Daily Duties at Solectron / Flextronics:

Notable achievements and key assignments in a broad range of engineering responsibilities from individual contributor to management roles in the regional, then worldwide, Design & Engineering organization, with a final assignment on the Corporate Quality leadership team, before Solectron was acquired by Flextronics in October 2007. As a result of the acquisition, became a member of the Technology Leadership Group, with primary responsibility for leading the deployment of Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) across the consolidated company.

What they like about Solectron / Flextronics:

A hiring company that offers alternative approaches to pay, performance bonuses, and/or equity in the firm is very attractive to you. You're generally less interested in working for an organization offering only traditional, salary-based compensation, one with limited opportunity to acquire equity in the firm, or one that does not actively promote skill development. In addition, you are more likely to choose a company that offers a variety of internal career options, with defined career paths. You view the learning of new skills and development of your expertise as key to your career advancement. These aspects of an organization may become even more important to you as you progress in your field, and are especially critical if you change career or occupation.
