Coach and guide development teams in interpreting and delivering on system-level requirements in an iterative, value-driven way.
Arrange and lead training sessions to promote best practices in writing clear, testable, and implementation-ready requirements.
Contribute to transformation programs focused on improving engineering governance, advancing Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) practices, modernizing digital toolchains, and enhancing cross-discipline collaboration.
Engage with product management and senior systems engineers to help define backlogs and capabilities that reflect high-level requirements and system constraints.
Drive traceability, compliance, and validation while supporting the flexibility demanded by agile methods.
