Overview the vehicle system release (vsr) must ensure the development and delivery of the interior, mechatronics and nvh vehicle system that meets all the design requirements and functional objectives in categories of quality, cost (investment and variable), technical and timing/planning. In addition, the vsr must ensure that all critical key process indicators are met at each development phase through launch and including lifecycle vehicle actions. The vsr must also work closely with each discipline manager (engineering director) within interior, mechatronics and nvh and his/her large team to ensure that there is complete alignment on achieving all program objectives and specific development principles, processes, and methods. Specific tasks include, but are not limited to: ensure (with release engineers, supervisors, and managers) the completeness/availability of all documents necessary for sourcing start-up (source package), keeping them up to date and consistent with sourcing closing due dates develop milestone reviews (scorecards) & ensure all engineering key process indicators (kpis) meet these milestones achieve targets to quality, material cost, investment, research & development, weight, and timing by program milestones perform tool kickoff process with suppliers, ensuring the completeness/availability of all documents necessary for tooling release and guaranteeing on-time delivery of parts support build activities including problem solving activities lead troubleshooting of suppliers as they are faced with design or manufacturing/dimensional issues urgently address open issue resolution through corporate systems/processes develop and execute (with engineers, supervisors, managers) change management process including establishing proper electronic bill of material (ebom) manage project execution according to best global standards for current and new versions of vehicle ensure sub-system certifications and compliance for components / vehicles build and maintain budget for r&d; ensure delivery to budget interface with multiple engineering and non-engineering teams including purchasing, brand, planning, manufacturing teams to ensure successful development and launch of project. Evaluate pilot vehicle test plans and establish parts, quantities and associated cost required to support execution estimate the number labor hours required for full time engineers to develop and validate new component designs based on vehicle function objectives and impact to existing component designs confirm dimensional stability and fit/finish requirements for systems/components during pilot builds to ensure robust quality of customer vehicles at launch basic qualifications: bachelor of science electrical, mechanical, software, or systems engineering or an equivalent from an abet accredited university 10 years of automotive experience or other related experience j-18808-ljbffr
