- Define and execute short-term containment actions, including rework plans, part quarantine, and build flow protection
- Collaborate cross-functionally to lead root cause analysis across design, process, supplier, and manufacturing domains, identify and prioritize blockers, and drive Design for Manufacturing (DFM) improvements.
- Support cross-functional teams to implement permanent corrective actions (PCA) and prevent recurrence
- Support prototype builds, production trials, and engineering changes to validate fixes and improve manufacturability
- Develop and maintain metrics, dashboards, and reporting to track issue health, closure rates, and recurrence and improve PIRT processes, including issue tracking, prioritization, and cross-functional execution
Qualifications
B.S. or M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering or related technical field
8 to 12 years of experience in automotive OEMs, robotics, aviation, or other complex hardware systems within manufacturing, product engineering, or sustaining environments
Strong understanding of vehicle electrical systems, wiring harnesses and connectors, control units, compute, and sensor hardware
Proven experience leading root cause analysis and corrective actions in production, manufacturing, or field environments, including new product launch support
Strong cross functional communication and problem solving skills with the ability to operate effectively in a fast paced environment
Bonus Qualifications
- Experience with Design for Manufacturing (DFM), production process optimization, Lean, Six Sigma, or similar continuous improvement methodologies
- Experience in autonomous vehicles, robotics, or EV systems
- Familiarity with tools such as 3DX (Dassault), DELMIA, SAP ME/MII, JIRA, Confluence, SQL, Python, or data visualization tools
