Requirements, Compliance & Traceability

Partner with Product Management, Quality, and Regulatory to develop and maintain embedded HW/SW requirements, safety analyses, and traceability from customer needs through verification and validation.
Ensure electrical and controls designs meet applicable regulatory and certification requirements (e.g., FDA, UL, IEC, CE, CSA).
Drive standardization of system-level specifications, test plans, and validation strategies.

Software Development & Tooling

Champion modern embedded software development practices using Confluence, Jira, and Git for requirements management, agile execution, version control, and documentation.
Establish and maintain best practices for coding standards, reviews, configuration management, and release processes.

People, Program & Financial Leadership

Develop budgets, resource plans, and schedules in partnership with NPD project managers and leadership.
Balance internal resources, global engineering contractors, and third-party support.
