EH&S & Wellbeing Specialist - Underbody Process Engineering

An Advanced Manufacturing role embedded within UPE to own EH&S from concept through SOP for all new propulsion line launches. Operates upstream of plant EH&S — driving safety-by-design, chemical compliance, ergonomic integration, and launch readiness — and serves as the primary EH&S interface between UPE launch teams, plant EH&S, and corporate functions. Ensures EH&S is designed in before handoff to plant operations and tracks safety and ergonomic milestones from Planning through Production.Key Responsibilities:Launch Safety & Design Phase RiskLead SFMEA, ergonomic assessments, and risk-matrix reviews; embed EH&S specifications, guarding requirements, and regulatory standards into equipment designs and line layouts before equipment is orderedRepresent EH&S in EEM reviews; build EH&S actions into milestone gate checklists and verify closure prior to SOPDevelop and maintain equipment design safety standards, including interlocks on gates and fences (e.g., tamperproof fasteners, access control), and manage communication of standards updates to launch and engineering teamsCoordinate safety training requirements for launch personnel; align general plant policies with plant-specific training coordination and ensure pre-SOP readiness across all sitesManage contractor coordination for all EH&S requirements during construction, installation, and commissioning phases; verify contractor compliance with Stellantis safety standards before and during site workSafety & Ergonomic Launch Milestone Tracking:Serve as EH&S and ergonomics milestone owner from Planning through Production; track and report status at each program gate (Intention, Pre-Contract, Contract Commitment, Style Freeze, Detailed Design, SHRM, MPRM, LRM, SODM)During Planning: notify corporate and plant safety representatives, define project scope and specifications, review ARRS requests, and initiate SMI-105 with the project engineerDuring Design: complete SMI-102 at 40% design; coordinate SPARC submissions and SMI-162 reviews; lead PSR Preliminary review for Canadian facilities; support detailed design review at 90% (SMI-105) and ensure ergonomic assessments, virtual reality simulations, and safe-distance calculations (SMI-171) are completed and uploadedDuring Physical/Build & Validate: attend OEM build reviews and provide safety approval to ship; verify power-on requirements (SMI-105), perimeter guarding, placard proof, and entry-point signage; lead PSR Final Review and obtain Letter of Conformance for Canadian plants; finalize SMI-105 documentationDuring Production: support management of change processes; flag idle equipment (>6 months) for update or SMI initiation; review and update SMI-102 and SMI-166; upload to SPARCFor ergonomic milestones: identify ergonomic representatives at program outset; define scope, objectives, and lessons learned; specify ergonomic requirements; conduct preliminary assessments; lead digital/virtual ergonomic simulations; support workstation readiness, physical validation, material handling design, tool and equipment buyoff (SMI-105), and transition plant handoff; identify program lessons learned for continuous improvementEquipment Acceptance & Commissioning:Set EH&S acceptance criteria for Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT) and Site Acceptance Tests (SAT); participate in reviews, document findings, and provide green/yellow/red readiness status at all launch gates — unresolved EH&S risks are launch blockersPartner with plant EH&S through installation and commissioning; formally hand off compliance responsibilities at SOPChemical Management – ETI-103 & ETI-101:Manage ETI-103 reports for all new incoming launch equipment: review supplier chemical inventories, verify hazard classifications, resolve discrepancies, and confirm records are complete before equipment acceptanceCreate ETI-101 applications for new non-production material part numbers: coordinate with suppliers and plant EH&S to obtain SDS documentation, classify materials, and secure approval before plant introductionMaintain chemical compliance records; escalate non-compliant submissions and tie approval status to launch gatesLockout / Energy Control – Launch Phase:Develop and verify Lockout / Energy Control procedures, including Minor Servicing Tasks, for new UPE equipment in coordination with plant EH&S; ensure procedures are validated, documented, and transferred to plant EH&S prior to SOPIncidents, KPIs & Reporting:Log, classify, and resolve all pre-SOP safety events, near misses, and SMI-105s; trend findings into risk registers and updated design standards; drive A3s on systemic risks through closureDefine and track launch EH&S KPIs; load into DMS/obeya for program reviews; produce regular status reports for UPE and plant leadershipStandards, Training & Continuous Improvement:Update UPE design guidelines, EEM standards, and launch checklists with learnings from each program; identify gaps as new powertrain technologies emergeTrain and coach UPE engineers and launch teams on safety-by-design, Lockout / Energy Control, ETI-103/ETI-101, and ergonomics; serve as EH&S liaison to plant EH&S, corporate WHS, and corporate environmental throughout each launchBasic Qualifications:Bachelor’s in Safety, Environmental, Engineering, or ScienceMinimum THREE (3) years EH&S experience in manufacturingMinimum TWO (2) years supporting equipment launches or capital programsKnowledge of OSHA, NFPA, ISO 45001 / 14001Lockout / Energy Control, chemical management (ETI or equivalent), incident reportingSFMEA / risk matrix proficiencyMicrosoft Office;
