About the role
As the Technical Program Manager for the Systems Engineering team, you will act as the operational engine and technical coordinator behind the vehicle’s functional architecture. This is not a passive task-tracking role; you will own the cross-functional alignment and execution required to take high-level product definitions and drive their translation into technically sound, safe, and traceable system-level implementations. You will partner closely with Systems Architects, Safety Specialists, Validation, and other cross-functional teams to drive the authoring of System Technical Specifications (STS), manage System Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (SFMEA) lifecycles, and align diverse stakeholders from industrial design to test track validation. Additionally, you will support systems engineers in defining test asset configurations and mapping exactly which requirements are validated across which test environments.
