Introduction

The Factory Design & Simulation team is seeking a contract Simulation Engineer (DES) to support early manufacturing engineering and throughput architecture for the R2 ramp. This role focuses on building and analyzing discrete event simulation models to guide factory and line design decisions before RFQ and detailed design. You will work closely with Body, GA, Paint, Battery, Drive Unit, and Material Flow teams to validate capacity, size buffers, and identify bottlenecks impacting the R2 launch and ramp.

Required Skills & Qualifications (Must-have qualifications that candidates must meet to be considered)

• 3 years experience in automotive manufacturing engineering (e.g., body, paint, GA, battery, drive unit, or material flow) with direct ownership of discrete event simulation projects.


• Expert-level proficiency with Autodesk FlexSim.


• Demonstrated experience modeling multi-line assembly systems with buf...
