Full Job Description

Position Overview

Established automotive tooling manufacturer in Troy, MI is seeking a highly experienced, hands-on Senior BIW Tooling Designer capable of independently executing complete fixture programs from kickoff through customer release.

This is not a layout-only position. The ideal candidate has full program ownership experience including 3D assembly development, complete detail drawing packages, GD&T application, BOM creation, and launch support.

We are looking for a designer who leads through execution and technical capability — not title alone.

Key Responsibilities

Independently design and detail BIW locating and holding fixtures for automated welding, laser cutting, and material handling systems
Execute full 3D assemblies and production-ready detail drawings
Develop and manage complete BOMs (commercial and manufactured components)
Apply proper GD&T and automotive locating/nesting strategy
Ensure designs meet customer standards, program timing, and manufacturability requirements
Support build floor, debug, and launch activities
Review and check internal design work as required
Take ownership of design quality and program deliverables

Required Experience

7+ years of BIW Automotive Tool Fixture Design experience
Demonstrated history of independently releasing complete fixture programs
Strong SolidWorks proficiency (2020+ preferred)
Strong working knowledge of GD&T and automotive locating strategy
Experience participating in customer design reviews

Senior-Level Expectations

To be considered for this role, candidates must:

Have personally executed multiple BIW fixture programs from kickoff to release
Be comfortable producing complete detail packages — not just layouts
Understand manufacturability and real-world build constraints
Be capable of working independently with minimal oversight

Layout-only or entry-level candidates will not be considered.

Compensation

Competitive compensation commensurate with proven senior-level program ownership experience.
