• Complete feasibility studies for upcoming/proposed vehicle programs, evaluating potential design alternatives, recommending program direction based on cost, mass, timing and customer needs
• Facilitate ATW insertion and support design-tool development and rollout  
• Drive collaboration between Chassis Designing Engineers, ETL, TSs, as well as other key areas of the organization (CAE, Vehicle Architecture, Cost Estimating, Performance Integration, Manufacturing, Service Engineering, Body, HVAC, Powertrain, etc.) to creatively and jointly develop the optimal overall vehicle solution
• Support downstream release community by ensuring design maturity at program transition and providing sourcing inputs while delivering systems prepared for development, validation and production
• Attend Brake Systems ETL meetings as AVD representative 
• Translate lessons learned into best practices
• Complete the technical mentoring of other less experienced AVD DEs, and support technical training plans for new-hires in the AVD Brake Community
• Support/Lead peer reviews and supplier technical reviews
