Volkswagen Automatic Transmission (Tianjin) Co., Ltd. (“VWATJ”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Volkswagen Group, is the largest green-field transmission producer of the VW Group in China. Across two plants, we produce premium quality Double-clutch Gearbox (DSG) transmissions, hybrid transmissions and e-drives. Job Title: TDT | Competitor Analysis 4 Division/Department: Technical Development Department Location: Tianjin Your Responsibilities: * Analysis and report: Responsible for investigating and researching competitor and supplier information regarding emerging technologies and market trends with a focus on Technical Development (VWATJ TD) products. Using: Patent research, competitor database research, exhibitions, trade shows, forums, supplier visits, institutes, universities, ...). * Maintenance of knowledge database/sharing: Responsible for the preparation of the final analysis report (with the support of the experts/BTVs). * Responsible for data storage of competitor analysis results and communication/exchange between internal and external project interfaces. Based on all findings, conclusions are to be drawn on the impact on system interconnect, component sizing, lifetime, efficiency, thermal performance, etc.. In addition, all the findings will be used to classify the product in specially prepared benchmark studies and to determine how the product compares directly with the market (e.g. "best-in-class", average). * Project Planning/Control: Responsible for the development of the resulting schedule including the tracking of the individual work and task packages. Responsible for the procurement or organization of the analysis parts, components as well as work equipment (including all necessary steps, e.g. BM, logistics, ...). * Support of the (test bench) measurement of competitor components and its subsequent comparison with the analysis data/simulation models. Responsible for the organization and control of the disassembly, which are related to the analysis. Including disassembly, evaluation, photography as well as documentation of the complete analysis (with support of the experts/BTVs within the technical development department and our laboratory). * Reconciliation and collection: Responsible for the coordination with internal and external partners (e.g. VCIC Beijing, VW Anhui, ...) about the desired scope of analysis. Additional intensive coordination with internal computation departments to understand and determine the overall multi-physical system topology (consisting of battery/inverter/motor/transmission/cooling) by means of a "systematic-inverse-approach". The structure and functioning of the (sub-) components are to be understood and their interactions analyzed. All characteristic parameters of all components are to be recorded and processed (these are subsequently used for the digital modeling of the system behavior "digital twin"). * Technical evaluation and reverse engineering: In charge of inferring the design fundamentals from the analyzed competitive parts. This includes statements about service life design, strength, fatigue strength, temperature resistance, electrical design criteria, schematics, technical design of electrical machines, gearboxes, etc. Your Qualification: * Education: Bachelor Degree or above (or comparable degree in major) major in
