- Design and develop gear trains for EV reducers, e-axles, and hybrid transmission systems (SHEV)
- Conduct gear sizing, ratio selection, strength calculations, and micro-geometry optimization
- Develop transmission concepts considering efficiency, NVH, packaging, durability, and manufacturability
- Perform detailed design of helical gear, differential gear sets, bevel gears, splines
- Knowledge on Gear testing like Single flank, dual flank tester, EOL NVH limit setting.
- Worked closely with CAE teams for FEA, Mechanical, and durability evaluations.
- Understanding of: Bearings, Shafts, oil seals, lubrication systems
- Strong understanding of Gear theory and design fundamentals , Gear manufacturing processes , Heat treatment methods , Transmission layouts and architectures, Transmission NVH
- Create and optimize designs for Gear, shafts and casting component using NX 3D CAD software.
- Develop detailed 3D models and 2D drawings, ensuring compliance with industry standards and customer requirements.
- Conduct feasibility studies, design calculations, and tolerance stack-up analysis to ensure manufacturability and performance.
- Support product development from initial design through prototyping, testing, and mass production.
- Perform gear design calculations in accordance with: ISO 6336, AGMA standards, DIN standards.
- Gear strength analysis, contact stress analysis, Bending fatigue analysis, Scuffing and micro-pitting assessments
- Support NVH optimization through gear micro-geometry modifications and tolerance stack-up analysis.
- Hands on experience with gear design software such as: KISSsoft & KISSsys, Romax
- Interpret simulation results and recommend design improvements.
