About The Position

Stellantis is seeking an Electrical Production Execution Lead Engineer to direct and coordinate troubleshooting and repair activities for prototype and production vehicles at engineering sites, supplier sub-assembly facilities, manufacturing plants, special events, and fleet locations. The role supports launch activities at assembly plants, pilot plants, and supplier sub-assembly sites; performs repairs and customer audit testing; participates in management update meetings; investigates issues found on early prototype engineering vehicles; and coordinates interim and long-term solutions with component releasing engineers. The position brings together engineering teams from multiple disciplines to solve complex vehicle problems, provides remote and direct support to dealerships facing difficult vehicle issues, works with zone representatives supporting dealerships, and performs and documents electrical validation testing. It also supports early Process Standard (PS) and Diagnostic Definition Table (DDT) reviews, Product Assurance Team (PAT) and End-Of-Line (EOL) reviews, proves out required routines on a bench and plywood buck, and assists with plywood buck builds and troubleshooting. The role may support modular supplier EOL test development by working with Supplier Quality Assurance (SQA) and modular assemblers. This includes coordinating technical information from cross-functional engineering teams, co-leading supplier meetings, reviewing supplier test processes, documenting issues and program status for Vehicle Teams, and conducting on-site reviews through each pilot-program stage, including full Start Of Production.
