QDSL (Quintessential Design Services Limited) is an engineering and technology consultancy supporting client projects in engineering innovations, research & development, and IT. We offer engineering support in automotive, aerospace, energy, and IT.

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced One Lead Engineer and One Component D&R Engineer to design, release, and develop PTSE components, with a focus on fuel systems. You will ensure these components meet performance, safety, cost, and quality standards while managing the entire lifecycle from design through production.

• Lead the creation of detailed CAD models and engineering drawings for PTSE fuel system components (fuel tanks, pumps, injectors, fuel lines, etc.).
• Direct and approve engineering drawings for fuel system components.
• Lead root cause analysis and corrective actions for design‑related issues in fuel system components.
• Validate design through CAE simulations, prototyping, and physical testing specifically for fuel system components.
• Ensure fuel system designs comply with industry standards, regulatory requirements (EPA, CARB), and internal specifications.
• Research emerging technologies and materials to enhance fuel system performance (new fuel types, hybrid technologies).
• Drive cost reduction and weight optimisation initiatives without compromising safety, quality, or fuel efficiency.
• Contribute to design reviews and lessons‑learned sessions related to fuel system development.
• Manage the Bill of Materials (BOM) and part release processes for fuel system components using PLM systems (3
  
  Dx, Teamcenter).
• Coordinate with suppliers and manufacturing teams to ensure timely release and readiness for production of fuel system components.
• Maintain documentation for design changes, approvals, and release milestones specific to fuel systems.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams (programme, manufacturing, purchasing, quality, development) to ensure successful fuel system integration into the overall vehicle design.
• Track programme timelines, budgets, and deliverables to ensure on‑time delivery of fuel system components.
• Monitor supplier performance using KPIs and initiate corrective actions where necessary.
• Support sourcing decisions through technical assessments and risk evaluations specific to fuel systems.
• Apply the 8D framework to identify and eliminate root causes of fuel system‑related issues through data‑driven analysis.
• Implement Failure Mode Avoidance (FMA) techniques, including containment, warranty mitigation, and recurrence prevention for fuel system components.
• Use structured problem‑solving tools to validate cause/effect relationships, incorporating measurement system capability and process mapping in fuel system design.
• Deliver cost‑effective, resilient outcomes through effective issue management methodologies.
• Demonstrate expertise in Requirements Management, Systems Modelling, Test Authoring, Testing, Workflow, and Configuration Management for fuel systems.
• Create design rules and standards for fuel systems and associated components.
• Leverage engineering toolsets to process measurement data and ensure high‑quality fuel system engineering releases.
• Apply digital tools to support robust fuel system release and maturation throughout launch phases.

• Interpret Programme Assumptions, ReUse strategies, and Commodity Plans to support fuel system feature delivery.
• Navigate the critical path of fuel system commodity delivery in alignment with the Complex Commodity Delivery System (CCDS) process.
• Apply all phases of APQP and Engineering Build Event Readiness (EBER) for fuel systems.
• Analyse financial data across multiple sources to identify risks and opportunities for cost optimisation specific to fuel systems.
• Use financial tools to deliver key performance indicators (KPIs) across engineering functions for fuel system projects.

• Significant experience in automotive fuel systems, including components such as fuel tanks, pumps, injectors, lines, and related…
