Powernet Component & Network Engineer
Job Description
1. Powernet responsibility
Take technical responsibility for vehicle low-voltage powernet functions across requirement clarification, system integration, validation, and issue handling.
Analyze and derive system requirements for 12V powernet functions and support architecture-aware clarification of system behavior.
Plan, support, and evaluate powernet testing at vehicle, bench, and system level.
Support release preparation and technical documentation according to project milestones.
2. MGS/MGC responsibility
Act as module-group speaker/coordinator for the relevant powernet scope and coordinate topics across project management, line functions, integration teams, and suppliers.
Clarify and steer cost, maturity, timing, and technical-concept topics for the module-group scope.
Prepare decision-ready proposals, tradeoff analyses, and escalation inputs for target deviations and concept alternatives.
3. Component localization responsibility
Support localization of 12V powernet-related components for local vehicle projects.
Coordinate technical topics with suppliers, local teams, and global counterparts regarding component behavior, maturity, feasibility, and implementation constraints.
Clarify component-level interfaces and support evaluation of impacts on system behavior, validation, and release readiness.
4. Network development and troubleshooting responsibility
