Job Description
Mechanical Design Eng for Seats

What to expect:

  • Create fully constructed 2D and 3D CAD models for all seat variants (1st class, 2nd class, foldable/tip‑up, lounge).

  • Maintain native CREO models, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and compliance with project interfaces (carbody, C‑rail, air duct installation space).

  • Ensure CAD models are free of critical errors, including modeling inconsistencies or open solids.

  • Design key components including: seat structure & cantilever systems, armrests/handrails, back panels & trims, upholstery, foam, and coverings (trim development).

  • Develop kinematics for adjustable and folding mechanisms, ensuring functional chains are validated.

  • Apply correct material specifications (e.g., CR780Y980T-CP, CR420LA, CR380LA).

  • Design joining solutions using MAG welding, screwing, and adhesive bonding according to relevant standards.

  • Incorporate feedback from prototype builders, customers and series suppliers.

  • Participate in technical review rounds led by the OEM.

  • Integrate manufacturability insights (mold‑flow results, tooling constraints, welding feasibility.

What you bring along:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Industrial Design, or related field.

  • Proven experience in CAD design, ideally using PTC Creo for metal structures and trim parts.

  • Knowledge of seat design, railway or automotive interiors, or other safety‑critical mechanical systems.

  • Strong understanding of:

  • Sheet metal design and high‑strength steel materials (e.g., CR-series steels).

  • Joining technologies (MAG welding, bolting, industrial adhesives) _ | PowerPoint]

  • Kinematic systems, linkages, and movement mechanisms.

  • Trim & foam development for upholstery.

  • Ability to interpret and apply engineering standards (DIN EN 15085‑5, DIN EN 17460).
