We are looking for a talented RePower Program - Project Engineering to join our team specializing in Engineering for our Cummins center located in Troy, MI.
This product focused position applies knowledge of engineering principles and design practices to create optimized design concepts and mechanical design specifications considering application, cost, weight, performance, reliability, durability, manufacturing, assembly, and serviceability. This role effectively communicates the capability of a design concept to meet cross-functional requirements including assessment of alternative and competitive design concepts, and works effectively across cross-functional disciplines to develop corporate and customer requirements including those required to resolve product issues.
In this role, you will make an impact in the following ways:

• Product Development Execution: Drive end-to-end product development by planning, coordinating, and executing activities that meet requirements, quality expectations, and project timelines.
• Failure Mode Avoidance: Strengthen product reliability by identifying potential failure modes early and implementing mitigation strategies that prevent issues before they reach customers.
• Modeling & Simulation: Influence design decisions through computational modeling, simulation, and analysis that predict system and component performance.
• Interface Integration: Ensure seamless system performance by defining, analyzing, and controlling interfaces across system boundaries and executing structured integration plans.
• Product Problem Solving: Resolve complex product issues using data-driven root-cause analysis and implement long-term corrective actions that protect the customer experience.
• Verification & Validation: Develop and execute validation plans, interpret analytical and physical test results, and guide requirement negotiations to ensure product capability.
• Requirements Engineering: Translate stakeholder needs into clear, verifiable system requirements and manage their evolution throughout the product lifecycle.
• Technical Documentation: Capture and communicate technical knowledge to enable efficient collaboration, knowledge transfer, and improved engineering productivity.

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

• Mechanical & Design Expertise: Apply strong mechanical aptitude across machine-element design (gears, shafts, bearings, seals, fasteners), GD&T interpretation, and manufacturing processes such as casting, forging, and machining.
• Analytical Problem Solving: Diagnose and resolve issues using structured root-cause methods, risk assessments (including FMEA), and simple engineering calculations to support drive-axle and OEM-focused design work.
• Technical Communication & Collaboration: Communicate clearly, document thoroughly, listen actively, and work effectively within cross-functional teams while following established processes and asking questions to deepen understanding.
• Hands-On & Digital Proficiency: Demonstrate strong hands-on skills, confidently read engineering drawings, and use Microsoft applications and engineering tools to support daily technical tasks and continuous learning.

Education, Licenses, Certifications:
College, university, or equivalent Bachelor's degree in Engineering or appropriate STEM field is required.
Post-graduate (Master's) degree relevant to this discipline area may be required for select roles.
This position may require licensing for compliance with export controls or sanctions regulations.
Experience:
Prior Senior or Lead Engineer equivalent work experience in a relevant discipline area is required with a demonstrated track record of technical problem solving and quality decision making. Knowledge of MS Office tools is preferred.
Qualifications

• Technical Communication & Collaboration: Strong listening, documentation, and communication skills; comfortable following processes, asking questions, working hands-on, reading drawings, and collaborating effectively within cross-functional teams.
• Digital & Tool Literacy: Proficient with Microsoft applications and capable of using engineering tools to support calculations, documentation, and technical workflows.
• Learning Mindset & Attention to Detail: Demonstrates curiosity, mechanical inclination, willingness to learn, and high attention to detail-key traits for success in a returnship environment.

Onsite Presence: This role requires a consistent onsite schedule-typically 3 days per week-to support in-person work, real-time coordination, and effective collaboration with team members who perform their duties onsite. Remote or off-site arrangements during the initial assignment period are not supported, as the work depends on direct engagement and timely interaction.
Compensation and Benefits:
Compensation for this role is $9,200/month (subject to applicable withholdings), plus benefits such as health and wellness while in the returnship program.
