Job Description
Bus & Truck | Operating Depots
Reports to: Head of Contract Manufacturing
Location: Mumbai, Pune with Need based Travel
Type: Full-time
Role Summary
Own the stabilization of newly launched EV buses and trucks at operating depots. You resolve early-life vehicle problems quickly, drive permanent fixes with the manufacturer and design teams, and ensure smooth induction of each new product into daily operation, so fleets reach target uptime and the customer's confidence is built from day one.
Key Responsibilities
Depot induction and stabilization
Plan and lead induction of new vehicles at depots: commissioning checks, charging readiness, driver and maintenance team briefing, and trial runs.
Run a structured stabilization program for each new product or batch (typically the first 3-6 months): daily issue tracking, uptime monitoring and escalation.
Deploy and manage field engineers at depots; ensure round-the-clock response during the initial run-in period.
Co-ordinate with maintenance and OEM tech support team for resolution of recurring issues.
Field Issue resolution along with OEMs for various ongoing projects
Problem resolution
Diagnose and resolve early-life issues across the e-powertrain, battery/BMS, charging, HV systems, thermal management, brakes, HVAC, body and electronics.
Use telematics, fault-code and fleet data to detect patterns, find root causes (8D, 5-Why, FTA) and separate product, process, charging-infrastructure and operator-driven causes.
Drive permanent corrective actions with the CM/OEM, design and suppliers, and verify fixes on the vehicle, including software updates and retrofits.
Manage retrofit and campaign rollout across depots, with tracking to closure.
Operations and customer interface
Be the technical point of contact for depot managers, fleet operators and STUs on new product issues.
Coordinate spare parts, service support and warranty resolution so vehicles are not off-road for long.
Train drivers and depot maintenance staff on operation, charging practices, HV safety and basic troubleshooting.
Support charging infrastructure readiness and performance (CCS2/GB-T, charger-vehicle compatibility, power availability).
Feedback and governance
Feed field learnings into design, manufacturing and PDI checkpoints to prevent recurrence in new builds.
Track stabilization KPIs and issue closure; report to leadership and customers through regular reviews.
Support warranty analysis and cost recovery from the CM/suppliers.
Lead and develop a team of field engineers and depot coordinators.
Authority
Prioritize and escalate field issues across CM, design and supplier teams
Recommend vehicle withdrawal, stop-use or campaign actions on safety-critical issues
Sign off on vehicle stabilization exit and handover to regular service
Qualifications
B.E./B.Tech in Mechanical, Automobile or Electrical/Electronics Engineering.
10-14 years in the automotive CV industry, with at least 6-8 years in field issue resolution, product stabilization, service or fleet operations. Direct experience with electric buses or trucks preferred.
Skills
Strong knowledge of bus and truck systems and EV architecture: battery, BMS, motor, inverter, charging, HV safety
Field diagnostics using EV diagnostic tools and telematics/fleet data
8D, 5-Why, FTA, FMEA, Pareto
Warranty, spare parts and service processes
Understanding of CMVR, AIS standards (AIS-038, 039, 156, 004) and depot operations
Stakeholder management with operators, STUs, OEMs and suppliers; calm and decisive under pressure
Valid HV safety training or certification is a plus
KPIs
Fleet uptime/availability during stabilization
Time to resolve (MTTR) and open-issue ageing
Repeat and early-life failure rate (per 1,000 km or per vehicle)
Retrofit/campaign closure rate
Depot and customer satisfaction
Warranty cost and recovery
Time to stabilization exit for each product
Working Conditions
Travel across depots (indicative 50-60%); may be stationed at a depot during launch; flexibility for extended hours during induction and breakdown escalations.
