We are seeking a visionary and technically formidable Vice President – BU Head, Motor & Robotics Business for a leading ODM/EMS company. This is a newly created position for the future expansions, reporting directly to the CEO. The ideal candidate possesses a deep-rooted pedigree in mechanical engineering—specifically within high-performance motion control—and has successfully transitioned from the lab to the boardroom. You will own the P&L, drive the product roadmap, and lead a multidisciplinary team to deliver the critical parts for tomorrow’s robots.
Responsibilities
• Establish the New Business Unit that focuses on designing and developing the critical components for Robotics (such as Motors and High-Precision Planetary Gearboxes). Provide engineering & operational leadership, including product roadmap, strategic planning, resources allocation, budgeting, forecasting, etc.
• Product Lifecycle Ownership: Oversee the entire lifecycle of robotics components, with a specialized focus on the commercialization of high-torque density motors and high-precision planetary gearboxes.
• R&D Oversight: Direct the engineering teams in solving complex challenges related to backlash minimization, thermal management, and power-to-weight ratios in electromechanical actuators.
• Operational Excellence: Manage the BU’s P&L, ensuring healthy margins while maintaining aggressive investment in disruptive R&D.
• Partnership & Ecosystem Building: Identify and negotiate strategic partnerships with CMOS sensor providers, AI software firms, and Tier-1 manufacturing partners.
