EV Design Engineer

Job Overview: EV Design Engineer

As an EV Design Engineer, you will play a critical role in the development and design of electric vehicles, ensuring optimal performance, safety, efficiency, and user experience. This role involves working closely with cross-functional teams including electrical, mechanical, software, and manufacturing engineers to bring next-generation electric mobility solutions to life.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design and develop vehicle components (chassis, body, suspension, interiors) for electric vehicles using CAD tools (e.g., CATIA, SolidWorks, Siemens NX).
• Collaborate with powertrain, battery, and electronics teams to integrate mechanical and electrical systems effectively.
• Perform structural analysis, material selection, and design optimization for weight reduction and safety.
• Coordinate with suppliers and manufacturing teams to ensure design feasibility and cost-effectiveness.
• Support prototype development, functional testing, and validation of components and systems.
• Ensure compliance with safety standards, homologation requirements, and environmental regulations.
• Participate in design reviews, DFMEA, and root cause analysis for design-related issues.

Required Skills & Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, or a related field.
• 2+ years of experience in vehicle or component design (EV experience preferred).
• Proficiency in 3D CAD software and knowledge of GD&T, CAE tools.
• Understanding of EV architecture, packaging, and mechanical-electrical integration.
• Familiarity with vehicle safety regulations and design validation processes.
• Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and a passion for sustainable mobility.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with light-weight materials (aluminum, composites).
• Exposure to thermal management design or NVH optimization.
• Knowledge of ISO standards, AIS regulations, or homologation procedures in India.
