Job-2 

Principle Engineer / Technologist / Scientist: Human Machine Interface EV/BEV - Cape Town, South Africa


2. Reporting to : Manager: Vehicle Engineering 

3. Job purpose : 

To organise, drive and technically lead the Human Machine Interface (HMI) subject to maturity at the Start of Production (SoP). This responsibility defines the interface concept between the user and the vehicle, which includes the definition of any interaction or information exchange. It therefore has an impact on every system with a user interface. 

4. Summary of Duties : (Principal accountabilities and Activities) 

a. To develop the user operation concept of the vehicle, including: 
i. Touch, Appearance, Lighting & Coordination (TALC). 
ii. Definition of the instrument panel, central display / radio functionality and content. 
b. To integrate the exchange of information in a self-explanatory intuitive manner (maximised simplification): 
i. What information (status, confirmation, alarm ...)? 
ii. How (chime, light, display, symbols, analogue, digital ...)? 
iii. When (at start-up, when requested, continuous ...)? 
c. To manage the development of the User Manual. 

5. Knowledge and experience: 

a. Technical / Scientific qualification with at least 10 years relevant experience. 
b. Ability to integrate requirements from marketing, styling, interior design and electric vehicle operation in a constructive manner. 
c. Ability to identify, coordinate and manage the contributors to the HMI subject. 
d. Ability to communicate and represent the HMI subject to the Project Manager. 
e. Ability to solve technical and organisational conflicts within the HMI subject.

Job-3 


Principle Engineer / Scientist: Noise, Vibration & Harshness EV/BEV - Cape Town, South Africa


2. Reporting to : Manager: Vehicle Engineering 

3. Job purpose : 

To organise, drive and technically lead the Noise, Vibration & Harshness (NVH) subject to maturity at the Start of Production (SoP). This responsibility defines the NVH targets and ensures that the vehicle meets the required NVH levels. 

4. Summary of Duties : (Principal accountabilities and Activities) 

a. To define the NVH strategy through: 
i. The allocation of the NVH targets to vehicle systems. 
ii. The management of the development timeline. 
b. To develop the NVH analysis model including: 
i. The power train stressing and body / chassis bending. 
ii. The verification of the modelling through the necessary NVH / acoustic measurements. 
c. To mature the vehicle development by confirming the acceptability of the sound (noise) experienced from a customer viewpoint (inside and outside) under all driving conditions. 

5. Knowledge and experience: 

a. Technical / Scientific qualification with at least 10 years relevant experience. 
b. Ability to identify, coordinate and manage the contributors to the HVH subject. 
c. Ability to communicate and represent the HVH subject to the Project Manager. 
d. Ability to solve technical and organisational conflicts within the HVH subject.
