Forecast Team Lead
We're looking for an experienced Forecast Team Lead to lead the Mobileye Sales Forecast Team. In this role, you will guide a team of forecast and business analysts, own the accuracy and quality of Mobileye's demand and commercial forecasts, and translate market, customer, and competitive dynamics into strategic, decision-ready insights for management. You will partner closely with Finance, Sales/Business Development, Operations, and Strategy to keep both our near-term outlook and longer-term planning aligned with business goals.
The ideal candidate has a problem-solving mindset and a strong analytical approach - comfortable translating complex, imperfect data into clear recommendations - and is confident leading, coaching, and developing a team while staying hands-on with the numbers. This role suits forecasting and demand-planning professionals as well as candidates coming from strategy or business-analysis backgrounds who are ready to step into people leadership.

Lead and mentor the forecast team: develop forecast and business analysts, set clear performance standards, and build a team culture that combines analytical rigor with strategic thinking.
-
Own forecast accuracy and process: oversee the creation, validation, and continuous improvement of demand, volume, and commercial forecasting models across Mobileye's portfolio.
-
Contribute to strategic and long-range planning: bring market, customer, and competitive intelligence into multi-year outlooks - including 5-year plans, and competitive strategy reviews.
-
Optimize processes and tools: identify gaps in current data collection or modeling methods, and drive automation, dashboards, and AI-assisted workflows (e.g., using Cursor, Claude, and similar tools) to make analyses and forecasting faster and more reliable.
-
Deliver reporting & insights: transform forecasting and market/competitive context into clear, management-ready recommendations and presentations for leadership.
-
Lead cross-functional forecast governance: align Sales/BizDev, Finance, Operations, and Strategy around a shared set of assumptions, and ensure market intelligence and real-time data are integrated into forecasts and planning cycles
