We are backed by marquee international investors - these are mobility focused funds backed by Yamaha Motors, Al-Futtaim Automotive Group, Toyota VC and Maniv Mobility.

Key Responsibilities :

• Over all 3 to 5 years of working experience as Reliability Engineer.
• Familiar with reliability spec (ISO, IEC, MIL Std etc.)
• Determine reliability requirements of components and systems to achieve company targets. Recommend experiment designs or test methods, prepare samples and reliability test plans and own data collection, analysis & reporting.
• Requires extensive experience in testing of components, performing statistical analysis of the experimental data, and presenting status updates and reports.
• Recommend new design fixtures and follow up with suppliers to secure the test setup within the deadlines.
• Develop failure modes and effects analysis and fault tree analysis. Advice design engineering on selection, application and test of mechanical, electrical, electronic and electro-mechanical parts & systems.
• Develop standard methods, training and methodologies and ensure implementation within organization for competence development, share lessons learnt and develop best practice guidelines.
• Participate in the product design process to understand product features, functions and life cycle events to plan for reliability assessment along with FMEA knowledge.
• Perform FMEA with the design team to help and create a robust design.
• Create a mathematical model for product reliability calculations based on the features/ specifications of mechanical/electrical components.
