The Automotive division is active throughout the NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) area. Its customer base consists primarily of a large number of global automakers and ********************** is ranked as one of the top 100 suppliers to the automotive industry.
********************* Bedfordshire site is part of the recent purchase of *********************. Coupled with ********************** other business activities it now represents one of the leading global suppliers of automotive hose systems.
The Role
Overall Purpose
This role will be to provide design support for coolant hose systems and pipework for underbonnet engine programmes to some of ******************* key customers. The role will be based at Jaguar’s engineering centre in Whitley and will be a mixture of hands on design and some project management and customer liaison, working from customer inception right through to and beyond the start of production.
The role begins with a customer specification for a new hose system. This consists of the dimensions, positioning and flow rates the system has to handle. The design engineer will then work closely with the customer’s engineering team to develop an engineered solution. This will need to take into account the packaging of all underbonnet components to avoid interference from other systems.
This work will be planned into the overall project timings developed by the UK Engineering Manager who will feed this plan back to the Design Engineer. The Design Engineer is then responsible for planning their own workload to meet agreed customer deadlines. It will need to take into account the delivery of prototypes into the customer’s schedule. This is something the Design Engineer will be heavily involved in sometimes on a hands on basis.
The role as a whole is around 70% design and 30% other duties. These other duties will include liaison with the different departments of *********************, over a number of issues. The Design Engineer will be responsible for completing DFMEA’s and their submission, delivering the designs used in production, producing BOM’s and liasing with Trelleborg’s suppliers over bought in parts and new technology available. They will also be the eyes and ears of the company providing valuable information about the customer and competitor activity. Effectively the Design Engineer will be Trelleborg’s main point of contact with the customer and will have, along with the UK Engineering Manager, responsibility for the correct delivery of projects to the customer.
Once a programme successfully goes into the production the Design Engineer will be responsible for monitoring its progress and making any engineering changes that become necessary. This will mean visiting ********************* and customer production sites to identify any potential issues. They will also be heavily involved in the standard annual cost | | |
