The candidate will be expected to gather and analyze industry information, develop financial models, and write comprehensive reports on the Semis-Autos sector and the companies under coverage. The ability to communicate investment ideas and industry insights effectively to both the internal sales team and external investors is essential for success in this role. Key responsibilities include building dynamic industry models that integrate Income Statement, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow Statements.

Effective oral communication skills, organizational abilities, and time management skills are also important.
