Abstract

The Product Lead (PL) is the main person responsible for rolling out GVCS Prototypes. The PL reports to the Executive Director, directs the development team, evaluates design and fabrication bids, and recommends full time Machine Designers for approval by the ED. The main task involves organizing or directing Collaborative Production Runs on site at Factor e Farm - as the buildout of prototypes after a design period. The PL leads the design team up to full fabrication diagram - using the Fabrication Diagram method of development.

This role is intended to transition to Operations Manager, who will assist in recruiting the next Product Lead while transitioning to the broader task of overall project management to relieve the existing ED of this duty. The transition to Operations manager is intended to happen once the PL masters the OSE product design methodology, in order to make well-grounded technical and strategic assessments to lead the GVCS rollout.
