## Senior Software EngineerApply: Hybrid: Milford, Michigan, United States of America: Full time: Posted Today: JR-202622383**Job Description****DUTIES:** Defines, designs, and develops control systems, diagnostics, and controller communications in the Propulsion Thermal ART in Vehicle Mechatronic Embedded Controls (VMEC) organization. Develops software and controls to manage integrated thermal loops to optimize energy use and thermal storage capacity. Participates in the development of controls and diagnostics within an agile environment using appropriate common methods for VMEC features. Perform as Subject Matter Expert (SME) for Scrum team’s content. Collaborates with the Program Management Team to refine Program Vision, Roadmap and Program Backlog. Collaborates with System Architect to determine Enablers and coordinate Enabler Rollout. Coordinates dependencies with other Product Owners when deliverables are dependent on other Teams for completion, attending PO synchronizations as needed. Refines, maintains, and prioritizes the Team Backlog. Works closely with Scrum Team Leader to ascertain Team capacity. Translates product and feature strategy into User Stories, assisting Scrum Team with Story definition, estimation, and sequencing for Program Increment Planning events. Works day-to-day with the Scrum Teams clarifying requirements, constantly communicating, and gaining alignment around Feature or Product Strategy.
