Suas Responsabilidades

• Make and own project decisions within defined authority thresholds and escalate to governance (ISC / SPOC / ComEx) with a ready-to-decide solution and its trade-off whenever those thresholds are exceeded.
• Understand and champion Ceva's strategic, competitive and customer context to explain why the developed product matters (competitor differentiation, customer convenience…), anticipate its business impact, and connect decisions to product range and portfolio value and evolution (vaccination schemes…). Act as a source of proposals on these matters.
• Demonstrate foresight across the entire project lifecycle, from development through commercialization, ensuring alignment with market needs and business objectives.
• Communicate in a clear, concise, logical transparent and timely manner to foster understanding and enable decision making. Communicate project status and recommend trade-off decisions directly and credibly at governance forums (ISC, SPOC, and ComEx when relevant) and within project team. Adapt communication and leadership style to the audience.
• Build, lead and develop the cross-functional project team; delegate real ownership of workstreams and actively support team members' growth. Participate to objective setting and assessment of project team members.
• Drive continuous improvement, adaptability and change: challenge existing practices, foster a test-and-learn mindset for innovation and turn learnings into standards reused beyond the project.
  
  

Project Management

• Structure and own the project plan (scope, WBS, sequencing, critical path, timeline, scorecard, KPI…) and keep it current in the corporate PM tool.
• Proactively manage risks, opportunities, issues and changes; anticipate deviations and propose corrective action and their trade-offs before being asked.
• Champion the use of digital and AI-enabled tools to strengthen forecasting, planning and reporting, and to reduce manual effort.

• Conduct a regular scientific watch on internal and external advances.
• Curate an external network of expertise in the scientific area involved.
• Master the end-to-end product development lifecycle and anticipate cross-functional dependencies (regulatory, quality, manufacturing, commercial) before they are raised by others and propose solutions with related probability of success.
