• Strong understanding of tolerance stack-up analysis, GD&T, assembly processes, and structural integration.
• Experience with DFM, DFA, DFS, and manufacturability reviews.
• Ability to conduct DFMEA at part/sub-assembly level, including structural components.
• Familiarity with hydraulics, linkage systems, and tractor structural integration.
• Awareness of homologation and regulatory requirements.

Soft Skills

• Strong collaboration with internal cross-functional teams.
• Analytical problem-solving and structured decision-making skills.
• Effective communication and reporting in cross-functional and platform-level forums.
• Ability to plan, prioritize, and execute tasks to meet program milestones.

Proven exposure to aggregate integration, hydraulics & linkage systems, tractor structure, DFMEA, assembly process integration, and validation readiness leading up to SOP.
Experience in meeting program timelines and deliverables in offshore execution.

Key Responsibilities

1. Aggregate Ownership & Integration

• Lead integration of tractor aggregates: hydraulics and linkage systems (3-point hitch, lift arms, draft/position controls, stabilizers), PTO & driveline, axles, engine, transmission, tractor structure (chassis, subframes, ROPS, mounts), operator station, steering, fuel system, electricals, safety systems, and styling.
• Ensure packaging feasibility, manufacturability (DFM/DFA/DFS), ergonomics, accessibility, serviceability, and structural integrity.
• Manage system and subsystem-level targets in alignment with tractor architecture and feature roadmaps.
• Support assembly and structural integration reviews, ensuring tasks are completed on schedule.

2. Validation & DFMEA

• Understand DVP requirements at vehicle and system level.
• Conduct DFMEA at part and sub-assembly level, including structural and aggregate interactions.
• Support prototype builds, validation activities, and issue closure in line with program timelines and SOP milestones.

3. Cross-functional Coordination

• Collaborate with internal cross-functional teams (design, CAE, validation, manufacturing, service) for interface alignment and issue resolution.
• Provide technical inputs during internal platform-level reviews and program governance meetings.
• Maintain knowledge of safety, regulatory, and homologation requirements, ensuring design compliance.
• Report progress on integration tasks, structural integrity, and timelines, highlighting risks or delays.
