This role serves as a critical link between Process Engineering, Equipment Engineering, NPI teams, and RDA, ensuring monitoring strategies are technically sound, actionable, and scalable to high-volume manufacturing (HVM).You will work closely with Site and Global RDA, Process, Equipment, Automation, and IT teams to drive continuous improvement in equipment capability, process robustness, and manufacturing readiness.Job Responsibilities:Integrates AI-assisted tools and insights into daily work to improve efficiency, quality, or effectiveness, exercising sound judgment and complying with organizational standards and legal requirements.Contributes to a culture of continuous improvement by identifying, testing, and sharing AI-enabled enhancements within one’s scope of work.Identify, Select, and Deliver RDA Solutions to Support Process and Equipment PerformanceDevelop and sustain RDA monitoring strategies aligned to advanced packaging process requirements and equipment behaviorTranslate process and equipment knowledge into effective Statistical Process Control (SPC), Fault Detection & Classification (FDC), and RDA rules, alarms, and diagnosticsIdentify equipment-related process sensitivities, interactions, and failure modes, particularly during NPI and early rampDrive improvements in tool stability, repeatability, and process window control through data-driven insightsSupport deployment and tuning of new RDA capabilities, scripts, dashboards, and automation logic for new tools and package typesEnsure monitoring strategies evolve appropriately as NPI transitions to HVMSupport Process and Equipment Readiness for NPI, Pilot, and Ramp ActivitiesPartner with Process and Equipment Engineers to support tool bring-up, qualification, and stabilization using RDA insightsEnsure critical process and equipment parameters are monitored effectively during NPI and pilot phasesProvide technical input to NPI readiness reviews, risk assessments, and ramp decision checkpointsSupport rapid root cause analysis and corrective actions for equipment- or process-driven ExcursionsValidate monitoring coverage and effectiveness for new equipment platforms and process flowsDrive, Improve and Maintain Equipment and Process Performance MetricsAnalyze equipment and process performance metrics such as availability, stability, excursion rate, and recovery effectivenessUse RDA and manufacturing data to identify chronic issues, systemic gaps, and improvement opportunitiesSupport MTTR reduction, tool performance optimization, and process capability improvement initiativesProvide data-driven recommendations to improve equipment reliability and process robustnessEnsure accurate documentation and traceability of issues, actions, and improvementsCollaborating on Continuous Improvement and StandardizationWork closely with Site and Global RDA teams to standardize monitoring approaches across tools, processes, and sitesCollaborate with Equipment, Process, and NPI teams on continuous improvement projects and technology transitionsProvide technical guidance on RDA best practices from a process and equipment perspectiveParticipate
