Role Summary

We are seeking a Technical Product Manager (TPM) with strong experience in Automotive systems engineering, Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), and AI / Generative AI to drive next-generation software-defined vehicle (SDV) and digital engineering products.

This role bridges vehicle systems, software architecture, MBSE models, and AI-enabled capabilities, owning the end-to-end product lifecycle from concept and roadmap through delivery and OEM adoption.

Key Responsibilities

Product Strategy & Roadmap

• Own and evolve the product roadmap for MBSE- and AI-enabled automotive platforms and tools across E/E architecture, SDV, ADAS, Connected Vehicle, or EV domains
• Translate OEM and Tier 1 business needs into clear product vision, epics, and features
• Define value propositions for AI-assisted MBSE use cases (e.g., requirements analysis, model generation, V&V automation, digital thread enablement) [TDM Creati...esentation | PowerPoint]

MBSE & Systems Engineering

• Drive adoption of MBSE practices using SysML / UML / MATLAB-Simulink / Cameo / Rhapsody / 3DX
• Partner with systems engineers to align requirements, functional architectures, logical/physical models, and V&V artifacts
• Ensure traceability across requirements → models → software → validation within PLM/ALM ecosystems [West Monro...ed - Final | PDF]

AI / GenAI Enablement

• Define and prioritize AI/GenAI features across automotive engineering workflows (MBSE Assist, requirement intelligence, test generation, anomaly detection, copilots)
• Collaborate with AI engineering teams on LLMs, RAG architectures, model governance, and edge/cloud deployment
• Ensure AI solutions comply with automotive safety, security, and data privacy constraints [Cognizant...AI RPA RFP | Word]

Cross-Functional Leadership
