Project Manager

As the person responsible for overseeing the entire project from receipt of order to final delivery, the project manager puts together the project team and facilitates project execution with a focus on QCD management.

System Engineer

System engineers are in charge of system design, proposals, and performance verification testing to ensure the optimization of the entire submarine cable system. In addition, they take the lead in providing technical support to customers and facilitating internal coordination of technological matters.

Sales

In addition to leading sales and marketing activities, project structuring, and bidding activities for the global market, sales representatives are responsible for contract negotiations in coordination with NEC’s legal and accounting divisions. Once an order has been finalized, they negotiate contract changes and carry out billing and payment follow-up duties with customers.

Cable-Laying Engineer

Cable-laying engineers develop and implement construction plans as well as coordinate with customers and contractors in regard to submarine cable route design, marine surveys, and cable-laying work. They may also supervise onsite management aboard cable-laying vessels.

Development

Developers are responsible for carrying out the technological development of all the equipment comprising submarine cable systems, including submersible equipment (repeaters, branching units) and line terminal equipment (transmission equipment, EMS, power feed equipment). They may also support customers throughout the project by performing design reviews and technical demonstrations.

Production Control

As a liaison between the project execution team and the factory producing submarine repeaters and terminal station equipment—the primary components of submarine cables—personnel engaged in production control devise optimal production plans and engage in production management to ensure delivery in accordance with the customer’s requirements.
