Position's Contributions to

Work Group :

The hauling application team is responsible for the overall onboard solution (vehicle level) for Cat autonomous haulage machines. This position is to work under the direction of the team's technical program manager and application architect. Contribute to onboard system designs and decisions Identify and evaluate potential solutions Analyze value and risk of proposed changes Break down solutions into actionable delivery elements Triage and resolve system level issues Translate business requirements into technical requirements and solutions Document designs and coordinate delivery with partner teams Typical task breakdown: The application architect assigns a task for a new requirement or issue. Collaborate within the hauling team, with process partners, and with SMEs to identify potential solutions and select one. Analysis may be required to understand the problem or to evaluate benefits and risks. Document the selected design and break it down into work items assigned to the appropriate teams. Collaborate with delivery teams as needed during implementation. When implementation is complete, review delivery against the original request and requirements. Collaborate with the validation team as they create a test plan. Support them as needed to triage issues. Interaction with team : High collaboration across the hauling and platform teams. Team Structure This role is a member of an application team led by a technical program manager and application architect.
