BorgWarner

A global product leader in clean and efficient technology solutions for combustion, hybrid, and electric vehicles.

Lead Mechanical Design Engineer

Join BorgWarner Portland (Cascadia Motion brand) as a Lead Mechanical Design Engineer, driving clean-sheet mechanical design programs from concept through production. As a proven professional, you will own the full mechanical design - from top-level system architecture to detailed component and complex tooled part design. You will be directly responsible for creating and managing large, detailed CAD models, with a focus on building robust geometry efficiently and quickly to support rapid iteration and design maturity. The BorgWarner Portland team is a small, highly agile group specializing in the design and manufacture of hardware for electric vehicle propulsion & industrial power systems - including electric motors, power electronics (inverters), and transmissions. In contrast to the complex structures often found in large engineering organizations, we operate with lean, right-sized processes tailored to our customers’ needs - empowering engineers to make decisions quickly and keep projects moving efficiently. With design cycles typically around a year, our fast-moving environment fosters innovation, adaptability, and strong team engagement. BorgWarner Portland has an extensive and international customer base, ranging from original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to emerging technologies and startups.

Own the mechanical design and release of new products from kick-off to production launch.

Effectively organize and plan to meet project milestones, while demonstrating exceptional effort when swift action is required. When challenges arise, communicate clear recovery strategies to ensure a successful path forward.

Blank-sheet mechanical design of electric vehicle propulsion systems (electric motors, power electronics (inverters) and transmissions)

Create expert level 3D CAD models using SolidWorks

Create 2D drafting sheets in SolidWorks applying GD&T to ensure design intent

Conduct peer-level and executive-level design reviews

Create and control bills of materials during the design phase to ensure the successful launch of your project.
