General Motors
Overview
This role supports the Vehicle Systems Product Interface Team and will provide a consistent voice of Manufacturing to Product Engineering for a given global architecture/style. In this job you will represent Manufacturing while interfacing with Product Engineering and the program team. Review designs and assess the assembly methods of these designs to ensure they drive common processes and meet Manufacturing Requirements while innovating to minimize labor and complexity impacts to the plants. Analyze the overall impact to GM and make the best enterprise decisions to help set the direction for a program. Support meetings with Product Engineering and be the voice of manufacturing. Conduct and assess dynamic and static studies, virtual reality reviews, process virtual builds, assess ergonomic impacts, support prototype builds and many others to ensure designs meet manufacturing requirements and are buildable to our standard processes.
Responsibilities
Analyze product designs and collaborate with Product Engineering to incorporate manufacturing requirements
Communicate product information & requirements to Product Interface Leads and Program Execution Manufacturing Engineers.
Enforce compliance to General Assembly strategies
Verify Vehicle Manufacturing Requirements are met or execute deviation approval process
Track issues, elevate appropriately to leadership when necessary, and document deviations
Lead resolution of issues with Product Engineering and with Global Manufacturing Engineering partners
Conduct virtual studies/assessments throughout Vehicle Development Process
Support program Level 2 PFMEA workshops
Initiate / Conduct program Level 2 PFMEA workshops
Participate in Product Engineering peer reviews (ePeer Process)
Participate in Component Readiness Reviews (CRV process)
Document process & tooling requirements for regional execution and ensure compliance by all executing assembly plants
Drive product designs with the lowest Base Engineered Content (BEC) and participate in BEC reduction workshops
Develop & communicate program compartment level 2 build sequence
Identify and communicate potential ergo issues to program ergonomist
Attend and support IVER and/or PTB builds (mandatory in person) and Assembly Plant builds (as needed)
Act as IRT co-chair during IVER and/or PTB builds at Pre-Production Facility
Act as the Global Issue Resolution Team (IRT) co-chair and drive common solutions across the regions of build.
Required Skills, Abilities and Experiences
2+ years of experience working in manufacturing engineering or 5 year's experience in Product Engineering in propulsion systems, chassis or suspension design
Experience working on a program launch with assembly plants preferably with General Assembly/Final Assembly.
Self-motivated and autonomous achiever
Excellent communication skills (verbal and written)
Ability to make complex concepts/issues easily understood
Strong VIS Mockup skills or ability to learn software tools quickly
Preferred Qualification
Experience in ME Execution, Tooling, and General Assembly Plant Knowledge or Product Engineering in propulsion systems, chassis or suspension design
GM Systems including: MPS, VAA, ECR/EDGE, Auros, FIT, Momentum (GVDP), PRTS, LMS,
Experience in Exterior Trim, Chassis, Powertrain, or Interior Trim systems
Knowledge of Virtual Simulation (VS) Manufacturing Engineering processes and Teamcenter
Optional Skills, Abilities and Experiences
Experience with electrical harnesses, Components, Software, End of Line Electrical program/debug is major benefit
Red X, DFSS, and/or OpEx capabilities
Industrial Engineering experience
