Translate R&D process flows into stable, repeatable production recipes.
Optimise process parameters to achieve target yield, performance, and reliability.
Collaborate with equipment engineering teams to ensure tool matching and qualification.
Analyse process data and drive root cause analysis for yield or performance issues.
Develop and maintain process documentation, including SOPs and control plans.
Implement and monitor Statistical Process Control (SPC) to ensure process stability
Analyse process capability and drive improvements using Cp/Cpk metrics
Support pilot line builds and ramp-up activities.
Interface with external partners and suppliers for technology transfer and scale-up.
