Lead continuous improvement initiatives to refine operational processes and team coordination. Proactively identify and resolve architectural or organizational blockers, managing risk and maintaining relentless progress from initial exploration to customer acceptance. Identify execution risks, lead risk mitigation plans, and drive trade-off decisions across scope, schedule, resources, and quality About the team: This role is part of the operations team, partnering closely with our cross-functional engineering teams in System & Product and Memory Design.
