We made history and now we work to transform the future – for our customers, our communities and our families. You'll see your work on the road every day, helping people move freely and pursue their dreams. At Ford, you can build more than vehicles. Come build what matters.
Ford’s Electric Vehicles, Digital and Design (EVDD) team is charged with delivering the company’s vision of a fully electric transportation future. EVDD is customer-obsessed, entrepreneurial, and data-driven and is dedicated to delivering industry-leading customer experience for electric vehicle buyers and owners. You’ll join an agile team of doers pioneering our EV future by working collaboratively, staying focused on only what matters, and delivering excellence day in and day out. Join us to make positive change by helping build a better world where every person is free to move and pursue their dreams.
In this position...
Dimensional engineering is more than just the assembly of parts; it is all about paying attention to
detail, proactive assessment of design, and data-driven decision-making. Bring your experience to create
an exceptional product that delights customers at every touchpoint. As a member of the Ford Advance
EV team, you will collaborate closely with various cross-functional teams including but not limited to the
Design Studio, product engineering, manufacturing quality & operations teams to set and achieve
meticulous quality standards for our vehicles. From the conceptual stage to production, your expertise
will be integral in delivering a flawless experience to our customers.
Responsibilities
What you'll do...
• Own 3D statistical variation analysis in 3DCS end to end — model build, results correlation,
issue resolution, and the recommendations that follow.
• Build and maintain large, multi-level vehicle assemblies in 3DCS, keeping models honest as the
design matures through the development cycle.
• Run 1D and 3D dimensional feasibility studies to prove design intent can actually be achieved in
production.
• Own the dimensional objectives for your commodity — driving issue resolution and
dimensional quality throughout the entire development cycle.
• Turn results into decisions — clear, data-driven recommendations and countermeasure
proposals that design and manufacturing teams can act on.
• Apply GD&T (ASME Y14.5-2009) to define, review, and validate product drawings and
dimensional requirements.
• Define and optimize datum and locating strategies that improve build quality and take
variation out of the vehicle.
• Architect body build sequences with dimensional accuracy, process variation, and
manufacturing feasibility front of mind.
• Solve problems in the room, not over email — partnering directly with Design Studio, product
engineering, manufacturing, and quality assurance.
• Support every build phase, including quality analysis and dimensional check processes, and
drive lessons learned into what comes next.
• Grow the capability — help build dimensional engineering strength in the team, mentoring and
coaching as we scale.
