Summary
Ted Davidson is a Program Manager in Portland, Oregon with nine years of technical and program leadership experience focused on reliability, quality, and database integrity across manufacturing and software systems. He designs and implements quality systems and testing frameworks as a product owner, translating complex requirements into scalable database architectures and automated validation pipelines for global sites. His background as a hands-on engineer in semiconductor equipment and thin-film processes gives him uncommon depth in process control, SPC, and equipment RAM metrics that inform pragmatic, data-driven quality strategies. Ted has led cross-functional deployments, client-facing projects, and on-call support cycles, blending customer empathy with rigorous standards for schema design, performance, and regression testing. Equally comfortable mentoring teams and negotiating vendor technical scopes, he brings a track record of turning ambiguous reliability problems into auditable, operational solutions.
