capability, tooling, fixturing, access, sequence, joining, weldability, inspection, repairability, and production variation. Maintain accurate and traceable material, mass, specification, and related data within the math file. Translate program and component requirements into clear design criteria, integration checks, verification expectations, and release deliverables. Plan and execute work against design sync points, review milestones, release timing, and other Global Vehicle Development Process deliverables. Deliver accurate, complete, and on-time math releases with clean CAD, correct interfaces, complete details, and minimal rework. Use structured problem solving to resolve non-rout
