Description

We are seeking a detail-oriented Netcom’s Engineer to own the critical configuration and delivery of the Vehicle Specific Configuration Specification (VSCS) to Vehicle Operations Manufacturing Engineering (VOME). While this role is not directly based on the physical manufacturing floor, your technical expertise is the vital foundation upon which our plant-floor execution relies. You will need a deep, fundamental understanding of how the VSCS and the electronic Customer Acceptance Test System (eCATS) operate within the plant environment to ensure your data configurations are flawless. The Excel deliverables you manage directly dictate how vehicles are flashed and configured at the end of the line. Because a single data mismatch can halt production or lead to incorrect software deployment, your precision in configuring these network communication files has a direct, high-stakes correlation to first time through vehicle quality. To excel in this role, you must possess outstanding intercommunication skills and the agility to thrive in a flexible work environment. You will serve as a key liaison between product development and VOME, translating complex vehicle software requirements into structured database deliverables. Manufacturing and launch timelines are fluid, meaning you must remain highly adaptable and ready to support our plant stakeholders when issues arise. When a configuration anomaly impacts the plant, you will need to quickly understand the stakeholders' immediate needs, communicate technical solutions clearly, and work flexibly to resolve the issue. If you are a methodical engineer who enjoys bridging the gap between product design and manufacturing readiness while maintaining a strong customer-service mindset for our plant partners, we look forward to your application!
