• Strong ability to engage in technical discussions with experts on areas such as memory subsystems, interconnects, I/O subsystems (PCIe, USB, display/graphics interfaces), and power/thermal constraints, and to understand their market implications.
• Demonstrated experience in defining market requirements and communicating technical value propositions for complex compute systems.
• Capability to guide teams on competitive analysis, market sizing, and technology trend identification.
• Excellent cross‑functional communication and presentation skills to influence senior executive teams, internal stakeholders, and external partners on technology direction and strategy.
