Product Design Engineer
for each section heading.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits.
We need
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading.
We must not put Job ID etc.
We need to preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to remove boilerplate: About Actalent, EEO, accommodation, etc. Also remove Application Deadline? It's minor metadata; we can drop it. Also remove Workplace Type maybe duplicate of onsite; but we already have onsite in description; we could keep Work Environment section maybe.
We have Work Environment paragraph: "This role is 100% onsite in a collaborative, team-oriented environment focused on automotive product development. The workplace operates at a fast pace, supporting multiple customer programs simultaneously, and emphasizes open communication, cooperation, and a positive team atmosphere. The engineer will work closely with cross-functional colleagues and external partners, using Catia V5 and related engineering tools in a structured product development process."
That's substantive; could be part of About the role or separate section? Could be "Work Environment". But we only have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. No Work Environment heading. So we should incorporate that content into About the role or maybe Skills? Probably About the role can include that description. The About the role currently is the first paragraph; we can extend it with the Work Environment paragraph.
Thus About the role section will contain two paragraphs: first about role responsibilities overview, second about work environment.
Now Responsibilities: list each bullet.
Skills: combine Essential Skills and Additional Skills & Qualifications? But we also have Qualifications maybe separate. Let's decide: Use Skills section for both essential and additional skills? But we also have Qualifications (degree). Could put Qualifications separate.
We need to follow headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We have no explicit Requirements separate from Skills; but we can treat Requirements as maybe the essential skills? However we have both Essential Skills and Additional Skills & Qualifications. Could map:
- Requirements: maybe the essential skills (proficiency, years experience, etc.)? Or we could treat Requirements as the essential skills and Qualifications as education etc. But we need to not create empty sections.
We have content for:
- Essential Skills (list)
- Additional Skills & Qualifications (list includes degree, experience with suppliers, senior-level, etc.)
We could put Requirements = Essential Skills (since they are requirements). Qualifications = Additional Skills & Qualifications (includes degree). Skills = maybe combine both? But we need to avoid duplication.
Better: Use Requirements for the essential skills (proficiency, years experience, etc.). Use Qualifications for the additional skills & qualifications (degree, supplier experience, senior-level). Use Skills maybe not needed if we already covered. But we need to decide if we should include Skills section; we could omit if no distinct content left. However we have both Essential and Additional; we could combine them into Skills section and not have Requirements/Qualifications separate. But the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Skills (combining essential+additional), Benefits, Pay. That's four sections. That seems reasonable.
We must not create sections with filler. So we will not include Requirements or Qualifications if we merge into Skills.
Thus sections:
- About the role (h3) with paragraphs: role description + work environment.
- Responsibilities (h3) with ul list.
- Skills (h3) with ul list combining essential skills and additional skills & qualifications.
- Benefits (h3) with ul list of benefits.
- Pay (h3) with p containing pay range sentence.
We should not include Schedule.
We need to preserve all substantive info: ensure we include all bullet points from Responsibilities, Essential Skills, Additional Skills & Qualifications, Benefits list, Pay range, Work Environment description.
Let's extract.
Responsibilities bullets (as given):
- Design plastic automotive parts using Catia V5, focusing on high-quality, manufacturable components.
- Develop and refine 3D models and drawings, including work with Class A surfaces to achieve precise fit and finish.

- Participate in design reviews and cross-functional meetings to communicate design intent and ensure alignment with program goals.
- Document design decisions, specifications, and DFMEA findings in accordance with established product development processes.
- Contribute to a positive, team-oriented culture by sharing knowledge, mentoring less experienced engineers, and supporting multiple customer programs.
Essential Skills bullets:
- Proficiency in Catia V5 for 3D modeling and detailed design of mechanical components.
- 5–10 years of experience in product design, preferably within the automotive industry.
- Hands-on experience designing plastic parts for automotive applications.
- Experience working with Class A surfaces to achieve high-quality aesthetic and functional surfaces.
- Strong communication skills to collaborate effectively with customers, suppliers, and internal teams.
- Ability to work collaboratively in a team-oriented environment and contribute to shared project goals.
- Understanding of the DFMEA process and its application to identifying and mitigating potential product failures.
- Background in automotive product development and launch processes.
Additional Skills & Qualifications bullets:
- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering preferred.
- Experience with automotive suppliers preferred over OEM experience.
- Experience working with component suppliers is highly desirable.
- Senior-level engineering experience is preferred, with a track record of supporting similar product development environments.
- Previous experience in fast-paced product development settings supporting multiple customer programs.
Benefits list (from Pay And Benefits):
- Medical, dental & vision
- Critical Illness, Accident, and Hospital
- 401(k) Retirement Plan – Pre-tax and Roth post-tax contributions available
- Life Insurance (Voluntary Life & AD&D for the employee and dependents)
- Short and long-term disability
- Health Spending Account (HSA)
- Transportation benefits
- Employee Assistance Program
- Time Off/Leave (PTO, Vacation or Sick Leave)
Pay range: "$45.00 - $50.00/hr. Individual compensation offered for this position within this range will depend on many factors, including qualifications, skills, relevant experience, job knowledge, geographic location, internal equity, and other pertinent job-related factors."
We need to keep that sentence.
Now About the role paragraph: combine first paragraph and work environment paragraph.
First paragraph: "The Catia Design Engineer will support both new automotive product launches and ongoing development of existing product lines, with a primary focus on designing plastic components. This role works fully onsite in a collaborative, fast-paced product development environment and involves owning the design process from concept through DFMEA, ensuring robust, reliable parts that meet customer requirements."
Work environment paragraph: "This role is 100% onsite in a collaborative, team-oriented environment focused on automotive product development. The workplace operates at a fast pace, supporting multiple customer programs simultaneously, and emphasizes open communication, cooperation, and a positive team atmosphere. The engineer will work closely with cross-functional colleagues and external partners, using Catia V5 and related engineering tools in a structured product development process."
We can merge them, maybe two paragraphs.
