Influence the direction of AV-relevant legislation on safety, infrastructure, data governance, cybersecurity, and digital mobility ecosystems. Industry & Ecosystem Leadership Represent the company in high-profile industry forums, trade associations, global mobility alliances, and standards-setting organizations. Establish the company as a thought leader in autonomous mobility, safety innovation, and next-generation transportation policy. Drive collaboration with research partners, academia, NGOs, and industry coalitions to advance shared policy goals.

Advise Senior Leadership and the CEO on market readiness, regulatory barriers, and strategic engagement opportunities. Support the Communications team in shaping the external narrative around AV safety, innovation, and regulatory collaboration. Market Intelligence & Risk Management Oversee monitoring of regulatory changes, geopolitics, and public sentiment across key markets. Conduct strategic risk assessments and scenario planning related to AV deployment and future market expansion. Provide guidance on compliance obligations across all operating jurisdictions. Qualifications & Experience 10–15+ years of senior experience in government affairs, public policy, regulatory strategy, or external affairs—preferably in transportation, mobility, technology, or highly regulated sectors. Deep expertise in European transportation and mobility regulation (e.g., EU mobility packages, UNECE vehicle regulations, General Safety Regulation, cybersecurity and data frameworks). Strong familiarity with Asian regulatory environments (e.g., Singapore LTA, Japan MLIT, UAE, or other regional AV leaders). Proven track record influencing complex regulatory landscapes and securing policy outcomes that support emerging technologies.
