The department reports into the Head, PVBU Engineering. The APC Team comprises of 5 zonal architecture groups and 1 function. viz:
1.Engine Bay Architecture
2. BIW Architecture
3.Interior Architecture
4. Exterior Architecture
5.Cockpit Architecture
6. BOM and DMU
Roles & Responsibilities
- To study product requirements, seek any additional inputs required for product conceptualization.
- To create new product concepts, proposals for implementing new aggregates, features.
- To perform alternate evaluations of products, their platform and architecture.
- To analyse PALs, preliminary PAT targets. Provide alternate solutions for compliance. Give recommendations for preferences and balancing.
- To perform feasibility studies for functional, packaging, regulation, performance, features, carryover strategy, quality targets, cost and time requirements etc. Ensure all basic checks of DFMEA, PFMEA DFM, DFA, KPR and DFS necessary and sufficient for product conceptualization are completed.
- To perform/ analyse core & adjacent competitor benchmarking, analysis for BIW architecture zone.
- To plan & execute pre-DR0 CAE activity, ensure compliance to the preliminary PAT requirements.
- Provide functional expertise for BIW engineering feasibility & its vehicle level integration aspects. For re-solving critical platform, architectural, Integrity associated and Manufacturing issues.
- To create & implement design guidelines, standards and best practices for aggregate integration, vehicle platform, architecture. Update for lessons learnt, regulatory, consumer protocols and other environmental changes.
- To device & implement efficiency improvement measures across vehicle integration function.
- To build capability of OPL, VPL. Continuous upgradation of Vehicle Platforms and Architecture knowledge base. And implementing the learnings for competitive advantage.
- To study and anticipate new features, technologies, upcoming regulations. General feasibility checks and plan for integration of the same. Assess impact of future PT requirements, Design trends, Markets etc. for the BIW architecture zone.
- To plan, monitor, co-ordinate, and lead BIW architecture zone & Projects from pre-KO till DR0. Responsible for all engineering progress and deliverables.
Education
Work Experience
- Work along with product planning, design (style), regulatory, performance, Engineering, prototyping etc functions for flawless DR0 delivery. As well as for any new product conceptualization.
