Development/Validation Engineer - Performance/Durability testing for E-Motors/In
India, Auburn Hills, Michigan, United States, 48326
Overview
The Development & Validation Engineer for Electric Drive Systems will report directly to an Engineering Manager and indirectly to a Lead Engineer. They will serve as the single-point contact for Design Verification Plan & Report (DVP&R) activities for an Electric Drive System and/or component(s). This role will ensure activities are completed on-time and with quality. Additionally, this role will create standards and coordinate internal and external testing and related activities. This role is a mix of project management and test engineering and is well suited for a person looking to expand their knowledge of automotive Electric Drive Systems. A qualified candidate will apply their first-principles mind-set to take ownership where ambiguity is present. Major Job Elements
Establish yourself as the single-point contact for all DVP&R related activities Review and comprehend project timing charts and major deliverable dates Review and comprehend performance and durability requirements and adjust DVP&R accordingly Compile and release DVP&R(s) Track completion of all required DVP&R activities and technical reports Maintain overall status of DVP&R completion. Publish periodic status reports to leadership and stakeholders. Collect, process, and present typical engineering data, e.g. time-series data acquisition from physical testing Author technical reports for DVP&R activities Participate in Stellantis and Supplier meetings as the voice of the DVP&R. Provide verbal and written updates to leadership and stakeholders. Host periodic DVP&R-related tactical meetings including published minutes and action items Author incident reports via the Stellantis problem tracking system for product issues discovered during DVP&R activities Review and approve Supplier 8D reports for incidents occurring during DVP&R activities Comprehend accelerated testing and reliability demonstration, perform related calculations Provide indirect leadership for offshore Validation Engineers Create and document best practices for DVP&Rs and related components Coordinate with internal and external engineering stakeholders to develop test standards, testing protocols, and procedures Participate in Design Failure Mode Effects & Analysis (DFMEA) activities as a key contributor Lead Design Review Based on Test Results activities for Electric Drive Systems and related components Ensure readiness for in-house and outsourced test labs, including design and procurement of fixtures and Device Under Test (DUT) interconnects Develop application-specific durability tests based on expected customer usage and target life requirements Develop and employ accelerated test methods and test-to-failure techniques Support design change discussions. Make recommendations for DVP&R activities to detect possible failures. Write work orders, purchase requests, etc. for outsourced testing and other procurement Provide direction to offshore and external resources as needed Frequent day travel to local testing facilities, typically within 20 miles of the Chrysler Technology Center in Auburn Hills, MI Basic Qualifications
