Digital Modeller (CAS)

Purpose of the Role:

a. This position is essential for undertaking Digital Modelling (CAS), including preparation and planning activities, coordinating inputs, monitoring progress, and ensuring the quality of the final output.

b. Digital Modelling is a core output of the Design Studio, transforming creative design aspirations and decisions into distinct geometric surfaces that give form and embodiment to the intended design. Therefore, this position is critical to the effective functioning and overall output of the Design Studio.

Skills & Competencies:

• Proficiency in Autodesk Alias is essential. Working knowledge of Sub-D modelling and Blender will be considered an added advantage.
• Familiarity with visualization software such as Autodesk VRED and Blender will be an added advantage.
• 3 to 9 years of experience in automotive digital modelling, with demonstrated expertise in the complete development cycle from concept modelling through to Class-A surface development.
• Good level of understanding of automotive exteriors (panels, plastic & child parts) and interiors (IP, door trims & child parts) design.
• Sensitive towards creative design intent and experience in sketch to 3D, Scan to Surface and Class A
• Understanding of engineering constraints and ability to decipher technical packages.
• Ability to co-ordinate between team, customer and cross functional teams.
• Conversion of sketches/2D and 3D mesh/ scan input data into surface models using Autodesk Alias software.
• CLASS A deliveries maintaining high quality output within crunched timelines without losing focus on styling intent.
• Ability to incorporate fast changes respecting engineering packages and execute tasks to achieve project milestones.
• Ability to collate data, manage time and set work and communication models with cross functional teams at different locations.
• Working knowledge for blender & should be good understanding of Sub-D modelling.
• Understanding data of design model making.
• Graduate in Automotive Design, Industrial Design, or a relevant technical degree/diploma, with demonstrated experience in an automotive OEM Design Studio, including CAS modelling and Class-A surface development activities.
