We seek a senior-level expert with demonstrated experience in technical regulations and New Car Assessment Programs (NCAPs), with a focus on advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and automated driving systems (ADS). Experience with automotive standards is also desired.
The candidate is expected to represent Qualcomm in international and national activities by monitoring and influencing regulatory landscape related to the technical regulations and NCAPs. Regular attendance and participation in organizations such as SAE International, ISO, CLEPA, VDA, NCAPs and UNECE is anticipated. Activities therein will include development of technical contributions, preparation and delivery of high-quality presentations, work to obtain consensus, proactive promotion of Qualcomm technologies, and protection of Qualcomm’s interest in the emerging areas.
