Engineer

Design & Development

• Assist in the design and modification of aftermarket components.
• Prepare and update engineering drawings, 3D models, and technical specifications.
• Participate in benchmarking, reverse engineering, and product teardowns.
• Support design validation activities for pistons, rings, brake pads, shocks, and chains.

2. Testing & Analysis

• Conduct component-level and system-level tests (dimensional, material, performance, durability).
• Perform failure analysis and assist in root-cause analysis (RCA).
• Prepare detailed test reports, data interpretation, and improvement recommendations.
• Coordinate with internal and external testing facilities for friction, wear, damping, hardness, and metallurgical tests.

3. Quality & Compliance

• Support APQP/PPAP documentation, FMEA updates, and process validation.
• Ensure engineering outputs meet quality and industry standards (ISI, BIS, AIS, JASO, ASTM, etc.).
• Collaborate with the Quality team to address field failures and warranty issues.

4. Supplier & Cross-Functional Coordination

• Support vendor development activities including feasibility studies and sample approval.
• Collaborate with the Purchase, Sales, and Marketing teams for technical clarifications.
• Ensure timely communication of engineering changes (ECN/ECR).

5. Documentation & Reporting

• Maintain engineering logs, drawing archives, BOMs, test records, and change history.
• Prepare technical presentations and reports for management review.
