Influences architecture definition for product differentiation, cost reduction and/or performance improvements. Will also influence decision makers in a matrixed environment across business units. Aligns suppliers to Intel long term roadmap. Responsible for device across product life cycle. Plans and schedules daily tasks, develops solutions to problems utilizing formal education and judgment based on standard practices. Ability to work independently. Must have excellent written and oral communication skills.

Desired Skills and Experience

-Solid understanding of PC and mobile device architecture, along with sensor component applications.
-Minimum of a Bachelor's Degree in relevant engineering or sciences branch
-Minimum of 6 years industry experience, Masters 4 years, or PhD 2 years in light sensors, IR sensors, fingerprint sensors, bio-authentication sensors and/or other sensor applications/design within mobile/wearable platforms.

Kind of a very odd group of sensors, not the ones most would pick. 
-Sensor fusion algorithms experience relevant to mobile/wearable systems a plus
-Experience integrating sensors into consumer electronics devices, including firmware and software integration is a plus
-Experience managing 3rd party suppliers is a plus.
