Overview

What you will do: As the Senior Manager, Software Engineering, you will lead and scale Clarios' global software engineering organization as a core within Embedded System Product Engineering . You will build and continuously develop the capabilities required to deliver high -quality, compliant, and scalable embedded software for safety-critical low voltage energy systems. You will drive the transition from project-based development towards a platform-oriented approach and ensure reliable execution of software delivery across all automotive programs, including SOP and field performance . Your success will be defined by your ability to build a high -performing global organization, strengthen engineering discipline, and enable efficient, scalable software development across the portfolio. How you will do it: • Lead, develop grow the global software engineering organization, including structure definition, leadership development, and capability build-up • Build, scale, and integrate software engineering teams into a unified global organization • Drive execution of software development across programs, alignment with product engineering and program requirements• Own and enforce software development processes, standards, and governance aligned with ASPICE, ISO 26262, and ISO 21434 and Clarios' Governance• Develop and introduce software platform , including configuration management , variant management, and lifecycle management• Implement and operate modern development environments, including CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and integrated toolchains within the organization• Define and track software KPIs to manage delivery performance, quality, and efficiency• Lead software-related supplier and partner management, including sourcing inputs, technical governance, quality/performance management, and ensuring supplier deliverables comply with Clarios' processes and standards (ASPICE/ISO 26262/ISO 21434) across the full lifecycle.• Ensure strong integration of software engineering into cross-functional development across systems, hardware, and product management What you look for: Required: o 12+ years of experience in embedded software engineering within automotiveenvironments, preferably safety-critical systemso 5+ years of leadership managing and developing engineering organizationso Proven experience in building and scaling global software engineering organizations across multiple regions and cultureso Proven track record in delivering embedded software for automotive production programs, including SOP and field introductiono Strong experience in battery management systems (BMS) and LV-Energy Systems or similar systems (e.g. power electronics control)o Deep understanding of automotive standards including ASPICE (includingassessments), ISO 26262, and ISO 21434o Proven experience in developing software for safety-critical systems (ASIL C/D)o Experience in developing or introducing software platforms in the context of product platforms, including modular architectures, reuse, and variant managemento Strong understanding of embedded system architectures and cross-functional system integrationo Experience in industrializing software, including release management , configuration management, and multi-program executiono Experience with modern development environments , including CI /CD, automated testing (MiL, SiL, HiL), and integrated toolchainso Proven ability to build engineering capabilities, including hiring, organizational design, and leadership developmento Experience in Tier 1 automotive suppliers or OEM environments strongly preferred.
