About the Role

TCU assumes end-to-end ownership of product delivery and product line execution for one or more Ready Connect product families, including RC1.1Q (Quantel), RC1.1K (Kontron), Ready Connect JOEM, Ready Connect Stratus NAD, SATCOM TCU, and 2-Wheeler TCU. This role anchors delivery on both FFRD (hardware) and BKC (software) baselines, driving reuse, quality, and velocity across the assigned portfolio.

You will jointly shape the hardware and software product roadmaps with Product Management, ensuring that both HW and SW inputs are captured, prioritized, and executed. The role requires leading pre-sales/RFQ pursuits, supporting new customer acquisition, and institutionalizing engineering practices (PLM100, BMS M Gates, PSR) to achieve operational and innovation excellence.

You will steer multidisciplinary teams from concept to launch, ensuring traceability (IRS→SRS→TRS/TFS→Test) and robust release governance for each BKC against its associated FFRD. The Delivery Manager is responsible for integrating hardware and software requirements, balancing platform strategy with customer-specific demands, and managing SKU discipline and derivative strategy.

Additionally, you will establish and scale a cybersecurity-first, CI/CD-driven test automation and pre-compliance lab for FFRD+BKC—enabling early EMI/EMC and reliability screening, integrating security tooling into pipelines, and orchestrating HIL validation across connectivity domains (Cellular, GNSS, Wi-Fi, BT/BLE, SATCOM) and vehicle networks (CAN, CAN FD, Automotive Ethernet/TSN), accelerating regulatory/OEM approvals.

The Delivery Manager is responsible for the successful delivery of products to the project and delivery organization, collaborating and working closely with these teams to ensure seamless integration, alignment of objectives, and timely execution. This includes proactively engaging with project managers, delivery leads, and cross-functional stakeholders to address challenges, synchronize plans, and drive continuous improvement throughout the product lifecycle.


What You Will Do


  • Own delivery for FFRD+BKC across one or more of the following product families: RC1.1Q, RC1.1K, JOEM, Stratus NAD, SATCOM TCU, and 2-Wheeler TCU; ensure HBOM↔SBOM mapping, release readiness, and BKC cadence.
  • Co-own HW & SW roadmaps with Product Management; balance platform strategy with customer-specific demands; manage SKU discipline and derivative strategy per PLM100.
  • Maintain ALM traceability (IRS→SRS→TRS/TFS→Test Reports→Release Notes) and conformance to BMS M Gates and PSR thresholds.

What Makes You Eligible


  • 15–18 years of experience in Agile delivery with clear ownership of project execution.
  • Direct System, HW, SW, Security, Integration, Validation, and Certification teams to deliver gold-quality BKCs validated on reference FFRDs.

What We Offer


Work from Office environment with in-person collaboration, with most office-based roles onsite five days a week.

Access to employee discounts on world-class Harman and Samsung products (JBL, HARMAN Kardon, AKG, etc.)

Extensive training opportunities through our own HARMAN University
