Job description

Job Details

• Driving the factory to produce transistor and discrete electronic devices that perform according to strictly defined specifications.
• Collaborating with Module, Integration, and Yield engineers to perform process modifications to produce material that meets quality, reliability, cost, yield, and performance requirements.
• Strictly controlling the initial quality metrics at the end-of-line (EOL) in order to screen and disposition material prior to sort and class testing. Extensive analyses are performed in order to determine specific root causes of discrepant device performance.
• Continuously improving quality, reliability, cost, and yield using a feedback loop through Integration and Module engineers to address targeting, variability reduction, and containment of poorly performing line segments
• Developing solutions to challenging technical problems utilizing a combination of fundamental knowledge of solid-state physics, statistics, and formal problem-solving methodologies.
• Independently identifying improvement opportunities and driving implementation
• Summarizing complex problems using formal problem-solving strategies and communicating technical reasoning, project timelines, and help needed to senior leaders
• Engaging with senior leaders from multiple teams, such as product engineers, assembly test engineers, and technology development engineers to understand and implement process improvement opportunities.

The Ideal Candidate Would Exhibit The Following Behavioral Traits

• Highly motivated with leadership qualities
• Strong interpersonal skills with understanding of how to work with others to accomplish organizational goals
• A collaborative and inclusionary mindset
• Highly developed written and verbal communication abilities to influence a wide variety of groups at all levels of the organization
• Excellent organizational skills with a strong attention to detail
• Experience with setting goals and achieving them on schedule
• High tolerance of ambiguity in a rapidly changing, fast-paced work environment with the ability to quickly adjust priorities as necessary
• Ability to develop creative solutions to challenging problems
• Candidate must be able to effectively run meetings at all levels of the organization in order to effectively solve problems as a team and communicate progress to senior leaders
