Responsibilities:
Specification development:
1)	Review customer requirement and specification.
2)	Summarizes and clarifies customer specification, requirement, issues and outcome with customer and internal use.
3)	Develop product specification together with KAM/customers and work on design and provides schedules. 
4)	Ensures that customer parameter brief (CPB) in 1213 data is complete be updated to date. ( Use as core tool)
CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT, CAD DESIGN, DRAWING CREATION (design work with goal to meet customer and Southco specifications):
1.	- Designs (CAD) and creates concepts and production parts towards customer and internal specification considering program goals in the area of cost, quality and time lines (from initial acquisition to formal program to launch)
2.	- Ensures DFMEA/TA/DFA and DFM (esp. Die casting, Stamping and injection molding processes) are integrated in product design (in conjunction with NPD and  manufacturing engineering support).
3.	- Creates designs in NX-Unigraphics towards the required customer CAD standards.
4.	- Creates component, assembly and trade drawings for internal and external use using GD&T, SC (special characteristics) and other tools for identifying customer and Southco requirement.
5.	- Carries out product improvements (CAD design) towards internal and external requirements (i.e. specification change request)
6.	- Makes complete tolerance analysis on all interfering features (sub assembly and customers application)
7.	- Take responsibility of  Project Management for modification project in initial technical feasibility studies, design concept presentation and cost estimate activites and working very close with NPD team in product development cycles.  Also work with Project Manager/Sales team from  initial concept development during project/program acquisition and RFQ processes
TECHNICAL PROGRAM MANAGEMENT (Southco-customer-supplier), incl. quality documentation and considering goals for cost, quality and time lines:
8.	- support project manager and participate project meetings (technical aspects) to ensure program requirements are met, initiate team tasks (i.e. preparation of cost estimates, testing, quality tasks…) in regards to program needs
9.	- Organizes leads and manages Design FMEA activities. Ensures that D-FMEA is up-to-date throughout the program
10.	- Creates test plans on basis of customer and Southco requirements and supports product evaluation department to achieve results in a timely manner to the quality level required. Ensures that program/project requirements are met with designed product. Communicates design issues to Engineering management team.
11.	- Supports manufacturing engineering on technical issues (product specification, i.e. material selection, etc.), tooling requirements and vendor support.
12.	- Provides supply chain management team with relevant technical data so that sourcing procedures (RFQ) can be executed and successfully finished. Ensures that product and program specification changes are reported in time.
13.	- Supports supply chain management group and manufacturing engineers in technical review meeting with supply base (i.e. design and process reviews) 
14.	- Ensures that product development process follows PRO-04 requirements. Maintains PRO-04 documentation when required. Manages/maintains/supports required technical customer documentation (as per customer specification).
TECHNICAL CUSTOMER INTERACTION (engineer-to-engineer relationship):
15.	- Visits appropriate customer engineers to check the project status in regards of the program/project  requirements  (application/product specification, cost - if applicable, quality, time lines)
16.	- Support Southco and customer thru required changes
LAUNCH AND AFTER LAUNCH SUPPORT:
17.	- Supports manufacturing, quality engineers in completing PPAP documentation
18.	- Ensures that prototype, pre-production and production (initial) build dates and requirements are met towards expected quality goals and time lines
DESIGN REVIEWS / KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER (Across SBU design teams):
19.	- Coaches new or younger team members to get them to the next level (technical aspects) to ensure they acquire basic Southco best practices in design & development of mods & custom products
20.	- Attend internal design reviews. Check documentations & designs are to the correct quality standards such as D-FMEA, drawings, tolerance analysis, test plan and are in line with customer specifications.
21.	Supports Senior Engineering or Supervisor and Project Managers on technical issues   

Requirements: 
1.Chartered Engineer required or equivalent	
2.Work permit / passport which allows work and travel in desired country/countries.
3.Fluent in English and Chinese. Ideally another AP language, preferred.
