• Operational Execution
  • Lead medium- and long-term capacity allocation across sites, fabs, and OSAT partners.
  • Identify bottlenecks, propose mitigation actions, and drive resolution with operations and engineering teams.
  • Monitor utilization, throughput, and cycle time to ensure supply continuity and customer delivery.
• Cross-Functional Leadership
  • Partner with Product Line, Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP), Finance, and Engineering to balance demand and supply.
  • Serve as the capacity subject matter expert during executive reviews, product ramp planning, and risk assessments.
  • Influence investment and sourcing decisions by providing robust capacity analyses and trade-off scenarios.
• Analytics & Systems
  • Drive digitalization of capacity planning tools and scenario modeling.
  • Leverage advanced analytics to improve forecast accuracy, identify risks, and optimize capacity buffers.
  • Establish KPIs for utilization, forecast accuracy, cycle times, and capital efficiency.

• 10+ years of experience in semiconductor operations, supply chain, or planning; minimum 5 years in capacity planning.
• Strong knowledge of both frontend (wafer fabrication, lithography, etch, deposition) and backend (assembly, packaging, test) processes.
• Proven track record in developing capacity strategies, scenario modeling, and capital investment planning.
• Expertise with planning tools (Kinaxis, Anaplan, SAP IBP, custom models, or equivalent).
• Exceptional analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills with executive presence.
