In Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments, combining exceptional range, performance, design, and expansive space in a single experience. We achieve this through deep vertical integration, with design, engineering, and production happening in-house across our global offices and manufacturing facilities. Our teams come from industries around the world, united by a shared commitment to excellence. By refusing to settle, you can help redefine what’s possible and shape the future of mobility. Position Overview: The Senior Engineer, Steering & Brake Systems provides technical leadership and hands-on engineering support for steering and brake systems throughout vehicle launch, production ramp-up, and series manufacturing. This role serves as the primary plant engineering focal point for steering gear, steering columns, intermediate shafts, tie rods, brake calipers, rotors, hoses, brake controls, parking brake components, and related chassis system interfaces. The engineer works closely with Design Engineering, CAE, Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, Supplier Quality, Purchasing, and Plant Operations to ensure vehicle quality, safety, functional performance, durability, NVH behavior, and manufacturing efficiency. The role is critical for rapid production issue resolution, launch support, and continuous improvement. Responsible for sustaining engineering after initial product launch. This includes design and release of new parts as required such as to improve quality or the assembly process. Working with core engineering to ensure parts meet all design and validation requirements. Key Responsibilities: Production Support & Issue Resolution - Serve as the plant technical expert for steering and brake components, assemblies, interfaces, and production build concerns. - Investigate and resolve vehicle build, fit-up, functional, dimensional, noise, vibration, leakage, durability, and quality concerns. - Lead root cause analysis for manufacturing, supplier, validation, and field issues. - Implement containment actions and drive permanent corrective actions. - Support daily production meetings and manufacturing escalations; minimize downtime related to steering and brake system issues. Launch & Program Support - Support prototype, DV, PV, and production vehicle builds. - Coordinate engineering change releases and plant implementation plans. - Track launch issues and ensure timely closure. - Support vehicle build events, launch reviews, production readiness reviews, and validation sign-off activities. Manufacturing, Assembly & End-of-Line Support - Support assembly robustness for steering and brake system installation, torque strategy, routing, clearances, bleeding, calibration, and end-of-line verification. - Investigate stack-up, tolerance, alignment, packaging, and interface issues. - Collaborate with Manufacturing Engineering and Quality to improve process capability and reduce rework and scrap. - Support implementation of poka-yoke, process controls, and standardized troubleshooting methods. System Performance, Supplier Quality & Continuous Improvement - Interface directly with steering and brake system suppliers on production, quality, dimensional, durability, and functional concerns. - Lead technical reviews and support supplier containment and corrective action implementation. - Participate in supplier audits, launch readiness reviews, and ongoing quality improvement activities. - Partner with Steering Design Engineering, Brake Systems Engineering, Quality Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Supplier Quality, and Plant Operations. - Develop predictive quality monitoring strategies using production, warranty, and issue tracking data. Sustaining Engineering - Responsible for the design and development of automative chassis components and assemblies to deliver the highest level of performance in NVH, Durability, and Manufacturability while optimizing cost. - Work closely with other stake owners and attribute owners across the company such as Core engineering. Vehicle Safety, Vehicle Dynamics, NVH, Durability, Manufacturing, Design Studio, etc. - Cross functionally works with Manufacturing, Design and Product Development as well as with Purchasing, Supplier Quality, and Suppliers on items such as tool buy-offs and secondary component changes. &n
