In this role, you will:

Lead the end-to-end architecture and development of next-generation occupant protection systems to meet global safety standards and technical targets.

Define high-level safety requirements and decompose them into actionable engineering metrics, recipes, and module-level targets.

Manage complex trade-offs between safety and other vehicle attributes while driving collaboration across structures, restraints, and sub-attribute teams.

Oversee virtual and physical test programs (DVP), manage instrumentation strategies, and monitor technical issue resolution via Jira throughout the vehicle lifecycle.

Partner with CAE teams to ensure simulation-to-test correlation and provide technical direction to leadership during key project gateways based on data analysis.
