**DESCRIPTION** **Key Responsibilities:** + Manage the product life cycle of automotive components. + Utilize Creo and Windchill CAD design and detailing skills. + Provide manufacturing engineering support. + Offer application engineering support. + Apply GD&T and perform tolerance stack-up analysis. + Demonstrate basic DFMEA knowledge. + Interact with cross-functional teams. + Investigate Value Package Introduction (VPI) program team or field-based issues, understand causal mechanisms, recommend appropriate action, and own problem resolution from a design perspective. + Apply and support the execution of processes such as Critical Design Decisions, System Design and Validation Consideration Checklist, Design Review, and tools such as iDFMEA, DVA, GD&T, CREO, and ANSYS Workbench. + Obtain input and negotiate with cross-functional and cross-discipline technical experts and senior-level designers to communicate the component and subsystem design intent. + Support design decision-making in the areas of concept selection, concept optimization, and design specifications. + Own problem resolution for moderately complex components, products, systems, subsystems, or services. + Provide independent execution of established work processes and systems while developing technology or product knowledge. + Engage with the improvement of systems and processes. + Coordinate and direct work amongst technicians and/or temporary student employees. **RESPONSIBILITIES** + **Cross-Functional Design Integration** : Translates the value package requirements that include the voices of many stakeholders into virtual designs and communicates the capability of the design through an approved cross-functional design review. + **Mechanical Design Modeling and Analysis** : Creates Computer-Aided Design models in accordance with Cummins' standards to represent architectural or product-level system design concepts and to enable completion of various system-level computer analyses such as Dimensional Variation Analysis and Finite Element Analysis. + **Mechanical Design of Mechanical Systems** : Acquires and applies an in-depth understanding of mechanical systems to create innovative and sound design concepts that meet Cummins and customer expectations. + **Mechanical Design Specification** : Creates complete specifications in the form of solid models, configured engineering bill of materials, and detailed drawings that cross-functionally communicate the information required to manufacture and inspect a product per its design intent. + **Product Function Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis** : Impacts product design decisions through the utilization and/or interpretation of computational tools and methods that predict the capability of a product's function relative to its system, sub-system, and/or component level requirements. + **System Requirements Engineering** : Uses appropriate methods and tools to translate stakeholder needs into verifiable requirements to which designs are developed; establishes acceptance criteria for the system of interest through analysis, allocation, and negotiation; tracks the status of requirements throughout the system lifecycle. + **Collaborates** : Building partnerships and working collaboratively with others to meet shared objectives. + **Communicates Effectively** : Developing and delivering multi-mode communications that convey a clear understanding of the unique needs of different audiences. + **Decision Quality** : Making good and timely decisions that keep the organization moving forward. + **Drives Results** : Consistently achieving results, even under tough circumstances. + **Self-Development** : Actively seeking new ways to grow and be challenged using both formal and informal development channels. + **Values Differences** : Recognizing the value that different perspectives and cultures bring to an organization. + **Product Failure Mode Avoidance** : Mitigates potential product failure modes by identifying interfaces, functions, functional requirements, interactions, control factors, noise factors, and prioritized potential failure modes and potential failure causes. + **Product Configuration and Change Management** : Establishes a baseline of identified product artifacts to be placed under configuration management; releases, tracks, controls, and communicates changes from concept to obsolescence. + **Technical Documentation** : Documents information based on knowledge gained as part of technical function activities; communicates to stakeholders to enable improved technical productivity and effective knowledge transfer. + **Product Development Execution, Monitoring, and Control** : Plans, schedules, coordinates, and executes the activities involved in developing a product to a respectively aligned hierarchy of requirements and technical profiles; monitors and communicates across functional boundaries to meet project resource and quality expectations. **Qualifications:** + Bachelor's degree in an appropriate STEM field, or equivalent experience, is required. + This position may require licensing for compliance with export controls or sanctions regulations. **QUALIFICATIONS** **Skills and Experience:** + Preferred candidates would have relevant experience working in either a temporary student employment environment (intern, co-op, or other extracurricular team activities) or as an early career professional in a relevant technical discipline area. + Knowledge of MS Office and CREO tools is also preferred. **Job** Engineering **Organization** Cummins Inc. **Role Category** Hybrid **Job Type** Exempt - Experienced **ReqID** 2412187 **Relocation Package** Yes
