You will collaborate across NVIDIA's fastest-paced automotive programs - including NDAS DriveAV and Hardware platform development - ensuring engineering teams reach and sustain world-class process maturity. With AI-powered tooling more involved in assessment analysis and evidence handling, the assessor role is evolving: technical depth remains crucial, but so does the ability to synthesize large amounts of structured output, clearly communicating results, and guiding improvement efforts alongside engineering and leadership teams.

If you enjoy blending deep ASPICE knowledge with strong communication skills and a perspective centered on Program Management, this role is for you. What you'll be doing: Carry out and assist with ASPICE (PAM 4.0) and HW SPICE (HW Engineering PRM/PAM 3.0) assessments involving systems engineering, software engineering, hardware engineering, supporting and management processes Work with AI-assisted assessment tooling to review, validate, and cluster findings; apply engineering judgment to identify systemic root causes and prioritize what matters most for each program Facilitate structured findings workshops with development teams - presenting evidence, discussing ratings, and evaluate improvement priorities in a constructive, process-focused way Translate findings into concrete, trackable improvement items; follow up with team leads and program managers through to closure Communicate assessment status, trends, and risks clearly to senior leadership and steering groups; prepare well-structured briefings that enable informed decisions Mentor engineering teams on ASPICE and HW SPICE process implementation, assisting teams in interpreting findings and progressing toward greater capability levels Contribute to the continuous improvement of the team's assessment methodology, including calibration of AI-assisted tooling against assessor judgment What we need to see: Strong knowledge of Automotive SPICE PAM 4.0, capable of evaluating, articulating, and supporting findings at BP and GP level 10+ years of experience BS or MS in engineering or a related field or equivalent experience Intacs Automotive SPICE Provisional Assessor certification; Competent Assessor strongly preferred Demonstrated track record in ASPICE assessments - from planning through report delivery Excellent communication and facilitation skills: able to present findings clearly to engineers and senior collaborators alike, and to drive structured discussion toward actionable outcomes Program or project management experience, with the ability to coordinate multiple collaborative workstreams and maintain progress on improvement programs Familiarity with ISO 26262, ISO/SAE 21434, and ISO 8800 is essential.
