Business Development Manager, Hosiden America Corporation - San Francisco Bay Area
The lead is in a Sales role rather than technical leadership and explicitly stated they already have a full-scale engineering team in Japan that handles their needs.
Hi! your work in AI caught my attention. I’d value your perspective on how US tech leaders are approaching flexible staff augmentation, backlog pressure, and delivery speed. Open to connect?
2026-07-17 11:29Daisuke, saw you recently took over as Sales Manager at Hosiden America. When tech and hardware companies scale their commercial side, engineering bandwidth often becomes the bottleneck for delivering on new client demands. Are you relying purely on local Bay Area technical talent to support the roadmap right now, or bringing in outside engineering teams?
2026-07-17 18:15Thanks, Pablo. We have a full-scale engineering team in Japan with highly skilled and talented engineers who support our development activities. We don't rely on the local Bay Area talent pool, as it doesn't really align with our engineering needs.
2026-07-17 19:03That makes perfect sense. With your engineering team in Japan, do you ever run into timezone bottlenecks when supporting local US accounts? We help companies complement their overseas teams with LatAm engineers operating in US hours. Curious if that ever comes up?
2026-07-19 19:19Noticed your track record moving from Canon to SMK and now Hosiden. In the hardware component space having core engineering overseas is standard. Some sales leaders I speak with find that local US technical support becomes a bottleneck for rapid prototyping. When you manage large accounts in the Bay Area how do you handle quick technical iterations with the overseas team?
