• Maintain structured overviews of initiatives, milestones, dependencies, and risks.
• Prepare concise management‑level updates and materials for the Head of Product Safety and senior stakeholders.
  
  

Change Management & Awareness

• Support communication and awareness activities related to Product Safety expectations for AI‑enabled and connected products.
• Contribute to training concepts, guidance materials, and internal communications to promote consistent understanding across the organization.
• Encourage adoption of processes by focusing on clarity, pragmatism, and integration with existing ways of working.

• Familiarity with product lifecycle processes, system engineering, software‑enabled products, and/or cybersecurity concepts.
• Experience working in complex, global, cross‑functional organizations.
• Understanding of (or strong interest in) emerging regulatory topics such as AI governance, product compliance, and cyber resilience.
  
  

Qualifications
