Change Management: Manage changes impacting Manufacturing area to understand change impact and deployment planning.

Deployment & Scaling: Oversee the installation and bring-up of manufacturing lines at global sites, ensuring equipment meets yield, cycle time, and reliability targets.

Budget & Resource Tracking: Manage CAPEX/OPEX budgets for manufacturing development and ensure resources are allocated to the highest-priority program workstreams.

What good looks like in 6 months:

You are the recognized manufacturing voice in PD program forums for at least one active NPI program, and program leads come to you first for manufacturing readiness status.

You have built an integrated equipment and process schedule (automation, tooling, and test) tied to the master product schedule, with clear owners, dependencies, and critical path.

You have established a regular reporting cadence with KPIs (schedule, FAT/SAT status, yield and cycle-time readiness, CAPEX spend) that leadership relies on.
