- Leading cross-functional project teams and coordinating with engineering, production, and testing
- Regularly reporting on project status (timeline, budget, risks, milestones)
- Ensuring adherence to schedule, budget, and contractual commitments
- Driving key decisions, handling changes, and managing escalations
- Occasional business travel for project kick-offs or key customer meetings
Requirements
