• Select materials and make drawing changes
• Size Air intake, Exhaust, and other sub-systems used on engines to meet Cummins requirements
• Create bill of materials for release to the Cummins business system
• Calculate and gather information to perform calculations for design of systems
• Communicate with vendors and customers to verify correct design calculations and customer specifications
• Assist manufacturing with technical issues, with direction from staff
• Perform other duties as assigned

Functional/Technical:

• Read and interpret operating and maintenance instructions and procedure manuals
• Interpret a variety instructions furnished in a variety of forms
• Understanding of stationary and mobile engine applications

• Ability to positively react to change in an engineering and manufacturing environment

To be successful in this role you will need the following:

• Integrate cross-functional requirements into design solutions by translating stakeholder needs into validated system designs and clearly communicating design capability through structured design reviews.
• Apply strong mechanical design and analysis skills by developing accurate CAD models and leveraging simulation tools (FEA, DVA) to inform design decisions and optimize performance.
• Design robust mechanical systems by considering full lifecycle requirements (performance, durability, manufacturability, serviceability, and cost) to meet both customer and business needs.
• Develop precise engineering specifications by creating detailed models, drawings, and BOMs that ensure manufacturability, quality, and alignment with industry and Cummins standards.
• Leverage simulation and modeling to drive decisions by using analytical tools to predict product performance and validate designs against system and component-level requirements.
• Demonstrate strong product problem-solving capability by identifying root causes, implementing data-driven corrective actions, and preventing recurrence through systemic improvements.
• Execute with discipline across the product lifecycle by managing requirements, configuration, and change control while ensuring alignment to program timelines, quality targets, and stakeholder expectations.
• Collaborate and communicate effectively by working across functions, making timely decisions, documenting technical insights, and continuously developing skills while valuing diverse perspectives.
