Designs mechanical suspensions for commercial vehicles across loading applications: spring selection, shock absorber damping and roll stiffness calculations, anti-roll bar design, through to PLM release.
Four openings (Suspension Design 14); one further Suspension opening is at Senior Engineer level.
Must Have Skills
Commercial vehicle mechanical suspension design (leaf spring, shock absorber, anti-roll bar)
Suspension calculations – damping force, roll stiffness, ride and handling
CATIA – solid, surface, sheet metal, casting and assembly modules
Vehicle integration, DMU and packaging
GD&T;, tolerance stack-up and DFMEA
Positive To Have Skills
FEA inputs and design iteration
DVP and IATF 16949
8D problem solving and field-failure root cause analysis
Competitor benchmarking
Roles and Responsibilities
Design vehicle suspensions for the required loading applications.
Own concept design, evaluation and finalisation of the suspension system.
Carry out suspension packaging and layout studies, spring selection and shock absorber layouts.
Calculate shock absorber damping force and finalise the shock absorber.
Calculate roll stiffness, select the anti-roll bar and finalise its design.
Provide inputs for FEA structural analysis and iterate the design to transparent it.
Meet the Quality, Cost and Delivery targets of each project.
Document project deliverables: design proposals, DFMEA, design calculations and DVP.
Work with cross-functional teams to meet DFM, DFA and DFS requirements.
Generate proposals to overcome design challenges and evaluate them on cost and complexity.
Own CAD quality at part and assembly level.
Release Bill of Material and specifications in PLM.
Prepare reports and presentations for engineering reviews.
Solve technical issues through the 8D approach and QC tools, including root cause analysis of field failures.
Identify critical-to-quality parameters and apply control parameters on drawings.
Benchmark competitor designs and submit reports.
