  • Evaluate structural designs, seating geometry, ingress/egress, and control interfaces for ergonomic comfort and safety performance.
  • Create and interpret digital human models and crash simulations using DHM and CAE tools to predict reach, vision, posture, injury metrics, and structural integrity.
  • Conduct physical and virtual evaluations using anthropometric subjects and ATDs (crash dummies) to validate ergonomic comfort and safety under various scenarios.
  • Translate test results and user feedback into actionable improvements for seat design, restraint systems, HMI layout, and safety components.
  • Define and maintain compliance guidelines based on ergonomic standards (SAE, ISO) and safety regulations (FMVSS, Euro NCAP, IIHS).
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including interior design, HMI, vehicle architecture, and structural engineering, to embed human-centered and safety-first principles in the vehicle platform.
  • Ergonomic and safety evaluation reports with integrated design recommendations.
  • Digital and physical mock-ups for ergonomic and crash validation.
  • Validation documents on occupant comfort, usability, injury metrics, and crash performance.
  • Guidelines for adjustability (seating, controls) and system integration (restraints, airbags, HMI).
  • Technical documents for compliance, certification, and design reviews.
