What You'll Do
You’ll own the engineering design of complex Low Voltage Subsystems and Components through their entire lifecycle (e.g. Body or Vehicle Control Modules, User Interface Systems, Power Distribution Systems, etc) Your main crossfunctional interfaces will be with Electrical and Software Engineering, Supply Chain, Supplier Quality, and Program Management. Concept & Requirements: Utilize vehicle and system requirements to establish your subsystem architecture and component requirements. Define critical interfaces with mechanical, electrical and software systems. Perform proof of concept studies and create prototypes to validate initial assumptions. Sourcing & Supplier Selection: Evaluate available industry components and suppliers to determine the appropriate sourcing strategy. Co-develop Request for Quote (RFQ) packages and Statements of Work (SOW) with Supply Chain colleagues. Support supplier assessment and sign off on supplier selection. Design, Development, & Validation: Lead technical development of your component utilizing both in-house capabilities and supplier resources. Guide the supplier through technical roadblocks to ensure functional and timing requirements are met. Ensure design iterations are appropriately documented and communicated via 3D CAD, electrical specifications, etc. Ensure the component schedule is accurate, flag lead-time risk early and keep supplier deliveries on track for prototype and production builds. Co-develop the Design Validation Plan (DVP) with the supplier and review test results to ensure product quality. Production Launch: Collect and maintain all necessary documentation to release your components within the Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) system. Support Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) and Start of Production (SOP) activities for your component. Sustaining Engineering: Drive continuous improvement to cost, quality, and functionality of your components. Lead root cause activities for plant and field issues, and support supplier quality issues. Initiate and manage Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) as necessary.
