Support restraint system integration work from design concept to vehicle validation
Provide engineering expertise to supplier and internal interfacing departments –Studio and Vehicle Engineering, working particularly close to the CAE team to provide necessary design inputs to optimize the design and occupant restraint performance Provide robust and efficient designs for manufacturing and general assembly processes Ensure suppliers meet timing, quality, cost and validation deliverables Function as the main interaction point of contact for all supplier interfaces Ensure failure avoidance tools and processes (DFMEA/FMA) are applied to restraint components Oversee supplier component DVP and control system level testing to ensure desired performance is achieved prior to dynamic sled and vehicle testing Analyze test results and identify adjustments required to either the restraint commodity or interfacing components, determining most effective resolution Support dynamic sled & vehicle crash tests and homologation submissions.
