• Develop and execute a capability improvement roadmap for the MEOS team, including strategic staffing plans and targeted employee skill development initiatives.
• Foster strong cross-functional collaboration by building robust networks with Factory Operations, Equipment Engineering, Module Engineering, and Facilities Engineering teams.
• Optimize on-shift resource deployment to ensure MEOS team efforts are aligned with and maximizing value to organizational objectives.
• Build an engineering problem-solving culture within the team, developing expertise in tool health management and integrated process health to drive factory velocity across multiple First-of-Kind (FOK) tool sets.
• Invest in your team's growth through robust career development plans, engagement initiatives, and retention strategies that attract and keep top engineering talent.
