Résumé du poste

Lumentum is seeking a senior leader to guide product engineering across multiple InP wafer fabs. You will shape strategy, staffing, and roadmaps, drive new product introductions, and ensure manufacturing readiness for high-volume production.

You will coordinate with design, process, reliability, and quality teams to optimize yield, test, and product performance while managing costs and risk. A global, data-driven leader with strong collaboration skills is essential.

Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, materials science, physics, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, or a related technical field; an advanced technical or business degree is strongly preferred.
Typically 15 or more years of progressive experience in semiconductor, photonics, or optoelectronic product engineering, including leadership in a manufacturing environment.
Demonstrated success leading product engineering across multiple products, technologies, manufacturing sites, or geographically distributed teams.
Deep understanding of semiconductor or optoelectronic device manufacturing, epitaxy, wafer fabrication, optical and electrical test, reliability, and packaging interfaces.
Proven record of improving yield, product performance, reliability, manufacturing stability, cycle time, and cost through data-driven engineering.
Strong knowledge of new product introduction, product qualification, production ramp, configuration and change control, statistical methods, and structured problem-solving tools.
Experience building organizations, developing leaders, managing technical talent, and prioritizing resources across a complex product portfolio.
Executive-level communication skills and the ability to influence engineering, operations, quality, commercial, finance, and customer organizations.
Ability to travel regularly among wafer-fab locations, suppliers, partners, and customer sites as business needs require.

Responsabilités

Own the global product engineering strategy, operating model, staffing plan, technical roadmap, and budget for multiple InP wafer fabs.
Lead, develop, and retain product engineering leaders and technical teams responsible for new product introduction, production ramp, sustaining engineering, yield improvement, test strategy, product characterization, and cost reduction.
Define clear product ownership, decision rights, escalation paths, and performance expectations across sites.
Create a culture of technical rigor, accountability, rapid problem solving, cross-functional collaboration, and continuous improvement.
Lead the transfer of new InP-based optoelectronic products from design and development into qualified, repeatable, high-volume manufacturing.
Establish product release criteria, manufacturing readiness reviews, qualification plans, control plans, test limits, data requirements, and production ramp plans.
Ensure robust design-for-manufacturability, design-for-test, and design-for-reliability practices are incorporated early in the product lifecycle.
Coordinate product and process transfers between fabs, ensuring equivalency, documentation, change control, risk management, and customer requirements are addressed.
Own product yield, electrical and optical performance, test yield, outgoing quality, product reliability, and cost improvement roadmaps.
Drive structured problem solving using statistical process control, design of experiments, fault isolation, root-cause analysis, failure analysis, and corrective and preventive action methods.
Lead cross-functional improvement programs addressing wafer-level variation, device performance, defectivity, parametric yield, test coverage, reliability margins, and product cost.
Establish methods to correlate epitaxy, wafer fabrication, wafer-level test, die-level test, packaging, final test, and field performance data.
Ensure product specifications, guard bands, screening methods, and test limits are technically justified and aligned with customer and reliability requirements.
Standardize product engineering processes, metrics, data systems, documentation, and technical reviews across manufacturing sites while accounting for site-specific capabilities.
Chair regular product performance, yield, quality, reliability, and manufacturing readiness reviews with fab and functional leaders.
Develop capacity and resource plans aligned with product demand, technology roadmaps, fab capabilities, and business priorities.
Partner with operations and process engineering to resolve constraints, improve cycle time, reduce variability, and sustain production continuity.
Provide executive-level visibility into product risks, recovery plans, customer impacts, investment needs, and business tradeoffs.
Serve as the senior technical interface for critical product performance, yield, quality, reliability, and customer escalation matters.
Partner with Quality to ensure compliance with applicable quality management systems, product qualification requirements, change-control processes, and customer-specific standards.
Support product portfolio decisions with fact-based assessments of technical readiness, manufacturing risk, yield, cost, capital requirements, and lifecycle economics.
Work with commercial and program teams to translate customer requirements into executable product and manufacturing plans.
Protect intellectual property and ensure disciplined handling of technical, customer, and manufacturing information.
