Qualifikationen

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
• A minimum of 8 years of engineering experience.
• Strong automotive E/E background with electronic modules, embedded hardware, vehicle networks, or energy-management systems.
• Solid understanding of electronic hardware development, module integration, supplier development, validation, diagnostics, EMC, thermal robustness, and manufacturing constraints.
• Good knowledge of quality methods and deliverables, including DFMEA, DVP&R, APQP, PPAP, control plans, risk management, problem solving, and Lessons Learned deployment.
• Ability to assess design integrity by verifying standards compliance, process adherence, deliverable maturity, review evidence, field feedback integration, supplier execution, and cross-functional action closure.
• Experience working with Engineering, HW/SW teams, Manufacturing, Supplier Quality, Customer Care, Technical Centers, and suppliers in a complex automotive environment.
• Good knowledge of Microsoft Office tools and ability to work with STLA tools such as PLM, Quantic, Lessons Learned, Bulletin, Teamcenter, and Enovia.
• Project management capability, including prioritization, governance, escalation, action-plan tracking, and decision preparation.

Aufgaben

• Lead proactive analysis of customer claims, warranty data, plant defects, launch issues, supplier data, and connected-vehicle feedback to identify HW E/E risk patterns and prevent recurrence.
• Ensure design integrity for electronic hardware systems by verifying that hardware design standards, engineering rules, release processes, quality checkpoints, and expected deliverables are consistently applied and achieved.
• Work closely with Engineering teams to review design alternatives, challenge technical assumptions, compare options from a quality, robustness, serviceability, and customer-impact perspective, and support the selection of the most appropriate technical solution.
• Verify the completion and robustness of DFMEA, design reviews, DVP&R, validation evidence, detection plans, risk assessments, Lessons Learned deployment, supplier deliverables, and quality-gate evidence.
• Release a structured quality report at each project milestone, summarizing expected deliverables, completion status, risk assessment, open gaps, and recovery plans when deliverables are not achieved.
• Drive root-cause analysis across hardware design, software/hardware interaction, supplier manufacturing, vehicle integration, and service processes.
• Ensure robust quality execution for Body Control Module, RFHM, Secure Gateway, Zonal Control Unit, and 12V Battery Energy Management systems.
• Assess supplier design and process maturity, including component traceability, failure analysis capability, process capability, end-of-line testing, software flashing, calibration, and containment effectiveness.
• Manage technical risks, deviations, missed deliverables, and open quality points through clear recovery plans, action ownership, escalation, governance, and timely closure.
• Capitalize Lessons Learned and Best Practices into design standards, process checklists, validation criteria, technical audit criteria, deliverable expectations, and quality gates.
• Support launch readiness by reviewing hardware maturity, supplier PPAP status, diagnostic readiness, plant implementation, service procedures, and field-monitoring strategy.
• Lead technical reviews with Engineering, HW/SW teams, Manufacturing, Supplier Quality, Purchasing, Technical Centers, Cybersecurity, Functional Safety, Customer Care, and Service Engineering.
