Key responsibilities

• Lead productivity, yield, quality and cost improvement initiatives with global sites and suppliers, including FOAK chemistry and technology qualification and CIP development.
• Develop a roadmap for process and hardware CIP implementation and drive wet-process improvements (SWC, Bench, Scrub, Backside, Bevel).
• Work with suppliers on equipment start-up acceptance criteria and tool service requirements, and with global facilities on new tool needs.
• Benchmark tool efficiency and utilization across sites, and set up IoT sensors for defense-line strengthening in wet tools.
• Improve process conditions and technology, upgrade process capability, and enable energy savings, water conservation and waste reduction.
• Integrate AI-assisted tools into daily work and share AI-enabled improvements with colleagues.
• Troubleshoot wafer fabrication problems, perform root cause analysis and investigate defects with shift engineering and other functions.

Required profile

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering, Materials Science or a related field, or equivalent experience.
• Extensive experience in semiconductor equipment and process management in the wet process.
• Proven track record in maturing tool performance and establishing process parameters, and in abnormal analysis and project delivery.
• Experience in process and hardware improvement and development within the semiconductor industry.
• Ability to follow safety, quality and sustainability standards and to apply baseline digital fluency and role-appropriate AI literacy.
