You will collaborate across engineering, operations, sourcing, marketing, finance, and sales while influencing decisions through technical credibility and data. This fully remote position offers broad strategic visibility and the opportunity to strengthen analytical frameworks used for long-term technology and business decisions.

Develop and maintain quantitative models grounded in HDD architecture, physics, component behavior, and system-level interactions, ensuring analytical outputs accurately reflect real-world technical and manufacturing conditions. Incorporate cost estimates, sourcing considerations, technology constraints, engineering tolerances, manufacturing flows, and production realities into models spanning sourced components through final assembly and shipment. Create forecasts incorporating nominal expectations, sensitivities, and scenario analyses based on HDD market conditions, customer requirements, product designs, and factory assumptions. Analyze how technology choices influence factory throughput, scrap, production bottlenecks, test coverage, and long-term cost efficiency. Build detailed, bottom-up HDD cost models covering mechanical, magnetic, electronic, and production components and processes. Lead competitive cost teardowns, cost modeling, and scenario analysis, maintaining and continuously improving competitive cost analysis frameworks. Evaluate differences between competing HDD technologies and translate those differences into implications for cost, performance, sourcing, market positioning, and overall value competitiveness. Partner with pricing teams and portfolio leaders to provide technical insight that strengthens business, competitive, and portfolio analysis.
