Description

Own the technical roadmap and product delivery for door and closure systems, including mechanisms, structures, latches, seals, actuators, sensors, interfaces, electronics, and software.
Translate vehicle-level requirements into system requirements, architectures, design decisions, verification plans, and acceptance criteria.
Lead mechanism design and integration, including kinematics, actuator selection, latch and hinge integration, packaging, tolerances, and interfaces.
Align mechanical, electrical, software, systems, product, safety, validation, manufacturing, quality, design, and operations teams.
Coordinate technical work with engineering, manufacturing, and supplier partners across Japan, the United States, and Europe.
Lead prototype builds, vehicle integration, durability testing, root-cause investigations, design iterations, and production-readiness activities.
Address manufacturing, assembly, service, quality, reliability, and cost considerations through design-for-manufacturability and design-for-assembly practices.
Establish processes for requirements management, issue tracking, design reviews, change management, documentation, and technical decisions.

Requirements

Significant experience developing automotive closures or complex mechanical and electromechanical systems through multiple product-development stages; sliding-door experience is highly valuable.
Strong knowledge of mechanism design, kinematics, actuators, latches, hinges, seals, tolerance management, design verification, and reliability.
Experience taking a closure system or complex mechanism from concept through sourcing, validation, production, and launch.
Experience collaborating with suppliers, manufacturing partners, and cross-functional teams in automotive, mobility, robotics, aerospace, or similar complex-product environments.
Working knowledge of design for manufacturability, design for assembly, GD&T, tolerance analysis, FMEA, and quality-planning methods.
Experience with CATIA, 3DX, or comparable CAD and PLM tools, including at least DMU-level proficiency.
Experience using CAE tools for product development is preferred.
Strong communication, organization, judgment, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to work independently in an ambiguous, rapidly changing international environment.
Professional fluency in English; Japanese language skills are preferred.
Willingness and ability to travel internationally, including extended collaboration or assignments in Japan and the United States.
