Here at Scout Motors, we're carrying forward the heritage of one of the most iconic American vehicles in history. A vehicle dating back to 1960. One that forged the path for future generations of rugged SUVs and trucks and will do so once again.
But Scout is more than just a brand, it's a legacy steeped in a culture of exploration, caretaking, and hard work.

Respect for both work and play, with vehicles that are equally at home at a camp site, a job site, or on a Tuesday commute. And respect for our customers by developing two powertrains that meet their requirements — an all-electric powertrain as well as the Harvester™ range extender powertrain which includes a built-in gas-powered generator with an estimated 500 miles of combined range.
At Scout Motors, we empower our talented, inclusive, and entrepreneurial teams to innovate. What makes a Scout employee?

Role Summary
The Senior Engineering Process & Digital Solutions Specialist drives the definition and operationalization of engineering processes, ways of working, and digital solutions that address the needs of Scout's vehicle programs and enable effective day-to-day engineering execution. The role translates business and technical needs into holistic, practical, and scalable solutions that connect processes, methods, organizational responsibilities, data, digital tools, and AI-enabled capabilities. The role drives assigned initiatives from problem definition and solution design through implementation, rollout, user adoption, and continuous improvement.
A key focus is identifying and operationalizing high-value AI use cases that improve engineering quality, speed, traceability, decision-making, and user experience across the systems engineering lifecycle, from requirements and architecture through integration, verification, validation, and release readiness for software-defined vehicle development.
Become part of an iconic brand that is set to revolutionize the electric pick-up truck & rugged SUV marketplace by achieving the following:
- Drive assigned PMT roadmap initiatives from gap analysis and target-state design through implementation, adoption, and continuous improvement.
- Work with cross-functional stakeholders, including Engineering, Manufacturing, Product Management, Quality, and IT, to capture requirements and translate them into scalable end-to-end engineering process and digital solutions.
- Partner with IT, data and AI teams, platform owners, and implementation partners to pilot, evaluate, configure, integrate, test, deploy, and scale R&D digital solutions, including AI-enabled capabilities.
- Collect, structure, clarify, and prioritize business requirements, AI and automation use cases, data needs, and implementation priorities for inclusion in the engineering digital-solutions roadmap.
- Support alignment with Volkswagen Group processes and systems, including the definition and documentation of interfaces between Scout and Group solutions.
- Configure, maintain, and improve engineering workflow and issue-management solutions, including Jira-based applications and databases.
- Provide user support, troubleshooting, guidance, and training organization for implemented engineering and Group systems.
- Maintain process descriptions, work instructions, governance documentation, system specifications, training materials, and evidence required for audits. Apply systems-engineering principles to improve consistency and traceability across requirements, architecture, integration, verification, validation, issue management, change management, and release readiness.
- Support auditable compliance of implemented processes and systems, including implementation and maintenance of Automotive SPICE process requirements applicable to Scout.
Key Deliverables
- Approved process descriptions, methods, standards, work instructions, and governance documentation.
- Clear business and system requirements, gap analyses, functional concepts, and implementation specifications.
- Configured, tested, and operationalized engineering workflows, tool features, integrations, issue-management solutions, and AI-enabled capabilities.
- Training materials, user guidance, support documentation, and stakeholder communications.
- Compliance and audit evidence for assigned processes and systems.
- Improvement proposals supported by user feedback, process analysis, and operational data, including prioritized AI and automation use cases with clear value, data requirements, evaluation criteria, human decision points, and implementation recommendations.
Collaboration and Interfaces
- Partner with R&D functions and other departments to understand needs and establish consistent, usable ways of working.
- Collaborate closely with IT on system architecture, interfaces, implementation, releases, access, and operational support.
- Coordinate with Volkswagen Group counterparts, external suppliers, and implementation partners on assigned process and tool topics.
- Escalate risks, dependencies, unresolved requirements, and implementation constraints to the PMT Manager or responsible governance body.
