Responsibilities

• Own the vision, strategy, and multi-year roadmap for the IMS xIL ecosystem, including SIL, HIL, vECUs, simulation, and continuous validation capabilities.
• Manage xIL capabilities as engineering products with defined customers, backlogs, releases, service expectations, adoption targets, and lifecycle plans.
• Drive a virtual-first, shift-left engineering strategy that enables earlier software integration, verification, and validation while reducing dependency on physical hardware and test assets.
• Coordinate across systems and software architecture, frameworks, software, plant modeling, DevOps, vECUs, and testing teams to deliver integrated, scalable xIL tools and platforms.
• Translate customer and program needs into prioritized product capabilities, technical roadmaps, investment decisions, and build/buy/partner strategies.
• Promote xIL adoption, standardization, and reuse across IMS, including reuse of models, simulations, test assets, automation, environments, and workflows.
• Define and track KPIs and performance metrics for adoption, engineering effectiveness, platform performance, quality, and business impact; use insights to drive improvement.
• Build and lead a high-performing xIL product and engineering organization, partnering with internal teams, suppliers, and technology partners.
• Lead, coach, and develop delivery leads, product owners, and technical engineering professionals supporting xIL products.
• Manage team performance by setting goals and expectations, providing feedback and coaching, evaluating performance, recognizing contributions, and addressing performance gaps.
• Build organizational capability through hiring, talent development, succession planning, and technical skill development.
• Create a culture of customer focus, engineering excellence, experimentation, ownership, and continuous improvement.
• Enable teams to make data-driven product and engineering decisions.
• Contribute to operational, tactical, and strategic planning and align resource allocation with unit goals and technical and business objectives.
• Apply informed decision-making and critical-thinking approaches, assess options and their potential impacts, and advise others in analyzing data and alternatives.
• Provide technical guidance, engage subject-matter resources, mentor and coach others, and ensure accountability for technical performance.
• Communicate effectively with different audiences and influence stakeholders through clear, evidence-based expertise.
• Maintain customer responsiveness, recommend capabilities based on changing needs, and deliver customer value.
• Manage team relationships and conflicts, seek team input, support employee development, and monitor morale and performance.
• Collaborate across global networks and diverse teams to reconcile viewpoints and achieve organizational goals.
