Support verification and validation activities by confirming electrical performance against requirements and expected operating conditions.
Work closely with validation and test teams to define test conditions, review results, and resolve electrical issues discovered during development and launch.

Program timing and execution discipline

Manage engineering deliverables in alignment with program timing, gateway milestones, and launch requirements.
Track open issues, support action plans, and escalate risks that may affect design maturity, validation completion, or launch readiness.
Follow program timing closely and ensure engineering activities, supplier deliverables, testing, reviews, and documentation are completed on schedule.
Balance technical depth with execution urgency to support timely decision-making and issue closure.
Contribute to launch preparation and ensure electrical engineering readiness for builds, validation events, and production milestones.

What can give you a competitive edge

Supplier design reviews and issue detection

Lead and participate in supplier design reviews to evaluate electrical design maturity, technical feasibility, interface compatibility, and compliance with requirements.
Critically review supplier schematics, circuit designs, interface definitions, test plans, and technical documentation with the ability to understand the design and detect issues.
