• Lead electrical troubleshooting efforts for the plant and launch team, focusing on top-hitting EFTQ issues through Red X statistical problem solving and strategy-based diagnostics.
• Create actionable items from electrical failures to enable issue documentation, follow-up, and resolution.
• Lead corrective action plans and track actions through completion.
• Support the plant’s EFTQ performance during steady-state production and achievement of the EFTQ glidepath during vehicle program launch.
• Collect, analyze, and communicate electrical failure data, repair trends, and process information to identify recurring issues and improvement opportunities.
• Lead the disconnect workshop during launch to develop the database for repair faults and knowledge-based repair systems in GSIP.
• Serve as the key contact for Final Process Repairmen regarding training, vehicle troubleshooting, repair root-cause entry into GSIP, Service Information schematics, plant repair diagnostic tools GDS2/MDI, and applicable reporting systems.
• Support Final Process Repairmen with training, troubleshooting vehicle issues, repair root-cause entry into GSIP, Service Information schematics, plant repair diagnostic tools, and reporting systems.
• Coordinate training for Repairmen on service diagnostic tools through Raytheon, VERTEX, or the applicable company.
• Coordinate training on new-model features and service diagnostic tools during vehicle program launch.
• Conduct training on vehicle electrical systems for Team Leaders so they can effectively support their Team Members.
• Complete required training at various GM sites and supplier locations. Travel is required for this role.
