Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Files H-1B transfers

4 transfer filings in the last year, covering 4 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

About the role

  • We innovate in the next generation electric vehicle and energy storage technologies (lithium batteries and related systems) with the aim to accelerate electrified transportation and achieve sustainable development.
  • Gotion is powered by a leading power battery technology company that provides solutions for vehicles including the world's first mass commercial e-bus route.
  • Everyone is highly valued and plays a vital role in the growth of our organization.

Responsibilities

  • Design battery-pack mechanical architecture, including enclosure structural concepts, module and cell retention, pack-to-vehicle interfaces, sealing, venting, cooling hardware integration, and serviceability.
  • Develop and own pack-level CAD layouts, detailed 3D component models, assemblies, and production drawings for enclosures, covers, cold plates, brackets, seals, mounting systems, and related components.
  • Translate customer and system requirements into mechanical designs, interface definitions, and verification criteria. Lead tradeoffs across safety, performance, mass, cost, packaging, and manufacturing.
  • Perform packaging studies, engineering calculations, and tolerance analyses. Define critical dimensions, GD&T, and interfaces, and take designs through formal release.
  • Partner with electrical, thermal, systems, CAE, manufacturing, and quality teams to resolve integration challenges.
  • Incorporate analysis and test results into designs to meet structural durability, electrical isolation, and thermal-event management requirements.
  • Select materials, joining methods, and manufacturing processes suited to high-volume production. Work directly with suppliers to refine component designs and resolve manufacturing and assembly challenges.
  • Lead mechanical design reviews and DFMEA activities. Define validation priorities with test and analysis teams, assess results, and drive root-cause investigation and corrective design changes through closure.
  • Support prototype builds, inspect hardware, troubleshoot fit and assembly issues, and implement improvements through CAD and drawing updates.
  • Establish and improve design standards, drawing practices, and technical documentation. Mentor engineers through hands-on problem-solving and CAD and drawing reviews.

Nice to have

  • Select materials, joining methods, and manufacturing processes suited to high-volume production.
  • Mentor engineers through hands-on problem-solving and CAD and drawing reviews.
  • BS in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline
  • Typically 10+ years of relevant mechanical engineering experience, with demonstrated ownership of complex automotive, battery, or electrification hardware.
  • Strong expertise in structural assemblies, sealing, materials, joining methods, and thermal hardware integration.
  • Strong understanding of high-volume manufacturing processes, such as stamping, casting, extrusion, injection molding, welding, and adhesive bonding, including automa
