• Drive continuous improvement using data, metrics, stakeholder feedback, and lessons learned across the portfolio.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Systems Engineering, or related technical field.

• 10+ years of experience in product development, systems engineering, manufacturing engineering, or technical program management within the semiconductor or electronics domain.

• Strong understanding of end-to-end product development lifecycle, including multi-domain BOMs, design handoff, configuration management, and design reuse strategies.

• Demonstrated ability to establish, optimize, or roll out enterprise-level development processes.

• Strong process orientation, with experience mapping, defining, and improving engineering workflows.

• Knowledge of Agile, Phase-Gate, or hybrid development models and how they align with PLM and lifecycle stages.

• Strong collaboration, facilitation, and communication capabilities.

• Ability to manage complex, competing requirements to drive pragmatic, business-aligned solutions.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with hardware–software co-development environments (So Cs, embedded systems, firmware, mixed-signal systems).

• Hands-on experience with PLM platforms such as Siemens Teamcenter, PTC Windchill, Dassault ENOVIA, or Arena.

• Understanding of CAD/EDA tool integration within PLM ecosystems (Cadence, Mentor/Siemens, Altium, etc.).

• Experience working with ECO/ECN processes, change management boards, or product release governance.

• Certifications in Lean, Six Sigma, or similar process improvement methodologies.

• Exposure to standards such as ISO 15288, ISO 9001, IATF 16949, ASPICE, ISO/IEC 12207, or functional safety frameworks.
