Product Development Engineer (Exterior, Color & Trim Designer)
Current1) Generate innovative design concepts for the All-New QX60, focusing on the front fascia and rear end. Develop a bold, futuristic front grille design with integrated LED lighting, and a sleek, aerodynamic rear end with a distinctive taillight signature.2) Create detailed 3D models to visualize design intent and communicate ideas effectively. Utilize Alias to create Class A surfaces with precise curvature and reflections, and V-Ray to render highly realistic images and animations.3) Work closely with a diverse team of designers, engineers, and other stakeholders to refine designs and resolve challenges. Lead design reviews, facilitate discussions between designers and engineers, and resolve design conflicts by finding creative compromises.4) Present design concepts to cross-functional teams, effectively communicating design intent and rationale. Develop engaging presentations using PowerPoint and Keynote, incorporating high-quality 3D renderings and animations to illustrate design concepts.5) Have expertise in advanced design software (Alias, Rhino, V-Ray) to create high-quality 3D models and renderings. Successfully model complex surfaces for the QX60's hood and fenders, and create photorealistic renderings that accurately depict the final design intent.6) Have up-to-date knowledge of automotive trends, emerging technologies, and industry standards. Research the latest trends in autonomous vehicle design and incorporate elements such as sensor integration and aerodynamic optimization into the QX60's design
