• Translate complex system-level requirements and engineering tradeoffs into compelling product strategies and requirements.
• Develop business cases for new products and present recommendations to executive leadership.
• Lead product concept definition and support the NPI process from initial requirements through product launch.
• Evaluate competitive products, technologies, architectures, and relevant form factors.
• Manage product-line financial performance, including revenue, cost, profitability, and investment priorities.
• Partner closely with engineering to define product requirements, technical differentiation, and development priorities.
• Work with sales, customers, and partners to understand market requirements and identify new opportunities.
