SS&P - Product Lifecycle Management Project Lead - Tainan

In the early phases, you have to understand the proto and pilot plan and their different configurations to be able to plan and report on the timely definition and completeness of bill of material and timely release of design documentation. Your project plan is the guardrail for a team of Project Coordinators managing their project deliverables and your consolidated view of the Product as a whole.

Introducing new products to customer sites requires a balanced spare part and tool stocking strategy – taking into account inventory cost and customer service. Next, systems at customers can get product enhancements or upgrades to newer configurations and return materials are being re-used. As an interface between Development and Supply chain, you are preparing and planning what is needed to execute this.

Towards the volume phase, you drive for a lean supply chain and plan for design maturity and planning maturity. If (new) supply chain issues arise, you are able to take this back to the right development channel via the process of issue resolution management.

You contribute to the further development of the Product Lifecycle Management Department as part of Supplier Collaboration (SC). PLM project leads take part in or lead initiatives or improvement projects on both levels of the organization.
