Responsibilities

  • Develop and own wafer start plans aligned with demand forecasts, fab capacity, and strategic priorities.
  • Build and maintain detailed capacity models incorporating:
  • Identify bottlenecks and drive corrective actions to improve throughput and cycle time.
  • Perform scenario analysis to evaluate trade-offs between utilization, cycle time, and service levels.
  • Analytics & Decision Support
  • Develop advanced models to estimate cycle time, throughput, and capacity
  • Partner with local and overseas operations, engineering, supply chain, and finance teams to align plans.
  • All subject to relevant plan documents and award agreements.
