Product Owner

Work as a product owner in Tech solution RD vehicle and Drive systems team. Responsible for local IT product development, central product/project rollout and digital transformation strategy for RD future business. Work as tech front runner to drive and implement digital and AI based solutions for RD China business requirements.

Work closely with R&D engineering and validation functions to identify and prioritize high-value Digital Twin and Digital Validation use cases. Connect engineering data and processes across CAD/DMU, PLM/PDM, CAE and simulation, visualization/VR, vehicle data and physical test/validation environments, and establish an integrated digital thread supporting virtual engineering and validation. Drive use cases such as VR-based design reviews, Seat-Buck / ART integration, virtual ergonomics, simulation-based validation and other Digital Twin scenarios that can reduce dependency on physical prototypes, accelerate validation cycles and enable earlier engineering decisions.
Act as the key interface between R&D business, Digital Twin technology and IT. Provide the technical and product expertise required to assess solution concepts, define target architecture and integration requirements, evaluate model and data quality, challenge technical proposals from external partners, and steer solutions from concept and PoC towards sustainable business adoption. Ensure that Digital Twin solutions are not developed as isolated pilots, but become reusable and scalable capabilities integrated into R&D engineering processes.

Align China-specific requirements and use cases with headquarters counterparts and the global Digital Validation strategy. Identify opportunities for reuse of global solutions in China as well as potential contribution of China-developed Digital Twin capabilities to the global R&D ecosystem.

In addition, own and continuously develop selected local R&D digital products such as FMS, CELL and related AI-enabled solutions, and support the rollout and local adaptation of relevant headquarters products such as NERD. Ensure product delivery, supplier steering, system integration, quality, security, compliance and business adoption across the assigned digital product portfolio.
