About the role
- Own the long-term technical direction and lifecycle success of products within the System Devices product program, translating product strategy, customer needs and business priorities into clear product scope and release plans.
- Drive the program release plan, balancing new product development, feature growth, maintenance, quality, compliance, obsolescence and lifecycle needs against available capacity and business priorities.
- Define product-level feature scope and acceptance criteria and ensure coherent product decisions across hardware, embedded software, connectivity, communication interfaces and system integration.
- Lead product-level technical and cost-benefit trade-offs and provide clear direction when balancing customer value, product cost, quality, compliance, serviceability and time to market.
- Own the product lifecycle perspective, including prioritization of Engineering Change Requests (ECRs), obsolescence risks, third-party dependencies and long-term serviceability.
- Assess product and release readiness against agreed acceptance criteria, ensuring that quality, cybersecurity, regulatory and approval requirements are considered in product decisions.
- Drive timely product decisions and create clarity across the installed product base, while identifying opportunities for simplification, modernization and future product evolution.
