Responsibilities:
- Deliver engineering outputs for Train Driver Cabin & Passenger Car interiors, ensuring compliance with Engineering Quality, Cost, and Delivery (QCD) commitments.
- Implement and follow Train Design development procedures & Standards throughout the project lifecycle.
- Organize and lead work package reviews for assigned projects.
- Conduct Risk Assessment and develop Mitigation Plans.
- Contribute to the overall interior architecture of trains/vehicles, considering weight, layout, acoustics, crash safety, and structural constraints.
- Coordinate Design and Verification reviews with stakeholders from car body structure, industrialization, electrical, and mechanical teams.
- Oversee technical solutions, identifying gaps, and ensuring flushness and alignment with relevant standards.
- Perform internal quality checks, ensuring accuracy and consistency in deliverables from both individual and team contributions.
- Technically lead projects, interfacing with internal stakeholders and customer leadership teams to ensure project QCD goals are met.
- Effectively communicate technical ideas in both one-on-one and team settings, proposing innovative solutions when needed.
- Preferred experience in working as a team lead to mentor Junior Engineers.
Required Skills & Qualifications:
