TL;DR · Staff Program Manager, CoSIM and Calibration

The Staff Program Manager, CoSIM and Calibration joins a cross-functional team to lead the transition toward using co-simulation environments for vehicle calibration and system-regression activities. This role involves establishing the operating rhythm, governance, and priorities required to turn virtual capabilities into repeatable product-development methods. You will own the integrated roadmap, manage cross-functional execution across controls, software, systems engineering, and validation, and drive the readiness of virtual assets like plant models and test scenarios. The position requires a technical background in engineering or computer science with experience in vehicle controls, embedded software, and model-based development. You will solve the business problem of reducing physical-test dependency and shortening development cycles by scaling virtual engineering methods across complex hardware and software systems to improve engineering efficiency and first-time quality.

What you'll do

  • Own the integrated CoSIM and calibration execution roadmap, including scope, milestones, and measurable outcomes.
  • Lead cross-functional teams across calibration, controls, software, and systems engineering to deliver agreed capabilities.
  • Establish an operating model for intake, prioritization, ownership, and issue escalation across the program.
  • Drive the readiness of virtual assets such as simulation variants, plant models, and test scenarios.
  • Define repeatable calibration and regression workflows, including version control, traceability, and release readiness.
  • Identify and resolve technical, organizational, and schedule risks while providing leadership with clear recommendations.
  • Create transparent reporting on program health, capability maturity, adoption, and cycle time.
  • Represent the initiative in senior leadership reviews to translate complex engineering issues into business decisions.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree in engineering, computer science, mathematics, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent experience.
  • Demonstrated success leading technically complex, cross-functional programs from strategy through implementation and operational adoption.
  • Practical understanding of vehicle controls, embedded software, calibration, virtual validation, or related engineering-development workflows.
  • Experience coordinating teams through ambiguity, competing priorities, dependencies, and issues without relying solely on formal authority.
  • Strong written, verbal, and executive communication skills, including the ability to present risks and recommendations to senior leaders.
  • Demonstrated ownership of outcomes, disciplined follow-through, and a commitment to safety, quality, and customer needs.
  • Experience with co-simulation, software-in-the-loop, hardware-in-the-loop, model-based development, or other virtual engineering methods (preferred).
  • Experience with automotive calibration, propulsion, vehicle-motion controls, embedded controllers, plant models, or system-level testing (preferred).
