Job details:
Schaeffler is a dynamic global technology company and its success has been a result of its entrepreneurial spirit and long history of private ownership. Does that sound interesting to you? As a partner to all of the major automobile manufacturers, as well as key players in the aerospace and industrial sectors, we offer you many development opportunities.
General Information:
The Technical Project Manager is responsible for the complete required engineering deliverables from Requirements to final test including project effort estimation and overall time planning of big projects. He / she leads functional Technical Project Managers of all disciplines and coordinates the technical activities. He / she has to take care of issues which cannot be solved within one discipline team. Approves the technical solution of the product and drives the Product Release.
He/she is the main technical interface to the customer and supports the project manager by coordinating all disciplines and finding the best balance between system functionality and project costs.
Your Key Responsibilities:
Preliminary note:
- The following lists many TPM responsibilities and much work content. It is clearly understood that the underlying work amount often cannot (and should not) be handled by one single person. Hence, work content may also be delegated to others within a system project, e.g. a Subsystem-TPM. However, the overall responsibility remains with the TPM.
- Furthermore some responsibilities listed here are shared with dedicated roles within the system development project team (e.g. the requirements engineer or the test manager).
- On the contrary, for reduced scope projects (e.g. a ""SW-only"" variant of an existing product) the work scope of the TPM role may be limited. Then roles may be combined, fulfilled by one person.
