• Pilot and refine engineering tools, methods, and processes in Advanced Vehicle Development to improve systems integration and support broader adoption

• Drive alignment across stakeholders by clearly communicating tradeoffs, risks, recommendations, and expected outcomes

• Benchmark competitive and emerging approaches to identify opportunities that strengthen vehicle integration and customer value

• Champion systems thinking, disciplined problem framing, and cross-functional execution

Your Skills & Abilities (Required Qualifications)

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills across functions and levels

• Demonstrated ability to influence without direct authority and align stakeholders around a common direction

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills in complex technical environments

• Experience using a systems engineering approach to solve technical and organizational challenges

What Can Give You a Competitive Advantage (Preferred Qualifications)

• 10+ years of engineering experience with increasing responsibility in vehicle, subsystem, or systems integration

• Experience in Advanced Vehicle Development or early-phase vehicle architecture work

• Experience working with product management, vehicle architecture, or chief engineer organizations
