MAR_125 - Vehicle DFMEA Engineer — Two-Wheeler Development
Job Description
Vehicle DFMEA Engineer — Two-Wheeler Development
Lead and manage DFMEA activities for complete two-wheeler vehicle development programs, including conventional and electric vehicles. Develop and maintain DFMEA from Vehicle → System → Subsystem → Assembly → Component level.
Key Responsibilities• Define functions, requirements, failure modes, effects, causes, and prevention/detection controls.
• Identify vehicle-level and interface-related risks across chassis, suspension, brakes, powertrain, battery, motor, electrical systems, wiring harness, body, and rider interfaces.
• Conduct DFMEA reviews with Design, Vehicle Integration, CAE, Testing, Manufacturing, Quality, Suppliers, Service, and Program teams.
• Drive risk-reduction actions, track closure, and escalate critical open items.
• Link DFMEA outputs with DVP&R;, design reviews, test plans, PFMEA, Control Plans, and engineering change processes.
• Update DFMEA based on design changes, test results, prototype issues, manufacturing feedback, warranty concerns, and field failures.
• Support lessons learned, DFMEA standardization, and continuous improvement across vehicle programs.
Required Skills• Strong knowledge of AIAG–VDA DFMEA methodology, including structure analysis, function analysis, failure analysis, Action Priority, and risk mitigation.
• Experience in two-wheeler vehicle development, vehicle integration, design engineering, testing, quality, or reliability engineering.
• Understanding of two-wheeler systems: frame, chassis, suspension, steering, brakes, tyres, powertrain, electrical architecture, body systems, and vehicle packaging.
• For EV programs: knowledge of battery pack, BMS, motor, controller, charger, wiring harness, high-voltage safety, and thermal management.
• Familiarity with APQP, PPAP, PFMEA, Control Plans, DVP&R;, 8D, 5 Why, root-cause analysis, and engineering change management.
• Working knowledge of PLM/PDM, BOM, CAD release, and FMEA tools such as APIS IQ-FMEA, ReliaSoft XFMEA, or equivalent.
• Strong cross-functional communication, workshop facilitation, action tracking, and technical documentation skills.
Preferred ProfileBachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Automobile, Electrical, Electronics, or Mechatronics Engineering, with 4–8 years of automotive/two-wheeler product-development experience. Experience in electric two-wheeler development and AIAG–VDA FMEA training is preferred.
