In this role, you will sit at the intersection of engineering, marketing, and sales, transforming complex market needs into high-performance, integrated silicon solutions. You will own the product lifecycle from cradle to grave for our motor control portfolios (including BLDC, PMSM, and stepper motor drivers integrating advanced current/position sensing). If you have a passion for electrification, robotics, e-bikes, or automotive actuation systems, and possess the technical gravitas to debate architecture with design engineers and value propositions with C-level clients, we want you on our team. More specifically, you will: * Define the multi-year product roadmap for the Sense and Drive Motor Driver portfolio, aligning with global trends like automotive electrification (xEV), industrial automation, and smart robotics. * Conduct deep-dive market research, competitive analysis, and macro-economic trend mapping to identify new product vectors. * Author comprehensive Marketing Requirements Documents (MRDs) and Product Requirements Documents (PRDs) with clear technical trade-offs (e.g., RDS(on), thermal dissipation, functional safety, and integration levels). * Partner closely with IC Design, System Architecture, and Applications Engineering teams to evaluate silicon feasibility, gate-driver topologies, and sensing methodologies (e.g., shunt-based, magnetic, or inductive sensing). * Champion Functional Safety (ISO 26262 / ASIL standards) and reliability requirements (AEC-Q100) from product inception. * Work with software and tools teams to ensure a seamless "out-of-box" evaluation experience for customers (EVMs, GUI tools, and reference designs). * Own the business case for new product introductions (NPIs), including pricing strategy, gross margin analysis, and ROI. * Develop technical marketing collateral, including data sheets, application notes, competitive battle cards, and product training for global sales and field application engineers (FAEs). * Engage directly with lead customers (Tier 1 automotive suppliers and major industrial OEMs) to secure early design-ins and alpha partnerships. ## Related Videos - [Developing the Backend with Stefan Lingler, CTO at Shpock](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100360-developing-the-backend-with-stefan-lingler-cto-at-shpock) - [Model Based Systems Engineering in an Agile Product Development Process](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/68-model-based-systems-engineering-in-an-agile-product-development-process) - [Hiring Talent in Tech without Unconscious Bias](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1057-hiring-talent-in-tech-without-unconscious-bias) - [Engineering/Manager Pendulum: Generating compound interest on your career](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100348-engineering-manager-pendulum-generating-compound-interest-on-your-career) - [More efficient software for more efficient microchips](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1164-more-efficient-software-for-more-efficient-microchips) - [AR Kit intro - placing 3D objects in a scene and interacting with them in real-time](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/136-ar-kit-intro-placing-3d-objects-in-a-scene-and-interacting-with-them-in-real-time) ## Related Articles - [From developer to manager – what does it take to become an engineering manager?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/42-from-developer-to-manager-what-does-it-take-to-become-an-engineering-manager) - [How software is steering vehicle technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/515-how-software-is-steering-vehicle-technology) - [What is Software Engineering?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/289-what-is-software-engineering) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Should Tech Managers Be Developers First?
