WHO WE ARE:
Ford Motor Company was built on the belief that freedom of movement drives human progress. It’s a belief that has always fueled our passion to create great cars and trucks. And today, it drives our commitment to become the world’s most trusted mobility company, designing vehicles or a smart world that help people move more safely, confidently and freely. To do this, we are investing in technology, and businesses focusing on micro-transit, commercial solutions for fleet customers, enhancing the vehicle ownership experience and developing the Transportation Mobility Cloud, which will host mobility-related solutions.
- THE ROLE:
As a steering engineer for Ford of Mexico you will interact with counterparts in Ford North America, and Ford of Europe, the main responsabilities and roles the engineer will fulfill are:
- The role requires the engineer to design, validate, launch and mantain steering components (RV gear, Lines, Steering Columns, Steering gears, etc.).
- The position will require the engineer to understand DTC’s (Diagnostic Trouble Codes), log information using the CAN/BUS and use this information to propperly diagnose problems within the systems or vechicles.
- The engineer will be capable of defining failure modes, root causes, and use tools (CAE, bench, HIL, etc.) to define the solution best suited for each condition.
- The engineer will monitor warranties for steering components, and work through design processes to solve and prevent recurrence of similar warranties.
- The engineer will identify cost opportunities within his/her components and will deliver a more efficient solution. The full design process will be required (design, validate, improve and implement) and no attributes will be affected by the new design.
- The engineer will interface with suppliers, plants, purchasing. She/he will evaluate/validate the impact of changes in design, production process, resourcing, layout, and interactions with other systems.
