- Track issue containment, escalation, and long-term corrective actions across the organization.
- Escalate and route failures to the right owners with clear context and expected outcomes.
- Leverage system and customer understanding to support prioritization across defects, technical debt, and future work.
- Lead root causing efforts, understand issues at a detailed level, and deliver both short-term containment and long-term solutions across vehicle programs, manufacturing environments, and release milestones.
- Perform deep debugging and root cause analysis across AV diagnostic and AV Platform software.
- Ingest, normalize, and correlate data from test benches, development vehicles, manufacturing, and the service community, creating large, useable data sets.
- Develop and maintain scalable tools, dashboards, and other data insight and visualization methods to identify trends, measure and forecast software quality, and root cause issues.
- Provide timely and accurate visibility into the state of the AVIP organizations released SW quality.
- Report on technical issues, translating findings and risks into clear communication for engineers, program stakeholders, and leadership.
