DESCRIPTION

Key Responsibilities

• Investigates product software problems, understands causal mechanisms, recommends appropriate action, owns problem resolution, and documents results.
• Applies and supports the improvement of product software development processes and tools, including coding, compiling, and testing.
• Uses tools such as code editors, integration tools, static analysis tools, compilers, and hardware-in-the-loop test tools.
• Collaborates with product and software development teams to deliver verified software features, components, and builds.
• Makes decisions in the areas of software requirements, architecture, design, and test that impact the quality and performance of software builds and product lines.
• Owns problem resolution for moderately complex components, products, systems, subsystems, or services.
• Interacts and collaborates with cross-functional teams.
• Provides independent execution of established work processes and systems, while still developing technology or product knowledge.
• Engages with the improvement of systems and processes.
• May involve the coordination and direction of work amongst technicians and/or temporary student employees.
• Contributes effectively toward team goals, exhibits influence within a work group, and continues to develop proficiency in the competency areas critical to success in the role.

• College, university, or equivalent Bachelor's degree in Engineering or an appropriate STEM field is required.
• Post-graduate (Master's) degree relevant to this discipline area may be required for select roles.
• This position may require licensing for compliance with export controls or sanctions regulations.

• Product Failure Mode Avoidance : Mitigates potential product failure modes to improve the reliability of Cummins' products.
• Product Function Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis : Utilizes computational tools and methods to predict product capability.
• Product Platform Planning and Architecting : Develops a holistic product platform aligned with market level product plans.
• Product Software Design and Construction : Constructs product software using industry best practices and robust software engineering principles.
• Product Verification and Validation Management : Develops product systems validation plans to identify failure modes and manage product risk.
• System Requirements Engineering : Translates stakeholder needs into verifiable requirements and tracks their status throughout the system lifecycle.
• Systems Thinking : Defines the system of interest and analyzes linkages and interactions between elements to understand and predict system behavior.
• Collaborates : Builds partnerships and works collaboratively with others to meet shared objectives.
• Communicates Effectively : Develops and delivers communications that convey a clear understanding of the unique needs of different audiences.
• Decision Quality : Makes good and timely decisions that keep the organization moving forward.
