  • Develop and maintain integrated scope, schedules, budgets, resource plans, milestones, dashboards, risks, issues, and change controls.
  • Coordinate global electrical, mechanical, optical, touch, firmware, software, quality, sourcing, supplier, test, and manufacturing teams; clarify ownership, dependencies, decisions, and deliverables.
  • Manage customer and executive communications, design and readiness reviews, action closure, contract commitments, and timely escalation of unresolved issues.
  • Oversee PCBA workstreams, including design reviews, BOM and component readiness, prototype and NPI builds, verification, production test, yield improvement, and production transition.
  • Oversee mechanical enclosure workstreams, including materials, tooling, tolerance and fit, structural and thermal considerations, cosmetics, prototypes, and production qualification.
  • Manage box-build integration and readiness for PCBAs, displays, touch modules, enclosures, cables, firmware, calibration, final testing, traceability, labeling, packaging, and manufacturing ramp.
  • Ensure functional owners define and complete product requirements, design deliverables, compliance, reliability, and validation for touch performance, image quality, environmental, mechanical, electrical-safety, EMC, wireless, and representative-use conditions.
  • Coordinate suppliers and manufacturing teams on tooling, component availability, qualification builds, test coverage, yield, end-of-life risks, cost, and recovery plans.
  • Maintain customer satisfaction, confidentiality, and compliance with company safety, health, security, and quality procedures; perform other duties as assigned.
