Associate SE Lead

1.Purpose

Systems Engineer - RnD (referred to as Systems Engineer in this document) plays a critical role in defining, implementing, and validating systems (i.e., products & services) during new development as well as product change management. Systems Engineer collaborates with multiple subsystem teams, to develop overall technical solution and ensure that subsystems are consistent at system level. Systems Engineer is responsible product to meet systems requirements.

Systems Engineer actively collaborate with product managers, architects, and program managers. As a technical expert, contributes to planning, risk, and issue management at system level.

2.Responsibilities and key activities

This section includes the responsibilities and key activities that the Systems Engineer is either accountable for, or responsible to execute.

Responsibilities and key activities

General

Accountable for ensuring overall system level technical consistency.

Responsible for advising and guiding the teams on technical risk assessments, Corrective Actions (CAs), simulations, root cause analysis and incident investigation.

Interface management

Accountable for governing the interfaces within a system which are not critical from integration and business point of view.

Responsible to refer Interfaces which affect system architecture (system level, cross-category, and category level) to Systems Architecture Management (SAM) governance, who has decision making authority on such critical interfaces.

Accountable to ensure that Interfaces within responsibility are defined as per the system level requirements, and the corresponding Interface requirements are properly documented and maintained in relevant KONE tools. E.g., In case of elevator and escalator platforms, systems engineers are accountable for interfaces that are not managed in the system architecture management process. (Criteria on how the interfaces are categorized in or out of SE responsibility, are part of the applicable product development processes).

New product development initiatives

Accountable for technical system requirements creation and their change management. SEs play the process roles, as a technical expert from system point of view, e.g., as member of extended Core team of development projects

Accountable and responsible for requirement decomposition and allocation to component and subsystem level, based on the requirements and specifications defined by product manager, architect and other stakeholders.

Accountable for creation and execution of system integration plan and system Verification & Validation plan. Contributes to review component and subsystem level Verification & Validation plans.

Lifecycle management of products

Accountable and responsible for Interfaces checks during product change management e.g., Change Requests (CRs).

Accountable for creation and execution of system integration plan and system Verification & Validation plan.

Develop Capabilities

SE develops Systems Engineering competence, shares know-how within SE community.

Contributes to optimization of processes (e.g., instructions, guidelines for efficient use of tools for Interface and Requirements mgmt.)

Product roadmaps and prioritization

Contributes to product roadmaps and portfolio prioritization, leveraging deep knowledge of the products and their engineering.

3.Performance measures

Performance measures

Quality of Projects and Releases Technical Solution at system level (e.g., FYCOR, EFR)

# of CRs verified for system interface check

# of System level Corrective Actions

# of System Level requirements

#Verification and Validation Coverage at System Level
