Responsibilities

We are seeking a Technical Project Manager to lead program execution for Restraints Engineering. This role exists to connect supplier development, planning BOM maturity, engineering changes, cost, parts procurement, logistics, and system validation into one integrated delivery plan. You will partner with restraints engineers, suppliers, test teams, purchasing, manufacturing, warehouse operations, and adjacent interior and seating teams. In the first 12 months, success means program milestones are met, validation parts arrive at the correct test locations on time, risks are escalated early, and leadership has clear visibility through accurate dashboards and readiness metrics. This role offers direct ownership of the operational system that turns safety-system designs into validated, launch-ready vehicle content.
Program Delivery: Own the integrated Restraints project plan across scope, timing, budget, parts ordering, sub-assembly builds, and validation deliverables, ensuring program milestones are met.
Supplier Execution: Drive Restraints suppliers to deliver mature components on time, resolve execution gaps, and align their plans with vehicle program and validation milestones.
BOM and Cost: Own planning BOM readiness by tracking part-number maturity, engineering changes, piece price, engineering development and testing costs, and tooling impacts; provide clear input to budget and sourcing decisions.
Validation Readiness: Translate engineering validation plans into complete test-part requirements and ensure the correct parts are specified, procured, built, shipped, and available when testing begins.
Risk and Metrics: Proactively identify program risks, issues, and cross-project dependencies; maintain dashboards, KPIs, and escalation paths that drive timely decisions and issue closure.
Cross-Functional Logistics: Coordinate suppliers, engineering, purchasing, warehouse, freight, packaging, trade compliance, manufacturing, and adjacent seating and interior teams to deliver safe, compliant domestic and international material flow for engineering builds and tests.
