Systems Reliability Engineer at Ford Electric Vehicles responsible for defining reliability targets and analyzing failure modes in vehicle systems. Collaborate across teams to enhance electric vehicle innovations.
Responsibilities
Define reliability targets for different systems and subsystems by cascading top level requirements based on system complexity and architecture maturity
Develop design validation test campaign for different systems in a vehicle at different stages of development from concept to launch
Specify test resources and design accelerated test profiles for different systems and subsystems.
Lead the efforts to analyze the root causes of failures and interpret the results of SEM, XRD, optical microscopy, and other tools commonly used in forensic engineering
Work in a cross-functional environment with individuals from different teams and with different backgrounds. You will be presented with problems from very diverse disciplines of engineering (mechanical, electrical, chemical, and more). You will have the opportunity to both lead and learn
Use connected vehicle platforms to inform hardware design by generating duty cycles that are based on real-life usage data
Conduct DFMEA studies for different systems
Requirements
B.S. in Mechanical, Electrical, or Chemical Engineering, Material Science, applied Physics or Chemistry with 5+ years of relevant experience in reliability engineering, test design, and failure analysis
Advanced knowledge of reliability engineering mathematics including but not limited to: Different statistical distribution commonly used in reliability analyses and their attributes. Reliability requirement development, target allocation, cascading the reliability requirements from top level to system and subsystem levels and setting the appropriate confidence levels. Fleet data analysis: Identify appropriate target user to define mission profiles/ duty cycles. Failure vs suspension test data treatment, data censoring.
Advanced knowledge of accelerated life testing such as: Test plan development (using the outcomes of DFMEA or legacy engineering knowledge). Specify sample sizes. Determine the order of waterfall test sequences. Duty cycle/mission profile development. Develop accelerated test profiles in close collaborations with component owners
Solids understanding of physics of failure with a focus on fatigue, wear, environmental degradation (temp cycling, time at temp, UV degradation, humidity exposure, oxidation, vibration, etc.)
Familiarity and working experience with different industry standards for shock and vibe, corrosion, environmental aggressors, etc.
Ability to work with several different teams with distinct backgrounds. You will be presented with problems from very diverse disciplines of engineering (mechanical, electrical, chemical, and more)
Demonstrated track record of leading successful root cause analysis campaigns in a multi-functional environment
Demonstrated track record of finding the balance between depth and spread to optimize deliverables while operating in a face-paced environment
M.S. or Ph.D. in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering.
Automotive background/experience is highly desired, but not necessary.
Specific coursework focused on Reliability Engineering is a highly desired but not required
Experience with Microsoft Office, Confluence, and Jira applications
Experience with instrumentation and measurement of powertrain systems in a lab environment
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Software skills for fleet analysis:
o Python or similar for data analysis [Importance: High] [3+ Years]
o Cloud Computing for data processing, storage, automation: Google Cloud Platform (preferred) or similar e.g., AWS, Azure [Importance: Medium] [1+ Years]
o Familiarity with relational databases/data warehouses and SQL (query language) for querying fleet connected vehicle data [Importance: High] [2+ Years]
o Familiarity with data visualization tools like Power BI, Tableau, Looker Studio [Importance: Medium] [1+ Years]
