System integration (Proto Integrator)

Job Description

The proto Integrator (PI) works closely with the Project Leader/ Main Deliverable Owner to plan and execute defined Integration Packages (HLIS) on the proto Systems. You interface with D&E Project/ Team leaders, System Test Engineers, Project Integrators, Customer Support, Proto Engineers and Configuration Engineers.

Overall responsibility is to manage the pre-requisites for the HLIS packages and to deliver and qualify an optimized HLIS sequence and recovery, taking into account dependencies, resourcing, tooling, materials and other prerequisites. The Proto Integrator will report daily progress/ delays and escalate issues.

On this position you will be responsible for:

• Daily management of proto integration:
  
  • Maintain a daily plan for 1 or 2 proto systems based on the mid-term proto integration plan.
  • Set priorities and adjust plan in case of disturbances.
  • Define milestones and deliverables with the team of machine fathers and make sure these are met.
  • Maximize the utilization of the proto systems.
• Proto Integration plan:
  
  • Create and maintain proto integration plan (mid-term) in line with the product development master plan.
  • Strong contribution from and interaction with delivering projects is required. Often this is a combined effort with a System Test Engineer (overview of functional dependencies) and a product planner (planning dependencies with other systems or projects)
• Issue Management:
  
  • Make sure all issues found on proto systems are properly diagnosed and reported.
  • Chase and implement solutions.
  • Chair product integration issue management meeting.
• Machine Performance and Configuration Control:
