Orchestrate joint customer evaluations and technical proof-of-concept (PoC) trials alongside field application engineers.

4. Cross-Functional R&D & Product Strategy Alignment

Gather and synthesize real-time voice-of-customer (VoC) feedback from semiconductor production floors.
Collaborate closely with Galatek's global R&D and manufacturing teams to align customer requirements with product development roadmaps and system upgrades.
