Title: Partner – Sector Expert (Electronics, Power Electronics & Semiconductor Manufacturing) – Blue Genes Research
Location: Flexible (India) | Part-time, Strategic Role
About Blue Genes Research (BGR)
Blue Genes Research is a boutique executive search and leadership advisory firm focused on capital-intensive manufacturing and industrial businesses. For over two decades, BGR has helped founders, promoters, and investors de-risk CXO and site-head hiring in complex, high-growth sectors.
With India accelerating investments in electronics manufacturing, power electronics, and semiconductor ecosystems under national missions and PLI schemes, BGR is building a Sector Partner Network and is looking for a Partner – Sector Expert (Electronics, Power Electronics & Semiconductor Manufacturing) .
The Role
This is a part-time, strategic, non-operational role for a senior leader from the electronics / power electronics / semiconductor ecosystem who wants to:
- Stay at the centre of India’s electronics and semiconductor build-out without taking a full-time corporate role
- Work directly with promoters, boards, and CXOs of manufacturing companies, OSAT/ATMP units, design-led firms, and power electronics players
- Monetize sector insight, relationships, and judgment in a focused, founder-led boutique platform
The selected Partner will work closely with BGR’s Founder & CEO and the internal research team.
Key Responsibilities
- Act as a sector face for BGR in Electronics, Power Electronics & Semiconductor Manufacturing (including EMS/ODM, components, power electronics, OSAT/ATMP, and allied manufacturing)
- Open doors and make warm introductions to promoters, MDs, CEOs, BU Heads, Site Heads, and CHROs in this ecosystem
- Co-shape critical mandates such as MD, CEO, COO, Plant/Site Head, Fab/OSAT Head, Head of Operations, Engineering, Quality, Supply Chain, and key technical leadership roles
- Bring practical sector insight into role design, candidate evaluation, and final selection, especially around technology maturity, yield, reliability, and global customer expectations
- Participate in selected client meetings, reviews, and strategic discussions
- Help conceptualize sector-specific offerings such as leadership for greenfield fabs/OSAT plants, scale-up leadership for PLI-backed expansion, and interim/fractional leadership solutions
This is not a traditional sales or delivery role. It is a relationship, judgment, and sector credibility role.
Ideal Profile
This role is best suited for a senior professional who has:
- 15–25+ years in electronics manufacturing, power electronics, semiconductor manufacturing (front-end or back-end), OSAT/ATMP, or closely related domains
- Experience as MD, CEO, COO, Business/BU Head, Fab/OSAT Head, Site/Plant Head, or senior functional leader (Operations, Engineering, Quality, Supply Chain, Program/Technology)
- Strong credibility with promoters, boards, and CXOs in the electronics and semiconductor ecosystem
- Deep understanding of manufacturing, technology ramps, supply chain, quality, reliability, and global customer requirements
- A preference for a sharp, founder-led, high-trust platform over a large generic consulting setup
- Bandwidth for approximately 8–12 hours per month on a flexible basis
Prior executive search experience is not required. Sector depth, credibility, and leadership judgment matter more.
Engagement Structure
- Part-time, strategic engagement
- Retainer plus performance-linked upside
- Flexible working model with no fixed office requirement
- Commercial details to be discussed confidentially with shortlisted candidates
