Assist Engineering teams in cross functional activities from Order to delivery of test objects. Gather the engineering specifications of test objects within the project scope for all purposes. Create project build plan and document testing needs. Create and manage engineering project plan and timeline for the physical test objects. Assist Product Build project teams, informing members of delivery timeframes. Ensure specification and ordering of test objects is completed. Create variant and BOM reviews according to detailed time plan together with stakeholders. Based on engineering team input, create a correct Bill Of Material (BOM) for all test objects needed. Manage and coordinate the engineering build of prototype electric vehicles powered by battery-based propulsion systems. Projects support validation of vehicle architecture, electrical systems, and integration of new EV components prior to production release. Manage prototype builds of combustion-engine trucks equipped with autonomous driving technologies. These projects support the development, testing, and validation of autonomous systems, including sensor integration, control systems, and vehicle-level functionality. Lead engineering build activities to implement physical vehicle modifications for production vehicles in response to new customer requirements or performance expectations. These projects ensure engineering changes are correctly built, validated, and documented. Apply formal project management processes including scope definition, scheduling, cost control, risk management, and cross-functional coordination to deliver engineering prototype builds and vehicle modifications. Utilize engineering and enterprise systems including SAP, Windows-based engineering tools, Creo View, and internally developed systems such as Protom and Ghost to manage bills of material, workflows, documentation, and build execution. The “test objects” are prototype commercial vehicles (trucks) that are designed and physically built for engineering validation and testing purposes. These prototype trucks are not production vehicles; they are development units used to evaluate and validate new vehicle technologies prior to production release. The test objects are built to support testing and development of: Fully electric truck platforms, including battery systems, electric powertrains, and vehicle integration; Autonomous driving trucks, including sensors, control units, and vehicle-level system integration; Active and passive vehicle safety systems, such as driver-assistance functions, structural safety components, and restraint systems
