Accelerated life testing of Tier4 interim engines to detect any inherent design flaws that affect reliability growth. This requires the use of test procedures that stress the potential failure modes. Systematic evaluation of product risk using FMEA tools to minimize potential risk factors; ensuring intended design fulfill stakeholders' requirements.

Project management, planning, leading and supporting the timely delivery of project objectives using Ford product development tools (GPDS, eFDVS, WERS). Ensuring that all project milestone requirements taking into account budget and gateway constraints are fulfilled. Resolution of all powertrain issues, i.e. WERS, DPA and provide leadership at related vehicle team meetings.

 Implementation of an the DV plans for LION and PUMA Global diesel engines, development of the DV growth curves and status from an established plan. Resolution of to test cell/engine issues as they arise. Ensuring engines are scheduled in a timely manner meeting customer’s expectation.

Minimizing engine tail pipe and noise emissions during cold start, with the help of advanced optimisation techniques.
