Job Summary

Description

Responsibilities

Target setting: Undertake benchmarking set targets at vehicle system and component level to enable internal regulatory and public domain safety performance
Content specification: Define vehicle and restraints content to enable program targets
Occupant safety CAE simulation: LS-Dyna simulation with pre and post processing tools including issue resolution development and optimization of vehicle interior seatbelts and airbags for occupant injury criteria
Test Planning: Liaison with PMTs to organize safety test planning at sub system and full vehicle level
Logistics: Support test logistics globally to ensure right parts right place at the right time
Execution of tests: Supervision of testing to ensure execution to the right specification to right quality level and in a timely manner
Analysis: Analyse test data and use observation to draw correct conclusions from the tests.
