What You Will Do
• Lead the plastics design, and optimization of key components such as body panels
battery compartment and seat systems for electric motorbikes.
• Utilize advanced simulation tools (e.g., FEA) to conduct structural analysis and
ensure designs meet stringent performance and safety standards.
• Innovate lightweight yet robust structural solutions that improve vehicle
performance and eXiciency.
• Lead design of panel mounting strategies, panel gaps and sealing strategies to
ensure cohesive industrial design and function.
• Oversee the prototyping and validation of components, ensuring that prototypes are
built to specification and tested rigorously.
• Work closely with design, manufacturing, and quality teams to ensure seamless
integration of plastic and stamped components into the overall vehicle design.
• Coordinate with suppliers and manufacturing partners to optimize design for
manufacturability (DFM), design for assembly (DFA), and design for service (DFS),
and ensure scalability in production.
• Ensure all designs comply with relevant industry standards and regulations,
particularly those related to vehicle safety.
• Maintain detailed documentation of design processes, analysis results, and testing
outcomes to support design validation and manufacturing.

What You Bring

electric vehicle, or motorbike industries.
• Proven track record of leading the design and development of bodyworks and
plastic functional components for high-quality vehicles.
• Experience in designing for tough road environments, with a focus on durability and
longevity in challenging conditions.
• Experience designing for highly cost-sensitive products.
• Proficiency in CAD and CAE tools (e.g., SolidWorks, CATIA, ANSYS) for design and
manufacturability analysis such as draft angles, surface quality and mold flow.
• Strong materials experience in choosing appropriate materials for specific
applications.
• Color, Trim and Graphics (CTG) experience as it relates to executing plastic
components to meet the vision of the Industrial design team.

• Experience with water sealing and executing moving components such as doors,
covers and hatches.
• Strong leadership skills with experience in guiding cross-functional teams.
• Excellent project management skills, with a history of delivering complex
engineering projects on time and within budget.
• Ability to eXectively communicate technical concepts and collaborate across
multiple teams, both internally and with external partners.
• Strong documentation skills, with an emphasis on maintaining clear and detailed
records of design processes and decisions.
• A deep passion for electric vehicles and sustainable transportation solutions.
• A commitment to innovation and excellence in bodyworks engineering, with a focus
on creating products that make a real-world impact.
