Responsibilities

• Develop, implement, and maintain manufacturing processes, procedures, and verification controls related to government regulatory, safety, and EV product compliance requirements.
• Partner closely with Homologation to ensure all applicable regulatory requirements are understood, documented, and translated into manufacturing, inspection, and product release requirements.
• Establish and maintain government regulatory compliance checklists by model, market, destination, product configuration, and EV-specific regulatory requirement.
• Participate in forward-model, launch, and product release readiness reviews to ensure compliance requirements are incorporated before production and customer release.
• Verify that required regulatory and certification elements are included and controlled within production processes, including certification labels, tire and loading labels, Monroney/window stickers, EPA Fuel Economy & Environment labels applicable to EVs, VIN accuracy, market-specific regulatory content, and destination/export-specific regulatory requirements.
• Support compliance readiness for EV-specific regulatory and safety elements, including high-voltage safety, electric powertrain integrity, battery-related safety controls, electrical isolation, charge-related interfaces, and emergency response information, as applicable.
• Maintain objective evidence of regulatory checks, safety process audits, release approvals, escalations, corrective actions, and verification of effectiveness.
• Coordinate and perform surveillance audits of production processes based on safety, regulatory, homologation, EV compliance, and product release risk.
• Audit and verify process controls for safety, government regulatory, and significant product/process characteristics, including critical torques, restraint-related processes, high-voltage component installation controls, battery pack and propulsion system-related controls, safety-related inspection points, bypasses, engineering deviations, delta processes, rework and repair processes, and final product release controls.
• Work with Production, Quality, Engineering, Manufacturing, and Homologation teams to ensure proper error-proofing, process controls, inspections, and reaction plans are in place for safety and government regulatory processes.
• Escalate and support containment of potential regulatory, labeling, safety, EV compliance, or product release risks.
• Create and lead cross-functional response teams when safety, regulatory, homologation, labeling, EV compliance, or product release issues are detected.
• Coordinate with responsible departments to define corrective actions, verify effectiveness, and prevent recurrence of systemic regulatory or safety compliance issues.
• Support internal audits, external audits, regulatory inquiries, quality system audits, and leadership reviews related to government regulatory, EV safety, and product compliance readiness.
• Coordinate country-specific regulatory audits, third-party inspections, and compliance verification activities.
• Travel up to 25%, occasionally on short notice.
• Act as a product release compliance gatekeeper for safety, government regulatory, and EV-specific compliance elements.
• Verify that applicable regulatory, homologation, labeling, safety, high-voltage, and critical process requirements have been implemented, checked, and documented before releasing product to the customer or market.
• Verify correct certification label installation and content.
• Verify correct tire/loading label installation and content.
• Verify correct Monroney/window sticker application.
• Verify correct EPA EV Fuel Economy & Environment label information, as applicable.
• Verify VIN and vehicle configuration accuracy.
• Verify closure of open regulatory or safety-related quality holds.
• Verify closure of applicable engineering deviations or change controls.
• Verify completion of required safety/significant characteristic checks.
• Verify completion of applicable EV safety checks related to high-voltage systems, battery-related controls, and electric powertrain integrity.
• Verify completion of required release evidence package.
