Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the development, standardization, benchmarking, and continuous improvement of FE ME operation/equipment metrics, capacity readiness processes, business processes, and BKMs across all sites.
  • Govern Fab Manufacturing Engineering operational ground rules and ensure consistent alignment of methodologies, metrics, and best practices globally.
  • Act as a global/area technical SME to optimize area operations, systems integration, and digital ecosystem adoption, driving global standardization and systemization of BKMs into long‑term ME blueprints.
  • Facilitate WW ME forums, area network meetings, and sustain/audit existing global BKMs and business processes.
  • Analyze line performance, equipment utilization, OEE, workstation/block WPD, and capacity readiness using Theory of Constraints and Lean Manufacturing.
  • Proactively drive area efficiency improvement by deep‑diving into root causes of equipment availability losses, operating losses, and baseline capability gaps—partnering with Site Manufacturing, Process, Equipment, and SIC teams.
  • Forecast potential roadblocks in constraint workstation management and work with Site Manufacturing Managers to create mitigation plans.
  • Lead proof‑of‑concepts and deployment of automation solutions, scheduling enhancements, BKM dashboards, and digital reporting to improve fab productivity.
  • Govern global change processes and drive scheduling system improvements that enhance predictability, agility, and performance.
  • Build a motivating environment that strengthens team engagement and enables members to reach their fullest potential.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree in Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or related technical field (or equivalent experience).
