Activities

• IoT & Embedded Systems Development: Design, build, and integrate IoT devices for commercial or industrial applications, centered around vision-based automated license plate recognition (ALPR) or customer interaction (digital signage, digital access control systems), ensuring seamless performance and reliability.
• Supplier sourcing & qualification: Identify, evaluate and onboard manufacturers and component suppliers worldwide.
• Collaborative Development: Work closely with other engineers and stakeholders to maintain high standards of quality and innovation.
• Project Management: Oversee and manage the entire lifecycle of IoT projects, from initial concept through to successful delivery, ensuring timelines and objectives are met..
• RFQs & cost analysis: Run RFQs, compare quotations on technical fit and total landed cost, and drive cost down across the BOM.
• Negotiation: Negotiate price, volume tiers, MOQ, payment terms and lead times.
• Technical specifications: Turn engineering and operations requirements into clear supplier specs, and review drawings and samples with the IoT teams.
• Supplier quality: Define acceptance criteria, manage sample and pilot orders, and make sure production matches the approved design.
• Order & supply management: Place and track orders, and manage production schedules, shipping and customs.
• Stakeholder alignment: Keep engineering, operations, warehouse and finance aligned on hardware decisions.
• Outcome Ownership: Own the outcomes of our hardware decisions end to end: availability, cost, quality and field reliability. Done means the hardware runs stably on customer sites, not that the order went out.
• Domain Stewardship: Own our hardware portfolio and supplier base. Anticipate end-of-life and supply risks early and build second sources before they become urgent.
• Technical Leadership: Act as technical lead for our hardware initiatives and make the call on technical fit, cost and risk.
