The work
You guide the organization in how to grow the functionality in steps and reach new capabilities in the SW baseline more continuously than in “bigger chunks” focusing on end goal. You do this by close collaboration with all developing areas in Engineering (R&D). Together we create the integration plan, a transparent way to follow the functional growth in the electrical system and SW baseline. We also handle test analysis that focus on critical dependencies to secure we are all targeting the same capability growth throughout the organization. We make technical evaluations on how the plan impact the complete and drive the integration planning towards project needs.
We drive the integration driven development strategy.
