Project House Lead (all genders) - Vehicle Electronics & Software Delivery Accelerator

 

Join us as a Project House Lead (all genders) - Vehicle Electronics & Software Delivery Accelerator in our Embedded Systems team and help shape the future of autonomous mobility!

The Project House Lead establishes and runs a fast-paced execution environment (“Project House”) focused on resolving critical vehicle electronics and software challenges, accelerating integration, and enabling stable, frequent releases. 

This role brings together cross-functional experts, suppliers, and developers into a structured, results-driven setting to solve high-priority technical issues. Acting as an orchestrator rather than a traditional line manager, the Project House Lead ensures clarity, speed, accountability, and measurable outcomes. 

What you will do

• Build and institutionalize the Project House framework, governance, and ways of working 
• Define intake criteria, prioritization logic, and escalation paths and create a high-energy, delivery-focused culture emphasizing ownership and rapid decision-making 
• Lead structured “boot camp” initiatives targeting integration blockers, quality issues, or release risks and break down complex technical problems into executable workstreams 
• Bring together cross-functional teams efficiently and act as a neutral integrator to overcome silo thinking 
• Support program teams in stabilizing builds and improving release readiness and promote best practices for CI/CD, test automation, and integration maturity 

What will help you to fulfill your role 

• Master’s degree or equivalent in Electrical Engineering, Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, Automotive Engineering, or similar 
• Solid track record in automotive development (in best case tier 1 or OEM) or similarly complex embedded systems environments 
• Strong understanding of vehicle E/E architecture and software integration 
• Proven experience in navigating late-stage integration challenges and deep understanding of modern software delivery practices (e.g., CI/CD, DevOps mindset, incremental releases) 
• Demonstrated success in taskforce, turnaround, or crisis-style environments and exceptional ability to structure ambiguity into actionable plans 
• Highly persuasive with senior engineers and leadership alike as well as skilled at aligning teams without formal authority 
• Pragmatic, outcome-oriented, resilient, and ability to thrive under pressure and tight deadlines
