Job Description

Job Responsibilities

• Translate stakeholder, user, product, and regulatory needs into system and software requirements that are clear, testable, feasible, and traceable across the full development lifecycle.
• Define, analyze, review, and maintain software requirements, including functional, interface, performance, reliability, safety, security, serviceability, and error-handling requirements.
• Collaborate with software architects and development teams to ensure system intent is correctly translated into software architecture, software design, interface definitions, and integration strategies.
• Coordinate system decomposition, system partitioning, and allocation of requirements to subsystems and software items, ensuring consistency, completeness, and technical coherence.
• Support software development in regulated environments by ensuring development activities, deliverables, and traceability are aligned with IEC 62304, applicable quality procedures, and company design control requirements.
• Operate effectively in Agile development ways of working by managing product backlog, and contributing to sprint planning, design reviews, acceptance discussions, and incremental clarification of requirements and design outcomes.
• Drive investigation of technical issues, anomalies, complaints, and integration problems by reproducing issues, analyzing evidence, identifying root causes, coordinating resolution, and supporting effective corrective and preventive actions.
• Contribute to risk management, verification planning, and integration planning by ensuring that requirements and design decisions are adequately covered by verification and that identified risks are translated into engineering actions.
• Review system and software design proposals, identify requirement conflicts and design trade-offs, and recommend improvements to enhance reliability, maintainability, usability, performance, and product quality.
• Contribute to software and system integration readiness by clarifying interfaces, supporting end-to-end scenarios, and helping teams define conditions for successful verification, validation, release, and maintenance.
• Apply modern engineering practices, including Harness Engineering and AI-assisted coding or analysis approaches, to improve requirement elaboration, design reviews, defect investigation, and engineering productivity, while adhering to approved governance, coding standards, security, and compliance expectations.

How we work together
We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office-based teams, this means working in-person at least 3 days per week. Onsite roles require full-time presence in the company’s facilities. Field roles are most effectively done outside of the company’s main facilities, generally at the customers’ or suppliers’ locations.
