Bonus Qualifications: Prior experience developing Automotive Systems in Body or Motion Domains (e.g., Brakes, Steering, Suspension or Body Controllers).
Qualifications: 5+ years of experience as a Technical Program Manager or Systems Engineer in an aerospace, autonomous vehicle, or advanced automotive setting, with a proven track record of driving complex, cross-functional projects from requirements through validation. Deep, practical familiarity with the systems engineering "V-model" lifecycle, fail-operational architectures, and requirements management frameworks. Proven experience tracking and driving complex safety workflows, specifically SFMEAs, DFMEAs, FTAs (Fault Tree Analyses), and ISO 26262 / MIL-STD-882 compliance. Strong background in vehicle E/E system design, electrical integration, or managing complex hardware/software interfaces. Expertise using standard project, change, and configuration management stacks (e.g., JIRA, Smartsheet) alongside requirements management tools and processes (such as Jama, Polarion, or DOORS). Demonstrated ability to command a room of highly specialized domain experts (hardware, software, safety, manufacturing), facilitate both technical and non-technical discussions, and drive consensus without direct authority.
B.S. or M.S. in Mechatronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related technical field.
