In this role I was solely responsible for developing a level 3 system; this included detailed requirements writing, ensuring written requirements met level 2 requirements, management of requirements system (DOORS) and the cascade of requirements to level 4 sub-systems.
During this time I attended an IBM requirements writing course. Management used my requirements deck as an example to the other system owners and asked me to run review sessions to improve other requirement decks in the department.
My system was part of the pilot for Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) to create robust, traceable systems artefacts, including; Use Case Diagrams | Activity Diagrams | Functional Allocation Diagrams | System Architecture Diagrams | Sequence Diagrams | Logical Flow Diagrams | Functional Flow Diagrams | Boundary Diagrams | State Machine Diagrams
An example Use Case Diagram. This type of diagram helps describe the logical breakdown of a system, the system boundary, high level dependencies and external actor interactions.
An example Activity Diagram. This diagram 'zooms in' to a particular Use Case, describing in basic detail the logic required to enable operation of this part of the system.
- Translation of customer experience specification (feature description) into a logical system.
- Definition of functions & interactions that compose the system through functional & non-functional requirements.
- Liaised with Architects to translate logical design into physical design compatible with the Electrical Vehicle Architecture.
- Liaised with Verification & Validation team for definition of test specification at System level, supported execution for 1st application.
- Produced Functional Safety and Technical Conformity documentation.
- Liaised with key suppliers on System Engineering activities (use cases, architecture, functional requirements, etc.).
- Completion of the System Quality & Functional Safety deliverables at logical and physical levels.
- Liaised with all the Subsystems (JLR and suppliers) responsible for the implementation of functionality.
