• Define and align asset purpose, capability, ownership, location, users, capacity, availability, lifecycle, upgrade path, and retirement criteria with the physical asset build team and engineering leaders responsible for testing
• Build a prioritized physical-asset roadmap aligned to SDV2, vehicle-program timing, build events, launch needs, and future program onboarding.
• Identify common-platform capabilities, program-specific needs, capacity gaps, duplicated infrastructure, and obsolescence risks.

Partner with the PEM to drive integrated execution

• Work directly with the PEMs to integrate asset readiness into the platform execution plan.
• Translate physical infrastructure needs into accountable owners, dates, dependencies, decision points, readiness criteria, and recovery actions.
• Provide a single, decision-ready view of bench and lab readiness, open issues, configuration risks, capacity constraints, and milestone confidence.
• Drive asset-related issues across organizational and technical boundaries from ambiguity to ownership, decision, implementation, and verified closure.
• Represent asset readiness in PAPIR, Dev/Val, quality-readiness reviews, launch reviews, and other forums as appropriate.

Establish the SDV2 asset portfolio and onboarding model

• Define the persistent HIL and regression baseline for BT1, N1, T1, C1, and future programs.
• Align physical assets to platform features, ECUs, electrical and logical topology, interfaces, diagnostics, calibration, software releases, test assets, and vehicle-integration activities.
• Create a repeatable onboarding model so future programs can use common enterprise infrastructure and standards.
• Ensure asset readiness is visible through relevant GVDP, software-quality, vehicle-integration, and launch milestones.

Govern configuration, Bench BOM, and release integrity

• Establish and maintain the Bench BOM for persistent HIL and regression environments.
• Coordinate tech packages (eBoM), part numbers, required attributes, I/O configurations, software-channel data, virtual models, variant rules, calibration content, harnesses, ECUs, instrumentation, and test-support hardware.
• Align deployed bench configurations to the version-controlled eBOM and Teamcenter release model.
• Ensure correct hardware, software, calibration, and configuration versions are built into Co-Sim, HIL, CVF, and regression environments.
• Coordinate DSI and VPI eBOM releases, Co-Sim setup, configuration/calibration generation, and formal release to HIL and CVF benches.

Build a persistent regression capability

• Establish the physical and operational requirements for night-regression test chambers and persistent regression environments.
• Ensure environments can consume virtual models, I/O configurations, software information, 3D math, TBECs, calibration data, and related test assets.
• Define run cadence, access and reservation rules, maintenance windows, failure response, data capture, and result ownership.
• Partner with software, hardware, validation, and release teams to improve regression throughput, coverage, repeatability, and confidence.

Organize physical infrastructure and lifecycle management

• Define requirements for bench hardware, ECUs, harnesses, power supplies, networks, instrumentation, simulators, compute, storage, environmental controls, safety provisions, and lab space.
• Track asset health, utilization, availability, downtime, blocked work, service response, and cost.
• Make investment and tradeoff recommendations to the Chief Engineer.

Lead cross-functional operating rhythms

• Establish a recurring asset-readiness cadence with the PEM, software release, hardware, systems engineering, PMO, quality, manufacturing, suppliers, and lab owners.
• Create standard work for asset planning, onboarding, readiness assessment, change control, escalation, bench release, and execution-health reporting.
• Communicate a unified position on asset readiness, risks, decisions, investment needs, and recovery plans.
• Convert technical complexity into concise, decision-ready information for senior reviews.
