We made history and now we work to transform the future – for our customers, our communities and our families. You'll see your work on the road every day, helping people move freely and pursue their dreams. At Ford, you can build more than vehicles. Come build what matters.
\nAs part of our Manufacturing team, you’ll help build the world-class, state-of-the-art smart vehicles we're known for. In our plants around the world, we’re constantly developing new technologies and processes to further increase our efficiency. You'll get the satisfaction of making great products people use and love.
\nThe Vision System Subject Matter Expert will develop and maintain vision system standards across Powertrain processes, assist program teams in reviewing specific vision system applications, and support launch teams and plants solve vision system issues.
\nYou'll have the opportunity to create and maintain PTME vision system standards, work with BoP owners to keep process standards concurrent with vision standards, update and maintain PTME vision system specifications, and work with the controls organization to develop and maintain hardware standards.
\nYou'll also identify opportunities to reduce cost of vision systems hardware and software, apply ATP standards across powertrain, implement proof of concept solutions in production, develop plans to replicate new vision solutions across plants/lines, and benchmark powertrain facilities against BoP, PTME and ATP standards.
\nYou'll have the chance to diagnose and resolve vision system issues, support program and plant manufacturing teams' efforts to resolve vision system FTT and detection issues, provide support for program teams when reviewing vision system selection, and review OEM and vision integrator recommendations for feasibility, effectiveness, and compliance to standards.
\nYou'll work with a variety of tools and technologies, including camera hardware, vision specific hardware, phone/tablet hardware, traditional toolsets, OMS, Ford IT systems, FMA documentation, error proofing validation methods, cobots, traceability requirements, and data analysis tools.
\nYou may also have the opportunity to work with six-sigma Green Belt or Black Belt, strong controls background, knowledge of AI as it applies to vision systems, expertise selecting lenses, and understanding depth of field, resolution, and focal length calculations, knowledge and application of lighting techniques, knowledge and application of filtering software, proficiency in industry-standard platforms, experience in custom algorithm development, knowledge of PLC and other controls components, and ability to read, create, and update Electrical/Controls drawings.
