Job Purpose
- As the FGL for Vehicle Dynamics within Chassis Systems, lead the development and optimization of vehicle dynamic performance for NPD - Commercial Mobility Business products covering 3W and 4W vehicles.
- Own the ride, handling, stability, steering response, braking integration and overall chassis dynamic targets, ensuring alignment with customer usage, safety, durability, weight, cost and regulatory requirements.
- Work cross-functionally with design, simulation, testing, vehicle integration, manufacturing, quality, purchasing, service and supplier teams to deliver robust, validated and platform-reusable solutions.
- Drive current-product problem solving, new-product delivery and future technology readiness for Vehicle Dynamics within 3W and 4W Chassis Systems.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the definition, deployment and achievement of vehicle dynamics targets across 3W and 4W product lines, covering ride comfort, handling, steering feel, braking feel, stability, controllability and chassis integration.
- Translate customer, market, regulatory and program requirements into measurable chassis and vehicle-level dynamic performance targets.
- Lead vehicle dynamics architecture decisions and technical sign-offs in coordination with Frames, Suspension, Steering, Brakes, Wheels & Tyres, Vehicle Integration, CAE, Testing and Controls teams.
- Define technical requirements and ensure designs meet QCD expectations including performance, durability, safety, weight, manufacturability and cost targets.
- Review simulation methods, virtual validation outputs and physical test results for ride & handling, stability, braking integration, steering response, K&C, durability and vehicle-level correlation.
- Establish and maintain test procedures, design guidelines, SOPs, DVPs and DFMEA inputs related to Vehicle Dynamics and Chassis System integration.
- Lead objective data analysis and correlation with subjective evaluation feedback to enable faster convergence of vehicle performance maturity.
- Drive problem-solving initiatives for current products, field concerns and development issues related to ride, handling, stability, braking response and chassis behavior.
- Lead value engineering and standardization initiatives across platforms, minimizing variety while ensuring appropriate product differentiation for 3W and 4W applications.
- Manage multiple development programs, prioritize deliverables and drive timely technical decisions in alignment with program milestones.
- Ensure compliance with applicable safety, homologation and internal engineering standards for vehicle dynamic performance.
- Mentor and develop engineers in vehicle dynamics, structured validation, data analytics, cross-functional issue resolution and career development.
- Manage external interactions with suppliers, test agencies and technology partners for vehicle dynamics components, instrumentation, validation and benchmarking support.
