• Proven experience in a leadership role within the electronics manufacturing industry
• In-depth knowledge of SMT processes, PCB design, and assembly operations
• Strong understanding of lean manufacturing principles and continuous improvement methodologies
• Excellent communication, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills
