NPI Program Planning and Governance - Own the overall NPI program plan, milestone schedule, deliverables, dependencies, and execution timeline from prototype through HVM release. - Define program scope, execution priorities, ownership, escalation paths, and phase-gate deliverables to ensure clear accountability across functions. - Drive regular program reviews to track progress, risks, blockers, recovery actions, and decision requirements against committed milestones. - Prepare and govern phase-gate readiness reports to support qualification release, customer commitments, and transition to high-volume manufacturing.
NPI Execution and Build Readiness - Coordinate engineering samples, qualification builds, pilot runs, and HVM readiness builds by aligning material availability, capacity, tooling, test readiness, and manufacturing resources. - Track lot movement, hold status, yield performance, cycle time, WIP health, execution risks, and build lesson learned to ensure issues are identified early and translated into preventive actions.
