Thomas Lin

I received my master's degree in Mechanical Engineering in 2000. After school, my first job was as advanced program purchasing analyst and involved total cost management at Ford Motor Company (FLH) in Taiwan. My main duties at Ford were monitoring operations of Ford's downstream companies and helping them stay strong both financially and technically amid a slow-down in the economy.

Later on, I earned some working experience at Vodcom Corp in Pasadena, California. Vodcom designs, manufactures and markets electrical interconnect components for international customers. In 2004, I joined Wistron NeWeb Corp (WNC), where I worked in pre-sales and project management on wireless solutions and products.

From the experiences & involvements in general, I can summarized them as below: (1) My enthusiasm in pursuing professionalism and integration of resources across different business units and organizations to meet customer needs. (2) I commit to achieve or exceed goals, either assigned or job oriented. (3) I am eager to learn continuously and improve to stay competitive in the turbulent market or environments. (4) Communication & coordination; the capability of analyzing issues (5) Combine work & life; work with a group & grow up together. I have been worked with several type of products involve with wireless, telecommunication, multimedia, industrial control device products for worldwide customers in the project management & various sales job functions at the same time since 20 years ago. I am always seeking opportunities to further my understanding and improve my skills in high-technology and global business environments.

Hopefully, my experience, positive & aggressive mid-set and skill-set can be of great values to the company I work for, as well as to my colleagues. As a quick learner, working in an industry-leading company is always my first priority. If given the opportunity, I am eager and determined to do my best to help take your company to the next level.
