Build Engineers

This is a contract position that requires a full-time onsite presence at the customer's location in Crewe, UK, five days a week. The role focuses on proactively validating product designs and assembly processes ahead of the design release milestone through advanced simulation techniques.

• Strong knowledge of general assembly processes, tooling, and equipment.
• Understanding of virtual manufacturing tools such as Process Simulate, Teamcenter, and CAD systems.
• Experience in product and process validation, including simulation-based analysis of tooling, ergonomics, and assembly feasibility.
• Familiarity with vehicle development processes, particularly around design release and virtual build milestones.
• Proficiency in interpreting configured Bills of Materials (BoMs) and translating process documentation into virtual build sequences.
• Hands-on experience conducting ergonomic studies, dynamic simulations, and virtual build reviews with cross-functional teams.
• Ability to collaborate effectively with Manufacturing Engineers (MEs), Component Manufacturing Engineers (CMEs), Tooling Integration Engineers (TIEs), and plant personnel.
• Experience with Tecnomatix (Process Simulate) and/or Delmia V5.
• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Production, or Automotive Engineering.

• Utilize advanced simulation tools to evaluate, validate, and optimise product, process, and tooling designs.
• Conduct dynamic simulation studies and analyse tool designs to ensure seamless integration and manufacturability.
• Identify opportunities for optimisation and deliver detailed simulation reports to relevant engineers.

• Perform ergonomic assessments to support CMEs and ergonomists.
• Collaborate with ergonomics teams to incorporate ergonomic postures into virtual build sequences.

• Lead virtual build activities across key development milestones.
• Develop and maintain comprehensive virtual build sequences tailored to specific requirements.
• Facilitate virtual build reviews with cross-functional teams.

• Analyze new parts to ensure manufacturability and process compatibility.
• Generate and validate configured Bills of Materials (BoM) for complete vehicle builds.
• Maintain and execute virtual build checklists for each part number in its assembly context.

• Maintain detailed reports and KPI dashboards relevant to virtual analysis activities.
• Work closely with Feasibility and Design for Manufacturing engineers to resolve identified issues.
• Support customer teams by addressing concerns and providing actionable solutions.
