Provide clear technical ownership of assigned processes and equipment sets. Plan and execute major process-development and process-integration. Design and execute structured experiments and analyse the resulting process, metrology and electrical data. Define, document and maintain process specifications, operating windows, design rules and structural and electrical requirements. Support the transfer of new technologies and products from R&D into manufacturing, including qualification and production ramp-up. Identify and implement process improvements relating to capability, yield, quality, cycle time, cost and equipment utilisation. Establish robust process-control strategies, including appropriate qualification checks, inline measurements, control limits and statistical process control charts. Monitor process performance and lead structured investigations into process deviations, defects and excursions. Develop and maintain technical documentation, including operating specifications, product-introduction reports, FMEAs, OCAPs, control plans and qualification reports. Provide effective technical communication through reports, presentations, production updates and cross-functional reviews. Support and provide technical guidance to shift personnel and other engineering teams as required.
