You’ll lead and mentor a small specialist team, set the technical direction, and see your designs move from concept through prototype to production.
This is a role with real influence. You’ll define CAN architectures, approve wiring harness designs, guide ECU and software strategies, and ensure systems meet performance, safety, EMC and compliance standards. You’ll work closely with project management, production, suppliers and service teams—so your decisions directly impact reliability, serviceability and the end user experience.
