Program Leadership & Coordination Lead cross-functional teams in the planning, development, testing, and deployment of chassis firmware. Collaborate closely with engineering teams (hardware, software, systems) to ensure alignment on technical requirements, schedules, and deliverables. Collaborate closely with distributed development teams to plan and deliver quality firmware for several chassis ECUs and systems such as the electronic brake assist system, electric power steering assist system, electronic park brake system, tire pressure monitoring system, trailer brake control system, vehicle dynamics controls systems, etc. Work with Validation and Verification teams to ensure software quality with relevant metrics, for both safety relevant and non-safety relevant systems/functions. Manage program risks, identify dependencies, and develop mitigation strategies to ensure timely execution of milestones. 2. Technical Oversight Understand the technical details of chassis firmware architecture, including control algorithms, communication protocols (e.g., CAN, LIN, Ethernet), and hardware interfaces. Coordinate system integration efforts between chassis components (e.g., steering, braking, suspension) and vehicle-level systems. Coordinate Systems Engineering activities for Chassis systems across various domains and organizations. Work with systems, firmware and software teams to resolve technical challenges and ensure compliance with industry standards and safety requirements. 3. Stakeholder Management Serve as the primary point of contact for stakeholders, including product management, suppliers, and vehicle integration teams. Facilitate communication between internal and external teams to ensure all parties are aligned on program objectives and progress. Manage supplier relationships for chassis-related firmware components, ensuring clear requirements and timely deliveries. Collaborate with all Hardware teams to determine hardware availability schedule and pedigree 4. Program Tracking & Reporting Develop and maintain detailed program timelines, roadmaps, and resource plans. Track and report program status, KPIs, and deliverables to leadership and stakeholders. Drive continuous improvement by analyzing program performance and implementing lessons learned. Identify risks to program and work cross-functionally though organization to resolve conflicts Triage defects resulting from Software integration and lab car testing Triage defects from testing outside of Software organization such as various vehicle tests, driver mileage accumulation, etc. Work with different Software domain teams in scheduling defect fixes Work with Software domain teams to create Release checklist 5. Compliance & Validation Ensure chassis firmware meets all regulatory, quality, and safety standards (e.g., ISO 26262, ASPICE). Collaborate with validation teams to define test plans and criteria for successful integration of chassis firmware. Own Release Notes including limitations and workarounds The minimum requirements we seek: 5+ years of experience and B.S. or M.S in computer science, software engineering, electrical engineering or relevant work experience as a technical program manager in automotive software space. Experience working on chassis software/firmware integration with Automotive hardware and vehicle teams. Strong technical knowledge in Chassis systems (Brake, Park Brakes, TPMS, Steering, etc). Experience with automotive networking protocols such as CAN FD and automotive ethernet. Experience in Defect Management. Experience in Release Management. Experience with Agile Methodology, CI/CD. Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
