About the Job

Requirements

At least 5 years of experience as a Mechanical Design Engineer in the automotive or aerospace industry, ideally across multiple design teams.
Extensive CAD modeling experience in CATIA/3DEXPERIENCE.
Advanced CAD simulation experience in SIMULIA to teach engineers to validate their current design ideas early in the development phase.
Hands-on CAD modeling experience across diverse part types, including injection-molded parts, castings, stampings, and sheet metal.
Proven experience delivering CAD training to engineers.
Experience in creating and using simulations to validate current CAD designs and identify deficiencies early.

Responsibilities

Diagnose and resolve issues across the CAD/PLM platform (3DEXPERIENCE) and related engineering tools.
Identify recurring failure modes and feed them into runbooks or training content to reduce recurrence of the same issues.
Provide regular basic CAD training to new hires in the Vehicle Engineering organization, plus targeted on-demand training as needed.
Assist with office hours and create how-to content for common CAD/PLM tasks.
Develop CAD methods, methodologies, engineering/CAD templates, and workflows that continuously improve efficiency in Engineering and drive greater standardization in CAD modeling and simulation.
Act as the primary link between the Vehicle Engineering organization, which reports issues or improvement ideas, and the development specialists in the Design Technology organization.
Support and act as an expert for Design Technology internal improvement, deprecation, or deployment projects.
Manage communication with the CAD vendor to resolve issues that cannot be addressed internally.

Desired Qualifications

Experience with other non-modeling-specific apps and concepts in the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, such as Change and Configuration Management, would be ideal for this role.
Experience with other CAD systems, especially SolidWorks, is helpful but not required.

About the Company

Tesla

Makes electric cars, robotaxis and grid batteries

Tesla makes electric cars and batteries that store power for homes and utilities, and it develops self-driving software and humanoid robots. In 2023, its Model Y became the first electric vehicle to rank as the world's best-selling car. Buyers order the Model 3 sedan, Model Y SUV, or Cybertruck pickup directly from Tesla instead of through dealers, and they charge on its Supercharger fast-charging network. It also sells Megapack and Powerwall batteries, runs a robotaxi service, and charges drivers a monthly fee for self-driving software that still needs their supervision. Tesla was founded in 2003, with Elon Musk as its lead early investor and a recognized co-founder, and it is based in Austin, Texas.
