Manage CAE resources to analytically validate designs
Develop & execute hardware test plans to validate function while maintaining relevant DVP&R documentation:

o Process data

o Document test results

o Report on status both internally as well as externally to customers

Interface and coordinate with suppliers to deliver both prototype parts and production solutions
Support prototype and pre-production build events
Support production launch for responsible components/systems
Support HV system architecture layouts and hardware sizing activities
Select and package of electric powertrain hardware such as high voltage battery systems, electric motors and inverters, gearboxes, driveline, power electronics, and electric accessories
Design and development of HV junction boxes comprised of busbars, contactors, fuses and relays
HV wire harness design including component selection, and routing

To be considered a Powertrain Product Engineer I, you will need:
