Manager / Senior Manager, Process and Quality Control (Fab Operations), IME

Lead a team responsible for the strategic design, implementation, and continuous improvement of all quality and process control systems within Fab Operations. This role is critical for ensuring world-class product yield, reducing defectivity, and maintaining strict compliance with customer specifications, internal quality standards, and relevant industry certifications.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and drive a strategic roadmap for yield improvement and defect reduction across critical process modules.
• Lead the design and maintenance of advanced, real-time Statistical Process Control (SPC) , Fault Detection and Classification (FDC) , and Advanced Process Control (APC) systems to stabilize and optimize all fabrication steps.
• Cross-contamination management to balance research and development flexibilities in integration runsheet flow path vs process tools health and process repeatability.
• Align and set up small-volume prototype protocols and product / process control plans with requestors, achieving demonstration of product SPC repeatability and line defect and electrical yield.
• Serve as the technical expert and primary quality interface for key customers, leading customer audits, addressing quality-related concerns, and driving customer-specific quality improvement plans.
• Problem Solving : Direct and oversee high-level, cross-functional root-cause analysis (RCA) and corrective and preventive action (CAPA) teams for major process excursions, non-conformances, and field returns, utilizing methodologies like 8D or Six Sigma.
• Metrology & Inspection : Oversee the selection, qualification, and maintenance of all in-line and off-line metrology and defect inspection tools, ensuring measurement system accuracy (Gage R&R) and high data quality.
• Process Window Definition : Collaborate with Process Integration and R&D teams to define, qualify, and stabilize robust manufacturing process windows for all new product introductions (NPI), ensuring Design for Manufacturability (DFM) principles are met.
• Data Analytics : Leverage large-scale manufacturing data to identify subtle process drifts, predict failures, and proactively implement controls.
• Lead, mentor, and manage a team of Quality Engineers, Process Control Engineers, and Technicians, setting performance goals, developing career paths, and fostering a culture of ownership and data-driven decision-making.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to balance the trade-offs between quality stability, process efficiency, and tool uptime.
