  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (hardware, software, product), as well as external suppliers and vendors

  • Support effective communication with internal stakeholders and customer technical teams

  • Be an active member of our interdisciplinary innovation teams, contributing to creative problem-solving and continuous improvement
