About the Company:
Our client is a well-funded electric mobility startup backed by top-tier investors with over $300M in funding and a valuation of over $1B pre-product. The company is pioneering a new category of lightweight EVs, addressing the fast-growing micromobility market, which is expanding at triple-digit growth rates.
The team includes 120+ experienced engineers and product leaders from leading EV companies, creating a unique environment where individuals can own entire vehicle platforms from concept through launch.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead the end-to-end CAD assembly of vehicle platforms, with an emphasis on occupant packaging and subsystem integration.
- Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to resolve packaging conflicts and optimize trade-offs between performance and manufacturability.
- Drive structured system integration workflows for rapid product development cycles.
- Support transitions from prototype to production, working closely with manufacturing and supply chain teams.
- Establish scalable engineering processes, including management of top-level assemblies and BOMs.
What Were Looking For:
- 7+ years of vehicle platform design and integration experience (automotive, ATV, UTV, or related).
- Expert-level proficiency in 3D CAD (CATIA preferred) with experience managing complex assemblies.
- Strong knowledge of PLM systems (BOM management, part structuring, engineering change control).
- Solid foundation in mechanical engineering with an understanding of structural design and vehicle packaging trade-offs.
- Demonstrated cross-functional leadership and ability to communicate effectively across disciplines.
- Proven track record of taking vehicle platforms from concept to production launch.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Masters degree in Mechanical Engineering.
- Experience working in fast-paced EV companies.
- Hands-on experience with prototype-to-production scaling.
- Interview Process
- Initial recruiter conversation
- Technical interview (CAD & integration focus)
- Cross-functional discussions with engineering leadership
- Final onsite interview
Not Required:
- Visa Candidates
- C2C Candidates
- Job Hoppers (frequent short stints in roles).
- Graduates from Coding Bootcamps (e.g., Full Stack Academy, Hack Reactor).
- Consulting Backgrounds (Experience at IT software development firms instead of actual product companies).
