Principal Engineer - EV Platforms

Principal Engineer-Platforms

Job Profile (Accountabilities):

 

• Sets vehicle -level performance targets as Range, dynamics,efficiency,safety
• Awareness of emerging EV trends and technologies along with EV regulations
• Understanding of dark current strategy
• Understanding of IP67 requirements
• Exposure to vehicle performance evaluation

• Takes inputs from CoEs/PPH for cost and weight optimization against targets
• Takes inputs from Validation COE for project risks on performance & reliability
• Focus on regulatory compliance and zero validation failures
• Technology adoption from R&D to production
• Strong technical expertise in EV architecture, dynamics and performance engineering.

 

 

 

• Ensures achievement of all system as well as vehicle-level performance targets set, thereby ensuring:

• Selecting correct set of benchmarks and deciding FI targets with CFT
• Ensures right integration of all the EV systems (Battery, E-axle BMS, inverter,IPDU,VCU,cooling system) with the help of VA&VI
• Timely closure of all engg. Decisions with desired quality, optimum cost and minimum deviations
• Delivery of Product targets (Performance, Weight, Cost, etc)
• Ensure timely completion of technical sign-off by CoEs.
• Evaluate feasible engineering solutions for timely closure of all ORCs/concerns raised by all support CoEs /labs
• Suggest technical risk mitigation plans to CPH

 

 

 

• Ensures all performance trade-offs are in conformance with platform targets:

• Solves for performance trade-offs and reallocates performance targets across systems/CoEs that lie within pre-defined limits to ensure that there are no overall Performance deviations

• Completes engineering sign-off for project handover to manufacturing/ PVE for Launch
