• New product introduction to the assembly plant ahead of the program timelines defined at the corporate level by aligning design engineering, manufacturing engineering, supply chain and supplier strategies.• Coordinated multiple workshops at the plant to define clear objectives, processes and scope of each area, to create a collaborative environment with the assembly team, and reduce the number of issues found during the assembly process to reach similar level of defects per truck as the current product.• Documented 100% of engineering issues found in a build round, and facilitated daily containment issues meetings with mechatronics, cab engineering and chassis engineering to define immediate containment actions and clean points, to prevent future issues.• Lead weekly call with engineering groups to define long term corrective actions and added those working plans to main timeline.• Reduced the time to contain to 24 hrs or less, by reviewing the open issues and identifying areas for improvement, and working with engineering managers to implement the changes.•Conducted weekly meetings at the plant level to inform progress and identify support needed from each area to remove blockers, with the main objective to maintain all departments well informed and fully aligned to immediate targets and long term goals.• Technical lead on pilot trucks or customer visits, enhance of collaboration with maintenance fleet mangers and national service managers to hear customer demands, then use that information and inform design engineering groups to full fill customer´s expectations, then coordinate the implementation at the plant and inform clean points to our customers though the Quality assurance department or service organization.

Provide technical solutions to engineering related problems during the assembly process and document the root cause to prevent the same problem happens again. Provide support and be part of the pilot reviews when customers come to the plant to review their trucks, then working with sales, customer engineering applications (CAE), design engineering, quality and production to assure the spec reflects what the customer is requesting. Follow up on warranty claims and customer complaints for all items regarding engineering problems and work closely with design engineering to find the root cause.
