What I'm looking for
Technical Service and After-Sales Manager with more than 25 years of experience across electronics manufacturing, repair operations, PCBA diagnostics, product quality, failure analysis and technical training.

My work involves coordinating with engineering, quality, R&D, EMS providers and service partners across different countries and time zones.
Earlier in my career, I served for seven years as an IPC-A-610 Certified Trainer and trained and certified more than 200 engineers and technicians in electronic-assembly workmanship and PCBA acceptance criteria. I have also developed technical training plans, troubleshooting guides, repair procedures and competency-assessment activities for technicians and service teams.
My strongest areas are hands-on electronics troubleshooting, PCBA failure analysis, technical training, repair-center development, product quality and translating complex technical findings into practical corrective actions.
I am interested in technical service, service-lab management, technical training, failure analysis, product-quality and after-sales operations opportunities. I am based in Singapore and open to remote or regional roles, as well as relocation to Qatar.
