• Experience coordinating OEMs/contract manufacturers through NPI and ramp.
• Ability to operate in a high-ambiguity startup environment.
• Ability to translate technical risk into executive-level clarity.

Responsabilidades

• Own the hardware integrated master schedule (IMS) and drive EVT to DVT readiness.
• Coordinate system integration milestones and align hardware freeze with AI/controls needs.
• Track long-lead items, tooling readiness, and cross-subsystem dependencies.
• Align actuator development and torque sensor calibration plans.
• Ensure EtherCAT network readiness and compute integration.
• Coordinate DFM workshops and manage EVT/DVT builds with low-volume NPIs.
