Job Description
We are passionate about developing the most advanced and efficient tools and process to help solve hard problems. We create with passion delivering extraordinary solutions to change the world. We challenge...competitors, bureaucracy, obstacles and even our own assumptions. We have zero tolerance for bias or personal agendas. We are swift and decisive... trusting the experts, believing the data, seeking out and listening to bold intuition - regardless of the source. We are insurgents...always progressing, averse to waste, suspicious of habits and open to risk. We constantly learn. We focus on the mission and deliver with urgency and speed. We are an agile team... leading evolution and revolution of technology to innovate, fail fast and pivot. We trust each other, surface issues openly and solve problems collaboratively. Most importantly we raise the talent bar with every hire.
VEHICLE MASS AND CAPABILITY STRATEGY:
o Advance the Mass Strategy through the application of systems engineering principles in collaboration with the Vehicle Dynamics, Global Trailer Tow, Body and Chassis Engineering, Fuel Economy and Emissions, Aerodynamics, Perform and Safety Engineering teams.
o Create and manage the Mass and Load Capabilities Strategy to provide a competitive position against other OEM products
o Advocate for the implementation of the strategy with senior management
MASS MODELING & PREDICTION:
o Perform Mass Property predictions utilizing Ford processes for parametric and analytical methods
o Determine the mass distribution and inertia characteristics that are primary inputs for all subsequent modeling and analysis, including Structural, NVH, Ride and Handling, Crash and Rollover Safety
o Provide mass calculations for Vehicles Loads and ground reactions in various loading conditions
o Manage data in support of legal labeling and spring selection
REGULATORY COMPLIANCE AND GLOBAL HOMOLOGATION:
o Perform calculations of all Masses and Ratings required on Regulatory Load Rating Labels and for legal Homologation for global markets
o Ensure the Vehicle Platform is capable and compatible with all consumer content described in Program Direction and Marketing documentation. Provide strategic direction to the Program Team to resolve any incompatibilities and ensure customer satisfaction and legal compliance
VERIFICATION OF MASS MODEL:
o Perform statistical analysis of vehicle and commodity level mass measurements
o Determine the level of data integrity and finalize analysis in support of compliance demonstration
o Evaluate failure modes in the verification process and lead projects to remediate
o Lead the Vehicle Mass Witness Testing required for globally homologated vehicles
o Occasional travel to assembly plants or global engineering worksites may be a possibility
AUTHORING AND MANAGING INTERNALLY AND EXTERNALLY FACING INFORMATION:
o Author recommendations to Program, Certification Engineering and federal labeling requirements
o Collaborate with Safety and Environmental Engineering on inquiries from global legal authorities, including ECC Technical Services (Europe), NHTSA/EPA (North America), CTARC (China)
o Support Marketing requirements for public facing mass information
The minimum requirements we seek:
Bachelor's Degree is required
5+ years of experience in the ground transportation or aerospace industries in an engineering/analytical capacity
Functional understanding of powertrain, chassis, body structure and electrical systems
Understanding of vehicle architecture, standard vehicle materials properties (e.g. steels, aluminum, plastics, etc.) and assembly plant end of line processes
Knowledge of applied systems engineering, interface management, multi-attribute optimization
Background in applied statistics or Six Sigma subject areas, experience in Minitab
Demonstrated leadership of collaborative/distributed global teams
Solid Understanding of CAE tools (e.g. CATIA, Teamcenter, etc.)
Self-directed, confident individual with excellent communication skills and working knowledge of Microsoft Office
Our preferred requirements:
As an established global company, we offer the benefit of choice. You can choose what your Ford future will look like: will your story span the globe, or keep you close to home?
