Validation, APQP & launch

·       Lead equipment/process validation, MSA and calibration, capability, run-at-rate and PPAP evidence within applicable IATF/APQP expectations.

·       Set first-off-tool, pilot, safe-launch and release-to-production criteria; govern deviation and action closure.

Yield, quality & cost

·       Own FPY/Cpk/yield/scrap roadmap; use SPC, DoE and structured problem solving on chronic losses.

·       Drive cycle-time, labor, material and warranty-risk reduction while protecting process capability and safety.

·       Own manufacturing-related warranty claims and field issues and implement timely PCA, and work cross-functionally to close all field issues.

Technical leadership & NPI

·       Mentor engineers/technicians to enable technical-leadership across DU operations.

·       Chair technical reviews and resolve cross-functional process risks.

·       Lead manufacturing readiness for variants, design changes, localization and future programs.

·       Interfaces with Production, Quality, Maintenance, Automation/Robotics, Manufacturing Engineering, EHS, Supply Chain, IT/OT, HR/L&D and equipment suppliers as applicable.

·       Skills-matrix, OJT, progression, cross-training and Saudi national capability transfer

·       Data and documentation accuracy, audit readiness and disciplined handover and sign-off

Enterprise, launch & workforce expectations

·       Safety: LOTO, guarding, interlocks, HV controls.

·       Quality: protect product conformity, traceability and calibrated-tool discipline; contain abnormalities and preserve objective evidence.

·       Delivery: support stable flow, takt/cycle achievement and rapid, structured escalation of constraints.

·       Cost: reduce scrap, rework, downtime, energy and consumable losses through data-based countermeasures.

·       People: build Saudi national capability through coaching, cross-training, ILU progression and knowledge transfer.

·       Continuous improvement: participate and lead tier meetings, 5S, Kaizen, QRQC and closed-loop corrective action.

Saudization & Capability

·       Build Saudi national capabilities and mentor Saudi national engineers/technicians in discipline-specific skills and structured problem-solving

·       Develop training materials, competency matrices, and OJT plans

Skills

·       Deep E-motor/gearbox manufacturing knowledge

·       PFMEA, Control Plan, PPAP, and SPC mastery under IATF 16949

·       Strong thermal, environmental, and dry-room process knowledge

·       Leadership, passion for building new industry and for developing people

·       Technical standards, structured problem solving, risk-based decision making and controlled documentation

·       Data literacy: KPI definition, trend analysis, evidence-based validation and clear executive/shop-floor communication

·       Cross-functional influence, supplier coordination and disciplined ownership in a greenfield launch environment

·       Coaching, competency assessment and knowledge transfer in a multicultural English/Arabic workplace

Minimum Qualifications

·       Bachelor’s in mechanical, electrical, mechatronics or manufacturing engineering; Master’s in Engineering highly preferred

·       8+ years in advanced automotive/EV manufacturing with 5+ years in senior DU/traction-motor process roles

·       Strong IATF/APQP and greenfield-launch record

·       English fluency; Arabic preferred

·       Preferred: Six Sigma Black Belt and digital-manufacturing expertise

·       TPM/Autonomous Maintenance and Lean problem-solving methods

·       Experience developing local technical talent in a multicultural workforce

·       Must be able to work around automated equipment and, where authorized, high-voltage Powertrain products.
