Air Intake System Product Design and Release Engineer

Stellantis • Auburn Hills, MI

3d

About The Position

The engineer will design, develop, and validate air intake systems for internal combustion engine and hybrid electrified vehicles. Systems and components may include low-pressure clean- and dirty-side ducts, air cleaners, make-up air hoses, resonators, air filters, brackets, and potentially high-pressure charge ducts.

The engineer will manage assigned air intake systems through potentially any stage of development. Work includes early packaging and component design and execution to meet air-intake-system, engine, and vehicle functional objectives; coordinating CAD design, CAE, prototyping, and physical testing; and documenting these activities. Depending on program assignments, the engineer may support sourcing and coordinate and track supplier progress to ensure part maturity and milestones are achieved. Designs and processes should follow best practices and methodologies, including DFMEA and DVP&R, to minimize risk.

The role may require occasional onsite support at applicable engine and/or vehicle assembly plants. Additional work includes supporting quality concerns, process-change validation, and technical cost-reduction (value optimization) activities after vehicle launch.
