About the Role
As an Advanced Engineer in Prototyping for Seat Belt & Airbag Products you will lead and execute prototype development activities that ensure safety, manufacturability and compliance with customer and regulatory requirements. The role combines hands-on engineering, cross-functional coordination and technical leadership to deliver prototype assemblies, validate performance, and enable smooth transfer to production.
Key Responsibilities
Prototype Development & Engineering
• Lead design-for-prototype activities for seat belt and airbag components, including mounting hardware, pretensioners and associated sub-assemblies.

• Create and maintain prototype build plans, bill of materials and manufacturing instructions.

• Develop fixtures, jigs and tooling required for prototype assembly and test.

• Perform hands-on assembly, bench testing and functional verification of prototypes.

Testing, Validation & Compliance
• Plan and execute component and system-level tests to validate performance, durability and safety requirements.

• Document test results,



non-conformances and corrective actions; support root cause analysis and countermeasure implementation.

• Ensure prototypes meet customer specifications and regulatory standards; prepare evidence for design reviews and audits.

Cross‑Functional Collaboration
• Work closely with design engineers, product development, quality, manufacturing and purchasing to resolve issues and ensure prototype readiness.

• Coordinate with suppliers for prototype parts, short-run fabrication and validation samples.

• Support customer prototype reviews and in office demonstrations as required.

Process Improvement & Transfer to Production
• Identify manufacturability and assembly improvements during prototyping and feed back recommendations to design and process teams.

• Develop and validate standard operating procedures (SOPs) and work instructions to enable reliable transfer from prototype to pilot and production runs.
