Own design for manufacturability, NPI handoff, and production support for electronics at volume, including test coverage, yield, and corrective actions. * Represent embedded in program reviews, design reviews, and risk reviews, making sure embedded constraints shape decisions early rather than surfacing late. * Own embedded regulatory and compliance readiness (e.g., UL, FCC, CE/UKCA, EMC) in partnership with Compliance and Quality., * Establish and enforce standards for schematic and layout reviews, firmware code reviews, version control, release management, and documentation. * Build out hardware-in-the-loop testing, unit test frameworks, build automation, and CI/CD for firmware. * Champion the use of AI across the embedded team to accelerate design, code generation, testing, and debugging, and define how we integrate it responsibly into our workflows.
