Geometric Metrology Engineer

About the Role OPmobility is seeking a Geometric Metrology Engineer to drive measurement strategies, fixture development, and geometry convergence for complex automotive projects. The role collaborates with plants, the geometry Metier central team in France, and Engineering Centers to ensure tolerance commitments are met while promoting continuous methodological improvements.

What You'll Do

• Define and write the specification books for Checking Fixtures in accordance with customer requirements and OPmobility Standard.
• Partner with Purchasing to source Checking Fixtures and manage their lifecycle from Design through Plant Acceptance.
• Manage technical follow-up of Design/Development/Manufacturing/Validation and Tuning of checking fixtures until Plant Acceptance; validate commissioning per standard & spec (Safety, functionality, ergonomy, Gauge Repeatability, lack of interference).
• Drive Gauge Repeatability and Reproducibility (Gauge RR) at plants and deliver operational training; perform analysis and advise actions on fixtures, products, or work instructions.
• Conduct measurement and data analysis using Excel or Minitab; perform dimensional measurements and deliver dimensional reports; 3D scanning experience is a plus (Polyworks).
• Support Product Convergence: validate tolerance commitments in RFQ with PLE, validate measurement scenarios, and validate the content of Geometry Folders; lead Geometry Folder definitions for complex/innovative projects; ensure correct usage of tools and methodology; estimate budget for global geometry scenarios and obtain validation from the Manager.
• Collaborate with Engineering Project Manager and Design Leader during dimensional convergence/tuning following OPTIMAP process; synthesize results (1D/2D/3D) and capabilities.
• Plan, organize, and perform all measurements according to Metrology Requests; deliver final statements emphasizing best practices; consolidate final dimensional production capabilities to improve tolerance calculation tools and share learnings with geometry Metier central.
• Validate datum schemes, stack-ups, and tolerances calculated by the DL and/or EPM; act as key user for Network or local trainer for PO university; support on global complex projects for quotations, fixtures, or product definitions.
• Define methodologies for development and operational standards; drive métier efficiency within Engineering Centers and Network management; influence future métier projects (new measurement tools and technologies).
• Manage supplier panel and its improvement roadmap; support Innovation projects; assist Engineering Centers on high-complexity requests for quotations, fixtures, or product definitions; contribute to global problem solving at PO IES.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree with experience or Master’s degree in engineering.
• Analytical and technical mindset; rigor, leadership, and accurate technical communication; fluent in English.
• 3-4 years of significant experience in geometry field, automotive field (measurements and checking fixtures development); indirect customer contact; ability to interface between product and process departments is a plus.
• Mechanical engineering, statistics & tolerancing, Gauge RR, Dimensional inspection; basic project management knowledge.

Nice to Have

• 3D scanning experience (preferred with Polyworks).
