Full Job Description

General Information:

As a Software Technical Project Manager Engineer, you will lead embedded automotive software programs from quotation and planning to release and launch stabilization. You will orchestrate cross-functional execution across software, systems, hardware, validation, and quality teams to deliver predictable outcomes for customer and business commitments. You will combine technical understanding with strong project leadership to drive schedule performance, risk reduction, and high-quality releases in a safety- and process-driven environment.

Your Responsibilities:

Lead end-to-end software project delivery through quotation, planning, execution, integration, release, and post-launch stabilization.
Define and control project scope, milestones, deliverables, assumptions, dependencies, and critical path.
Build and maintain integrated project plans, resource plans, and capacity forecasts in alignment with program gates.
Coordinate cross-functional teams (Systems, SW Architecture, HW/EE, Validation, Quality, Manufacturing, Purchasing) to ensure technical and timing alignment.
Establish project governance: operating rhythms, steering meetings, milestone reviews, and escalation pathways.
Track and communicate project health using transparent metrics (schedule adherence, defect trends, risk exposure, requirement maturity, release readiness).
Lead risk and opportunity management, including mitigation actions, owners, due dates, and residual risk tracking.
Manage change requests and scope evolution while protecting committed delivery targets and product quality.
Ensure development execution complies with software process and quality expectations (for example, ASPICE-oriented work products and traceability).
Partner with technical leads to support integration planning, issue triage, and closure of blockers across internal and customer interfaces.
Drive continuous improvement of planning standards, reporting templates, lessons learned, and delivery playbooks.

Your Qualifications:

Bachelors degree in Computer Science, Electronics, Automotive Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related field.
5+ years of software project management experience in automotive and/or embedded systems.
3+ years of embedded software development experience, or equivalent strong technical background enabling credible technical coordination.
Proven ability to manage complex software scope, schedules, dependencies, and cross-functional teams in multi-stakeholder environments.
Solid understanding of software development lifecycles (Agile/Hybrid/V-model), release management, and quality gates.
Experience preparing structured executive-level status reports including progress, risks, decisions needed, and recovery plans.
Proficiency with delivery and collaboration tools (for example Jira/Confluence, MS Project or equivalent, Git/GitHub, Polarion/DOORS).
Strong communication, negotiation, conflict resolution, and stakeholder management skills.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience in electrified powertrain domains (inverter, motor control, BMS, charging, or related ECU software).
Familiarity with ASPICE, AUTOSAR, and functional safety concepts (ISO 26262).
Experience collaborating in customer-facing automotive programs and global distributed teams.
Exposure to cybersecurity process integration in software programs (ISO/SAE 21434 concepts).
PMP, IPMA, Scrum, or equivalent project management certification.
