The position is part of the Product Audit Team within the Corporate Manufacturing & Outbound Quality Department, with a primary focus on projects in North America (NA) and South America (SA).
From the earliest project phase, starting with the first mock-ups, the role is responsible for defining the aspect quality deliverables in line with customer expectations and internal technical expertise. These deliverables are progressively formalized throughout the project through the development of measurement standards. These standards serve as the foundation for deploying aspect quality measurements during the project lifecycle, ensuring consistency, robustness, and alignment with both customer requirements and industrial capabilities.
Main activities:
- Identify key risks on mock-ups by assessing customer expectations and leveraging industrial feedback. Perform evaluations of both physical mock-ups and digital models during the design phase, in close collaboration with the quality engineering and the Perceived Quality team, and report status at each project milestone
- Define and deliver aspect quality standards for both new and produced vehicles by establishing Gap & Flush rules during the detailed design phase.
- Ensure adaptation of standards to project-specific constraints and plant environments, taking into account process variability (standard deviation) and contributing to the continuous update of the referential.
- Adapt measurement methodologies to different use cases, including:
- Exhaustive part measurements, DPVA (Project vehicle appearance assessment), Core DPVA (Serial life assessment)
- Train and support calibration teams on the referential by providing theoretical presentations and hands-on application during the first X0 vehicles, ensuring proper understanding and consistent implementation
- Continuously improve standards by analyzing customer feedback and survey results, ensuring alignment with evolving customer expectations
Basic Qualifications:
- Availability for occasional business trips within North America (NA) and South America (SA)
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering
- 7+ years of relevant Engineering experience
- Knowledge of automotive body, equipment, and painting processes
- Strong understanding of quality measurement in both mass production and project phases
- Proficiency in planning and project management tools
- Strong analytical and synthesis skills
- High level of intellectual rigor and attention to detail
- Excellent communication, argumentation, and facilitation skills
