The position carries ultimate accountability for the mechanical scope's safety, schedule, quality, and budget from tool arrival to final factory handover.

Role and Responsibilities

Here’s What You’ll Be Responsible For:

Serve as the central point of contact and primary liaison for the mechanical hookup team in high-level foundry executive, client, and tool vendor alignment meetings.

Define and manage the strict boundaries between base-build utility infrastructure and tool-specific point-of-connection (POC) hookups to prevent scope gaps or overlap.

Own and resolve critical engineering, scheduling, resource, and cross-functional conflicts between competing trades and tool owners.

Monitor financial performance, manage cash flow forecasting, review change orders, and track earned value management (EVM) for the mechanical scope.

Partner with the master scheduling team to align mechanical installation sequences with aggressive Tool In-Fab (TIF) and Tool Install Ready (TIR) milestones.
