CTV Process Ownership and Coordination
Own the CTV lifecycle in Asia from design kick-off through build, validation and delivery, and keep it aligned with the global standard workflow maintained with the Lisle coordinator.
Control CTV inventory end to end — bare boards, connectors, cables, assembled vehicles and known-good units — with accurate records of quantity, revision, location, ownership and disposition.
Track and document every CTV build, covering material sourcing, assembly status, test results and final disposition.
Ensure contract manufacturers and SMT vendors follow validated processes and prevent the use of down-rev or unqualified components.
Apply inspection checkpoints such as CT scan, X-ray and continuity probing to confirm assembly quality before test.
Manage logistics of PCB, connector and cable handling between Dongguan, Lisle, contract manufacturing partners and the reliability and SI laboratories.
Submit and track Jira requests for SMA attachment, CT scan, SI lab testing and related laboratory services, and drive them to closure.
Drive root cause analysis and rework plans for failed CTVs, closing the loop with the Reliability Test Laboratory, PDE and the contract manufacturer.
Maintain clear documentation of CTV configurations, test coverage and quality metrics, and support standardization of test fixtures, mate assurance features and debug workflows.
Dashboards and Project Analytics
Design, build and maintain dashboards that track project issues, CTV build status and testing progress, and keep them current as the single source of truth for the team.
Define the data sources, update cadence and key metrics behind each dashboard, drawing on Jira, SAP, test records and the product development schedule.
Maintain an issue log that captures open project issues with owner, severity, root cause status and target closure date, and escalate ageing items.
Publish regular status to PM, SI, PDE and leadership covering CTV status, testing progress, blockers and recovery plans.
Use dashboard data to identify recurring failure modes and process gaps and propose improvements to the CTV and product development workflow.
Product Development Project Leadership
Act as the PDE project coordinator on assigned new product development projects, managing cost, quality and timing against the project plan.
Coordinate and collaborate with cross-functional teams through project planning and execution and monitor key product design qualification milestones.
Proactively identify, document and execute risk reduction activities that limit cost, quality and timing risk.
Communicate project status clearly to stakeholders and raise barriers early so management support can be secured.
Advocate team adherence to the Product Development Process and related procedures and maintain planned and actual schedules for problem investigation and troubleshooting.
Perform other related duties as assigned by Management.
