Section Head - Field Quality & Reliability
Hero MotoCorp
Section Head - Field Quality & Reliability role at Hero MotoCorp in Jaipur, Rajasthan. This is a full-time, on-site position at the company's R&D centre.
The listing was posted on 15 Oct 2026 on Hero MotoCorp's careers site, in the Research & Development centre at the Jaipur centre.
About Hero MotoCorp
Hero MotoCorp describes itself on its careers site as the world's largest manufacturer of motorcycles and scooters, a position it has held for 25 consecutive years, with about 130 million customers across 52 countries. Its global R&D hub, the Centre of Innovation and Technology (CIT), is in Jaipur, and that is where this role sits.
The role in plain terms
This is the leadership seat over Hero's field-quality and reliability function: owning market-issue resolution against target timelines, holding vehicle-level knowledge across component groups (chassis, EDD, electrical and body), and driving first-time-right design quality and reliability for new products by leading cross-functional teams. The section head manages market issues by severity, runs design-review participation for new models, and oversees DVP updates linked to model-maturity-based reliability and cycle-time reduction. (The employer spells the title 'Reliablity' on its own site.)
What the employer asks for
These requirements are quoted or closely condensed from the employer's listing so the details are not distorted:
- Strong understanding of automotive processes and component design (Catia, PLM, APiS)
- In-depth DFMEA knowledge applied to market-issue resolution
- Vehicle-level knowledge across chassis, EDD, electrical and body component groups
- Leadership quality with project management and stakeholder management
- MS Office and MS Project; analytical and negotiation skills
- Management of market issues within severity-based timelines
Who this role suits
This suits a senior quality leader who has already run field-quality teams in an automotive OEM or Tier-1, since the M3-to-M5 band is Hero's management range. The section-head layer is about setting the resolution system (severity rules, DVP discipline, design feedback loops), not only closing issues personally, so it fits someone who has built processes other engineers follow.
Practical notes
The listing names an internal pay band (M3 to M5) rather than a salary figure. Expect leadership-case interviews: a systemic field failure you owned, how you set team targets, and how you pushed a design change through resistance. Note that the employer's listing does not state a degree requirement explicitly in the section shown, unusual for this level, so clarify eligibility if your path is non-standard.
How to apply
Apply on Hero MotoCorp's own careers site: Section Head - Field Quality & Reliability at Hero MotoCorp. This listing comes from the employer's official careers portal (jobs.heromotocorp.com), where it was posted on 15 Oct 2026 and was still open when we checked on 31 Oct 2026. Before applying, re-read the employer's own description in full, since eligibility details, deadlines and process steps can change at any time and the employer's page is always the final word. Tailor your resume to the specific requirements above rather than sending a generic one: mirror the skills and tools the listing names where you genuinely have them. Never pay a fee to apply or interview; a genuine hiring process does not charge candidates.
