RESPONSIBILITIES

• </b></br><div>
• <li>
• Own and drive reliability strategy across New Product Introduction (NPI), in-market monitoring (ORT/ Field Reliability), and continuous improvement initiatives, ensuring alignment with program risk and launch readiness
• </li>
• <li>
• Define reliability requirements, targets, and validation strategies (e.g., DVT success criteria, AFR targets), ensuring products meet predictable launch outcomes and achieve reliability within defined thresholds
• </li>
• <li>
• Identify, assess, and mitigate reliability risks early through structured methodologies (DFMEA, HALT, accelerated testing), achieving high coverage of critical failure modes prior to launch
• </li>
• <li>
• Translate use cases and field conditions into system-level test strategy and execution plans (Test Protocols), ensuring no major unknown failure modes escape into market
• </li>
• <li>
• Analyze reliability data to generate actionable insights (AFR, CoUR, TWR), influencing cross-functional decisions across design, manufacturing, and supply chain
• </li>
• <li>
• Lead root cause investigations and corrective actions for test and field failures, driving resolution of top issues and enabling sustained product performance without regression
• </li>
• <li>
• Partner with internal teams and external suppliers to standardize reliability practices, scale test capabilities, and ensure consistent execution across global partners
• </li>
