This is what you will do
As our System Leader, you will be a technical leader for pre-studies, which targets having well analyzed solutions that define how the project can implement the product change. For smaller pre-studies you will do the analysis yourself, and for large pre-studies you will lead a team that together performs the necessary investigations.
You will be responsible for reviewing input requirements and identifying possible solutions, analyze and anchor them until a recommendation can be made taking project scope, current platform and technical limitations into consideration. You will also work close to agile software development teams to support implementation of proposed solutions.

You need to be able to analyze and solve complex problems, creating pedagogical overviews, highlighting important details and have the ability to anchor them with different stakeholders. To do this successfully, you need to have technical know-how combined with good networking- and communication skills.
It is meriting if you have experience from vehicle product development as well as Telematics and Connected Vehicles.
