Comrise is looking for a powerhouse Lead Dimensional Engineer to own dimensional management and sensor integration across multiple cutting-edge autonomous vehicle platforms.

This is a high-visibility, mission-critical role where you will bridge the gap between advanced sensor hardware, vehicle architecture, and high-precision manufacturing. If you are a master of dimensional variation who wants to directly shape the deployment of safe, next-generation autonomous fleets, this is the ultimate opportunity for your career!

Why This Opportunity Sizzles
  • Elite Compensation: $105.67 USD Per Hour (Strict W2 Contract)
  • Cutting-Edge Tech: Drive sub-millimeter precision for next-gen LiDAR, Radar, and Camera suites on multi-platform architectures.
  • Ultimate Authority: Concurrently own dimensional strategy across parallel vehicle programs--making high-impact architectural decisions.
  • Prime Bay Area Location: Work fully in-person at a state-of-the-art facility in Foster City, CA.
What You Will Do
  • Multi-Program Architectural Leadership: Serve as the primary dimensional authority for sensor integration across parallel vehicle platforms, managing massive architectural workloads concurrently.
  • Datum and Tolerance Strategy: Define vehicle build requirements, establish robust datum schemes, sensor mounting locator strategies, and tolerance allocations to guarantee rock-solid sensor-to-body and sensor-to-sensor co-calibration stability.
  • Metrology and Fixture Innovation: Define comprehensive measurement strategies from single components to full vehicle assembly; review and formally approve internal and supplier metrology fixture concepts.
  • Cross-Functional Design Feedback: Provide active architectural loop feedback regarding layout changes needed to ensure vehicle body structures and sensor brackets are reliably manufacturable and assemblable.
  • Supplier Capability and PPAP: Partner directly with Supplier Quality (SQ) teams to evaluate supplier capability, establish dimensional acceptance criteria, and resolve engineering escalations to protect program milestones.
What We Are Looking For
  • Industry Experience: 8 to 10 years of dedicated experience in dimensional management, variation simulation, or metrology within the automotive, aerospace, or autonomous robotics sectors.
  • AV Sensor Mastery: Deep technical understanding of the unique dimensional, structural, and alignment requirements for AV sensor suites (LiDAR, Radar, Cameras).
  • Advanced Variation and GD and T: Expertise in performing both 1D and 3D Dimensional Variation Analysis (DVA) stack-ups, alongside advanced-level proficiency in ASME Y14.5 GD and T principles.
  • CAD and 3DX Proficiency: Hands-on experience using CATIA V6 and 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX) to visualize, manipulate, and interrogate 3D models, create reference geometry, and map critical functional datums.
  • Statistical Rigor: Strong background in Variation Simulation Analysis tools, Statistical Process Control (SPC), Gauge R and R studies, and process capability metrics (Cp, Cpk).
  • Education: Bachelor degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Fixture Design Engineering, or a closely related field.
Role Specifics and Logistics
  • Employment Type: Full-time Contract (30+ hours/week)
  • Target Assignment End Date: August 17, 2026
  • Work Environment: 100% Onsite in Foster City, CA
  • Interview Process: 30-minute Manager Zoom screening followed by a 1.5-hour panel interview (includes a required on-site component).
Work Authorization Note: Our client is currently unable to support individuals who require visa sponsorship or other employment authorization accommodations. Candidates must be authorized to work on a W2 basis without sponsorship.
