Job Description

Responsibilities & Key Deliverables

----------------------------------------


Act as the single point of contact for BIW Trims & CAE performance and delivery. Coordinate with COEs, CAE teams, prototype teams, and validation teams to define, communicate, and validate performance targets throughout the vehicle development lifecycle. Collate requirements from external customers (PM, marketing, product planning, service, styling) to converge product design and delivery. Manage durability and other performance delivery from initialization to SOP as per MEPDS guidelines. Oversee CAE delivery scope, including defining scope, interpreting results, resolving analysis-related issues, and achieving results in FEA (structural durability, thermal analysis, fatigue life calculation, etc.). Conduct RLDA for vehicle and part-level simulation, validate through accelerated testing programs, and manage fatigue damage accumulation and duty cycles. Ensure convergence of vehicle styling with external customers (CME, perceived quality, styling) and internal teams (VI, BIW, Trims). Lead benchmarking activities through sensory evaluations and quantitative assessments to set competitive performance targets. Coordinate with internal and external labs for materials, validation, and testing to ensure project delivery. Make decisions, propose alternate solutions for non-achievable targets, and negotiate for optimal outcomes. Organize and lead regular review meetings to discuss attribute status, risks, and corrective actions, providing timely updates to the Vehicle Engineering Head. Develop and maintain a comprehensive dashboard to track BIW Trims & CAE project targets across all development phases.
