As a member within the vehicle interiors engineering team, I was responsible for the design development of sub-systems within the driver cab area for the Arrival Bus, from vehicle integration, mechanical engineering design and project management standpoints.
This involved collaboration with cross-functional stakeholders for concept generation, design development, prototype build and verification & validation activities, and liaising with tier-1 suppliers on project engineering and resolution of technical issues.
Result:
- Took 16 sub-systems from an early-stage prototype stage to a production-ready, hard-tooled stage
- Introduced BOM cost-saves with cross-platform component commonisation and manufacturing optimisations
- De-risked sub-systems through test and verification processes
