  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Facilitate alignment on testing requirements and quality standards by collaborating closely with test engineers, manufacturing engineers, failure analysis engineers and IT SFC, MFG Network and System team.
  • Risk & Task Management: Prioritize efforts, delegate activities appropriately, identify potential risks in the testing process, and develop mitigation strategies.
  • Team Growth & Career Planning: Continuously assess individual strengths and areas for improvement across the team. Work closely with each team member to create personalized growth plans, set measurable goals, and map out clear, long-term career paths.
  • Throughput & Workload Management: Actively monitor the team's workload and review project throughput. Balance task assignments based on individual capabilities (pros/cons) to optimize efficiency without causing burnout.
  • Performance Coaching: Conduct regular 1-on-1 meetings to provide constructive, actionable feedback, remove roadblocks, and guide the team through technical or operational challenges.
  • Culture & Collaboration: Foster a collaborative, inclusive, and high-performing team environment. Bridge communication between software developers, program managers, and cross-functional engineering teams to ensure unified goals.

What you bring

  • Education: Bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science, Electrical/Computer Engineering, Information Technology, or a related field.
  • Work Experience: 2 to 4 years of professional experience in software development, systems engineering, or a closely related field.
  • Leadership Experience: 3+ years of direct people management or technical team leadership experience, specifically overseeing software developers, systems engineers, or technical program managers.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
