  • Ensure project outcomes meet agreed timelines, budget constraints, and quality requirements.

  • Support requirements analysis, including identification of technical constraints and licensing needs.

  • Develop and maintain detailed plans for customization, migration, and decommissioning of legacy methods, including approval and escalation handling.

  • Identify, assess, and mitigate project and process risks, and establish contingency plans.

  • Drive continuous improvement through regular lessons learned and refinement of software development processes.

  • Extensive experience leading projects in complex, multi-stakeholder environments, preferably within software development in automotive or industrial settings.

  • At least 10 years of experience in software engineering, ideally with a background in system architecture and system design modeling.

  • Strong analytical thinking and problem-solving skills.

  • Proven experience working with global, distributed teams and an enterprise-level perspective.

  • Solid expertise in requirements definition and management.

  • Demonstrated ability to understand complex systems and break them down into structured, manageable components.
