MAIN ACTIVITIES

• Ensure the successful development of plastic parts for the project.
• Analyze work requests (parts, mechanical environment, vehicle technical constraints, etc.) and identify potential challenges (problems, inconsistencies, major difficulties).
• Have an excellent command of plastic injection molding and its constraints.
• Design 3D models using Catia V5 or Siemens NX, with strong expertise in Part Design and Generative Shape Design, considering:
• Styling surfaces (design and functional parts).
• The variation of injected parts within their mechanical environment (defining fixed points and reference systems).
• Thickness optimization and technical integration of parts into their mechanical environment.
• Surface stitching, surface updates, and technical edge refinements to prevent shrinkage.
• Demoldability rules, including integrating slide movements into the mold, especially for complex parts (a plus).
• Positioning, securing, and assembling techniques for plastic parts.
• Mastery of joining and fitting techniques (butt joint, overlap, step joints, etc.).
• Proximity analysis and potential clash detection between parts.
• Knowledge and mastery of PLM tools would be an asset.
• Oversee part and/or system development up to 2D drawing production (Catia V5 Drawing), ensuring functional dimensioning for internal and supplier requirements.
• Collaborate closely with suppliers of injected plastic parts for mold development.
