Abstract
Emerging phenomena such as autonomous driving and connectivity are rapidly changing the automotive industry. These phenomena create new challenges for systems engineers, who must be able to adapt quickly to new market needs and requirements. Specific systems engineering roles help a German OEM meet these challenges. This contribution discusses how this OEM-specific roles can be transferred to other companies and projects.
