Plant Issue Resolution Engineer - Body & Closure Systems

We are reimagining personal transportation from the ground up. As a Plant Issue Resolution Engineer, you will play a critical role in ensuring the quality and build readiness of our autonomous vehicles during manufacturing. You will operate at the intersection of engineering and production, driving rapid containment and resolution of issues identified during general assembly and end-of-line validation. This role requires strong technical depth, urgency in execution, and the ability to lead cross-functional teams to root cause and implement durable corrective actions. You will partner closely with Vehicle Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, Supplier Quality, and Operations to ensure vehicles meet quality standards and production targets. Your work will directly impact vehicle readiness, production efficiency, and overall fleet reliability.

• B.S. or M.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering or related technical field
• 6-8 years of experience in automotive OEMs, robotics, aviation, or other complex hardware systems within manufacturing, product engineering, or sustaining environments
• Strong understanding of vehicle systems, including door systems, latches, actuators, sealing, access panels, glazing, and body structures
• Proven experience leading root cause analysis and corrective actions in production, manufacturing, or field environments, including new product launch support
• Strong cross-functional communication and problem-solving skills with the ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced environment
• Prior work experience at client or in client's Industry

Applicants must be able to work directly for Artech on W2

• Experience with Design for Manufacturing (DFM), production process optimization, Lean, Six Sigma, or similar continuous improvement methodologies
• Experience in autonomous vehicles, robotics, or EV systems
• Familiarity with tools such as 3DX (Dassault), DELMIA, SAP ME/MII, JIRA, Confluence, SQL, Python, or data visualization tools

• Lead triage, containment, and resolution plan of issues identified during general assembly and end-of-line testing across door systems, latches, actuators, sealing, access panels, glazing, and body structures
• Define and execute short-term containment actions, including rework plans, part quarantine, and build flow protection
• Collaborate cross-functionally to lead root cause analysis across design, process, supplier, and manufacturing domains, identify and prioritize blockers, and drive Design for Manufacturing (DFM) improvements
• Support cross-functional teams to implement permanent corrective actions (PCA) and prevent recurrence
• Support prototype builds, production trials, and engineering changes to validate fixes and improve manufacturability
• Develop and maintain metrics, dashboards, and reporting to track issue health, closure rates, and recurrence and improve PIRT processes, including issue tracking, prioritization, and cross-functional execution
