  • You understand the semiconductor technological processes and you know how to transfer new technological modules to volume manufacturing.
  • You have a solid understanding of the compute industry landscape and trends. You understand the key value drivers of end-users and can identify and articulate a differentiated value proposition for an emerging technology in that space.
  • You are familiar with emerging memory concepts and the process to bring them to the market. You're able to relate the performance of the memory to the performance of the system.
  • Experience in a start-up is a strong advantage.
  • You have been working with partners around the world; fluent in English, written and spoken. Knowledge of French and Dutch is an advantage.
