Vehicle Architecture &

- Packaging: Lead the overall spatial layout and packaging of the machine; manage the master vehicle 3D model and layout structure for excavators and wheel loaders.

 Subsystem Synchronization: Coordinate with the Hydraulics, Powertrain

(Battery/Motor), and Structural teams to ensure interference-free integration and optimal routing of high-voltage cables and hydraulic hoses.

 Weight &

- CG Management: Maintain strict control over vehicle weight distribution and Center of Gravity (CG) to ensure machine stability, high payload performance,

and structural integrity.

 Serviceability &

- Ergonomics: Design the vehicle layout with a robust focus on operator visibility, cabin ergonomics, and easy access for maintenance (e.g., battery swapping/charging, hydraulic filters).

 Design Validation &
- Clearance: Conduct digital DMU reviews, tolerance stack-up analysis, and clearance checks; lead the physical prototype assembly to catch and resolve integration issues early.

 NPI Delivery: Drive the integration cycle from the initial concept sketch to full-scale production readiness,



ensuring strict adherence to project timelines and safety standards.

Requirements

 Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Automobile Engineering, or a related technical field.

 Industry Experience: Minimum 8 years of core experience in the Construction

Equipment (CE) space (Excavators, Wheel Loaders, or Backhoes is a must).

 Expert CAD Packaging: Advanced proficiency in high-end 3D CAD software (Creo

Parametric/Teamcenter preferred) for complex assemblies, sheet metal, and routing modules.

 Technical Knowledge: Deep understanding of heavy machinery structural frames,

counterweight balancing, vehicle dynamics, and thermal management layouts.

 EV Familiarity: Understanding of high-voltage safety clearances and clearance requirements around battery enclosures is highly desirable.

 Soft Skills: Strong cross-functional leadership, exceptional spatial visualization, and a problem-solving mindset to resolve engineering conflicts between teams.
