Tech Lead

Family DescriptionApplied R&D (AR) consists of target-oriented research either with the goal of solving a particular problem / answering a specific question or for multi-discipline design, development, and implementation of hardware, software, and systems including maintenance support. Supplies techno-economic consulting to clients. AR work is characterised by its detailed and complex nature in order to systematically combine existing knowledge and practices to further developing and incrementally improving products, operational processes, and customer-specific feature development.

Subfamily DescriptionSoftware (SWA) comprises the definition, specification, and allocation of requirements from different sources utilising knowledge of systems engineering processes (specification & architecture). Contains processing of use case and feature requirements into conceptual models, operational scenarios, technical requirements, and functional description. Covers specification, design, implementation, and unit testing of Software (e.g. device drivers, microcode, hardware-related software & firmware) according to the requirements and architecture defined in the systems engineering process. Covers establishment and maintenance of Software Configuration Management (SCM) practices into software development projects, continuously building and integrating infrastructure tools and systems.

Independently works within broad guidelines and uses best practices and knowledge of internal or external business issues. Works with substantial discretion and uses specialist knowledge, analytical skills, judgment and broad conceptual and practical experience to solve complex problems and to contribute to process improvements. Transfers concepts for professional direction of own organisational unit into actionable measures. Provides working leadership and training to less experienced personnel. May lead small projects with limited risks and resource requirements. Analyses, designs, develops and tests products / services / improvements / bug resolutions for integrated hardware / software systems as per customers' requirements. Resolves customer trouble tickets. Diagnoses complex problems / issues (EG hardware, software, combination) and provides resolution or recommend corrective actions. Plans technical requirements from customers needs. Develops SW / HW build-controlled productions releases (EG main and update releases, service packages, maintenance updates, and customer design engineering). Defines product hardware / software evolutions through the creation and release of hardware / software documentation, hardware / software change control management, supplier and customer notifications. Retains technical and design knowledge for assigned products and technologies and provides training to the lower support teams (Tier 2 and Tier 3). Applies and maintains quality standards. Participates in process and tools evolutions and improvements. Applies the SW Care process (especially emergency case handling) contributing when needed to the fastest problem restoration.
