THE CHALLENGE
The world’s most advanced provider of full stack system solutions for automotive architecture and autonomous driving engaged us to help them drive their business-critical autonomous driving programs. Miramar was briefed to identify and hire a legitimate technology executive with ten plus years of experience in a scarce market with the objective of escalating the technical and customer-facing dialogue and execution.
THE SOLUTION
Through a platform of projects harnessing Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, we augmented our network into level 4/5 Autonomous Driving technologists across a blend of pureplay mobility providers, progressive tier one suppliers, OEM’s and academic institutions. The brief was extremely specific and tested with avid rigour, which demanded the strategy to transcend familiar and uncharted territories across the three major global regions.
THE RESULT
- In four weeks a shortlist of five candidates were selected from a global pool of less than 100 people qualified for the role
- Invaluable Autonomous Driving market data was harvested, along with key competitor executive bench strength tested.
- A bona fide Autonomous Driving Technologist with a demonstrable track record in large scale program execution and customer group technical management was delivered in nine weeks
Our work was successful in supporting and road mapping our client’s approach to innovation, customer engagement and technology for Autonomous Driving from an external perspective. Internally it has delivered expertise that will enhance the development of their global software engineering talent and attraction capabilities.
