  • Evaluate and manage change requests from a requirements perspective
  • Monitor the impact of changes on systems, subsystems, hardware, software, testing, schedules, and risks
  • Support the verification and validation of requirements
  • Analyze and improve the quality of requirements and requirements baselines
  • Document and track decisions, assumptions, open issues, and dependencies

Collaboration with Development Organizations

  • Work closely with Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, Hardware Engineering, Functional Safety, Cybersecurity, Test, and Quality Assurance
