Requirements

We are looking for a technical diplomat who balances an analytical, data-driven mindset with the executive presence to navigate intense stakeholder escalations.
You are an empathetic leader who views the career growth of your engineers as a personal success metric.
You should be comfortable with "hands-on" leadership; you aren't afraid to dive into failure triage or ask the tough technical questions that drive a project to root cause.
Success in this role requires high-level organizational skills, a cool head in fast-paced/high-risk environments, and the ability to build seamless partnerships across diverse functional groups.
BS degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical/business field.

Nice To Haves

Background in electronics design and manufacturing environments, specifically focusing on server and rack-level solutions.
Proven track record of managing and developing high-performing, customer-facing technical teams.
Deep familiarity with the transition from concept through PVT and the unique quality demands of each phase.
Experience with system-level failure triage, FA engagement, and structured problem-solving methodologies.
Ability to interface effectively with ODM manufacturing partners, suppliers, customers and cross-functional internal teams in an ambiguous environment.
Interest or experience in leveraging AI tools to optimize quality workflows and drive measurable efficiency gains.
MS or MBA degree.

Responsibilities

Lead the end-to-end quality strategy for server and rack solutions, ensuring rigorous phase-gate checkpoints and factory engagements.
Take ownership of hardware failure monitoring and triage, ensuring all engineering build issues are tracked and driven to definitive root cause & corrective action.
Identify system-level quality risks early in the lifecycle, developing robust containment and recovery plans to protect the production timeline.
Build and mentor a high-performing CQE team, setting clear technical benchmarks and fostering a culture of continuous learning and career progression.
Serve as the senior voice for NPI quality in customer, supplier, and executive reviews, aligning complex build and rework schedules across the supply chain.
Establish and execute clean exit criteria to ensure the Sustaining Quality organization is positioned for success at volume production.
