The Role

As a Computational Design and Parametric Modeling expert , you will drive the development and adoption of advanced digital workflows across the GM design community. You will leverage tools such as NX Algorithmic Modeling, Rhino, Grasshopper, Alias, and Dynamo to create complex sculpted surfaces, branded textures, and high-quality patterns that bring vehicle interior and exterior themes to life. Partnering closely with design and engineering stakeholders, you will contribute to solving challenging aesthetic and technical problems while integrating computational design strategies into the overall vehicle design and development process. You will also provide technical expertise, training, and guidance to cross-functional studio teams, mentoring sculptors and enabling collaboration across multiple studios.

What You’ll Do

Serve as the subject matter expert in computational design and parametric modeling , using advanced algorithms to build complex sculpted surfaces and high-quality aesthetic models across the GVDP.
Develop and implement cross-platform hybrid workflows, tools, and processes that integrate computational design strategies into the overall vehicle design process, including the creation of branded textures, patterns, and advanced surfacing solutions.
Mentor and coach sculptors and studio personnel on the theory, practice, and implementation of computational design and digital sculpting tools to create vehicle exterior and interior themes.
Champion a strong safety mindset while testing and developing common GM Global Design processes and best practices, and ensuring adherence to corporate data management and communication systems (Teamcenter, SharePoint, PDM, timekeeping, email, etc.).
Balance workloads across multiple studios and programs, enabling collaboration and alignment to accomplish organizational goals and meet program timing requirements.
Actively participate in studio and patio reviews , contributing expert aesthetic judgment and 3D solutions to address design and engineering challenges with cross-functional teams.

Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications)
