• Lead the design and development of OEM seating products that prioritize ergonomic comfort, safety, and durability, ensuring optimal vibration dampening, load support, and operator comfort for end users in agriculture, turf, and construction industries.
• Apply ergonomic and human factors engineering principles to ensure seat designs accommodate a wide range of operator body types, reduce fatigue, and enhance usability in high-vibration, off-road environments.
• Collaborate with customers, suppliers, and internal stakeholders to gather feedback and incorporate real-world user experience insights into seat product refinement.
• Integrate suspension systems into seat assemblies in a way that enhances ergonomics, stability, and safety without compromising manufacturability or aesthetic design.
• Use Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and vibration analysis tools to model and evaluate load paths, stress points, and energy absorption behavior under real-world operating conditions.
• Ensure all seat designs comply with industry standards for ergonomics and safety, including International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
• Design adjustable seating features (e.g., lumbar support, seat height, backrest angle) that allow users to personalize their seating position for maximum comfort and performance.
• Oversee and participate in prototype evaluations to test for ergonomic performance , comfort, and operator interaction, using both internal assessments and field feedback.
• Conduct engineering analysis and modeling to confirm ergonomic effectiveness and structural performance under normal and extreme conditions.
