Expected activity, deliverables, accountability

Design & Planning:

Translate product requirements into a high-level motorcycle concept and detailed specifications across different engineering streams.
Define timeline, milestones, and deliverables for all streams (entire assembly, sub-assembly, parts, and components).
Evaluate and analyze engineering calculations on simulation software, draft configuration settings, and assess the manufacturability of prototype design.
Key deliverables include Detailed Engineering Design (DED).
Generate styling options that are aligned with product requirements, target market segment, and brand identity

Prototyping:

Converting DED to technical drawing, creating a playbook that includes fabrication work instructions and component-level quality checking.
Create assembly and subassembly playbook
Work with procurement team to source components and raw materials
Monitor and quality checking: check if fabrication matches engineering specs.
Execute component-level quality checking, implement root-cause analysis of No-GO component, generate deviation report, and update fabrication work instructions
Assembling each component to sub-assemblies and sub-assemblies to the entire assembly
Deliver motorcycle prototype and technical specifications of motorcycle prototype
Prototype evaluation, engineering correction, and troubleshooting
Review technical specs and quality checks based on DED and technical regulations related to motorcycle systems
Designing, reviewing, and executing a series of engineering tests for reliability, manufacturability, and riding experience (dynamics, human-machine interaction, interface, etc.)
Engineering correction and troubleshooting. Review prototype evaluation and generate a report of any corrective and preventive action necessary to discuss with the product lifecycle management team
Design for production: collecting all related engineering data, playbook, and reports.
Work with the manufacturing engineering team to generate updated DED, drawings, and instructions to be used for manufacturing purposes
