Job description

We are seeking a Vehicle Feature Requirements Engineer to join our team on behalf of our Client. In this role, you will lead the end-to-end lifecycle of technical requirements, translating complex stakeholder needs into clear, scalable automotive features.

Key Responsibilities

• Requirements Ownership: Own the creation, authoring, review, approval, baselining, maintenance, and status tracking of requirements throughout the product lifecycle.

• Requirements Analysis: Analyze requirements to ensure they are clear, complete, consistent, feasible, unambiguous, testable, traceable, and aligned with program objectives, architecture constraints, applicable standards, and customer expectations.

• Stakeholder Alignment: Facilitate cross-functional requirement reviews and resolve gaps, conflicts, assumptions, and interface dependencies with global stakeholders while developing and applying consistent requirement-authoring standards and best practices.

• Feature Definition & Tailoring: Lead the definition and decomposition of customer and stakeholder needs into platform-level functional and non-functional requirements for new features. Tailor and manage approved platform requirements for program-specific applications, documenting justified deviations and maintaining alignment with the global feature intent.

• Customer-Centric Inputs: Use competitive benchmarking, voice-of-customer clinics, field insights, and stakeholder feedback to identify customer needs and convert them into measurable requirement inputs and acceptance criteria.

• Traceability & Change Control: Maintain bidirectional traceability from customer needs and requirements through system, subsystem, software, hardware, and validation requirements; assess requirement changes for technical, timing, cost, compliance, and validation impact; and manage changes through the approved review and change-control process.

• Validation & Compliance: Partner with validation teams to define acceptance criteria and verification methods, confirm requirement coverage, support issue resolution, and ensure applicable safety, cybersecurity, regulatory, and industry requirements are incorporated and documented.
