You will drive collaboration between Engineering disciplines, Construction, Manufacturing and Production to ensure our team’s goals are aligned with company priorities. You will work to understand the opportunities and challenges of each project, organize scattered information into a concise and complete message, document and communicate to every team member.

The team has open positions in Fremont, CA and Palo Alto, CA.
