Your new responsibilities:

• Define and execute package-material strategy, technology roadmaps and portfolio priorities for polymers, encapsulants, fillers, die attach, solder/sinter, wire and interconnect, optics, substrates, leadframes, PCB/MCB, ceramics, surface/plasma technologies and packing materials.
• Own material governance and alignment. Ensure customer, product and application requirements are translated into material requirements, design rules, qualification plans and clear entry/exit criteria. Enforce consensus before roadmap entry and investment.
• Lead material scouting, feasibility, T/X projects, Q-project/PPCM execution, qualification, safe launch and transfer into stable manufacturing. Balance speed, risk, quality, manufacturability and lifecycle needs.
• Allocate engineering resources across PD, PDE/TLM, Procurement and Operations demand; establish transparent priorities, resolve overloads and drive on-time delivery of strategic programs and critical task forces.
• Build strategic supplier roadmaps; lead alternative-source and second-source scouting; guide supplier capability assessment, technical audits, FAI and risk mitigation together with Procurement and Supplier Quality.
• Provide senior technical direction for material-process-product interactions, complex failures, reliability risks, chronic issues and cross-functional 8D / RCA activities. Ensure sound use of DOE, SPC, FMEA, MSA/Gage R&R and data analytics.
• Strengthen material characterization, methodology development, cross-site correlation, modeling support, Tech Database usage, lessons learned and AI/data-enabled engineering.
• Lead, coach and develop a multidisciplinary team; clarify roles and interfaces; build succession and technical-expert pipelines; establish competency maps, training plans and knowledge-transfer mechanisms.
• Drive APAC capability growth and transfer of selected workstreams from Regensburg to Penang/Wuxi with documented handshakes, demonstrated competency and no loss of delivery or quality.
• Ensure compliance with company policies, confidentiality, IP, EHS, quality systems, automotive/customer requirements and applicable standards. Maintain traceability, document control and audit readiness for R&D material activities.
• Deliver measurable improvements in project speed, material cost, yield, quality, supply continuity and engineering productivity. Maintain KPI/BSC reviews and disciplined budget/resource management.
• Represent Material Engineering in leadership reviews, sourcing committees, project gates, supplier engagements and global roadmap forums. Communicate decisions, risks, dependencies and escalations clearly.
