Ownership and management of complex distributed vehicle features, from definition to delivery, in one or more vehicle domains, Chassis, Body, Powertrain, Autonomous Drive, Digital Cockpit, Infotainment and Connectivity. This includes authoring function description documents, logical architectural diagrams, requirements, test specifications, etc. Working closely with the Electrical and Software architectures team, responsible for ensuring vehicle features and their interfaces align with the Electrical Architecture, and meet applicable quality, safety and legal requirements. This extends to supporting feature definitions carried out by domain specialists to ensure adequate information flow, technical alignment, and the adherence to guidelines and quality standards. Provide support to Project Engineers and Tier 1 suppliers, ensuring common technical understanding of vehicle software features, and their logical and physical interfaces. Responsible for delivery in line with feature implementation plans. Support coordination and execution of certification activities where needed. Working closely with the Digital Architecture team, responsible for ensuring network database updates supporting distributed functions are correctly specified and implemented. Working closely with the Verification and Validation team, responsible for ensuring test strategies and plan are adequate and provide sufficient level of coverage at different project stages. Manage engineering changes and issues that occur during the engineering lifecycle. Use engineering design artefacts to perform impact and root cause analysis of issues understanding the impact on vehicle systems, and work with stakeholders and domain experts to ensure timely solutions. Requirements: Relevant experience of systems engineering delivering software controlled, distributed functions from conception to launch within an automotive engineering environment. Demonstrable experience delivering vehicle components and functions in at least one vehicle domain, Chassis, Body, Powertrain, Autonomous Drive, Digital Cockpit, Infotainment and Connectivity. Experience working on multiple domains would be highly beneficial. Extensive experience generating and analysing requirements. Working knowledge of requirements management tools, Polarion and Doors. Working knowledge of vehicle electrical architectures, including domain and zonal architectures, distributed vehicle functions and networks.
