In the role of the Equipment Engineering Manager, you will be responsible to build a team and execute the strategy for the acquisition/startup of Custom Manufacturing Equipment to meet the demand plans for New and Existing products. Your team will drive the project management, specification development, vendor selection, design, validation, and commissioning of the Manufacturing equipment in collaboration with the Manufacturing teams.
You will work with the Manufacturing Process Engineers, Operations Management, New Product Introduction engineers, Maintenance, Facilities and EHS teams to make sure that all equipment is designed, maintained and managed for maximum safety, efficiency, lifetime operation and Total Cost of Ownership.
With the fast pace of innovations in semiconductors, you must engage with staff in all functions and locations to drive deployment of assets to add capacity, meet New Product Introduction requirements and improve quality.
In this role you will:
Develop a process to meet the Plant Capacity needs for Product Introduction timelines. This includes establishing capabilities for membrane formation/cleaning, filter assembly/bonding, wet bench/cleaning, testing, and packaging/finishing equipment.
Learn from the existing factory teams and baseline current capabilities/designs to recommend changes in equipment design to improve cost, quality, reliability and safety. Use these leanings to align and drive standardization of best practices between sites.
Directly manage a team of Equipment Engineers responsible for the following:
Engage with a variety of stakeholders including, Facilities and EHS, Procurement, R&D, Maintenance and Reliability, Automation/Controls Engineering and Operations personnel to lead needed capital through the entire process – from justification to commissioning and qualification.
Apply Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Maintenance and Reliability (DfMR) principles to optimally design and build necessary equipment
- This may include chairing HAZOp assessment teams during design phase.
- Use a variety of inputs to develop a coherent specification document that clearly defines all aspects of the project.
- Manage projects to stay within timing, budget and quality constraints.
- Use core project management principles and techniques to report progress to Management team.
- Use CAD to design equipment/subcomponents and source/create fixtures to enable the assets to be used for a variety of form factors and process flows.
- Work with Engineers, Maintenance and Reliability personnel and Operations to define PM programs (including spares inventories, frequency and timing, etc) for new assets. May require the use of criticality assessments and FMEA’s in concert with the Engineering staff.
- Use plant layouts and new asset specifications to work with stakeholders to optimize the asset within the context of the Manufacturing cell area.
Define and own a site Equipment Roadmap and be the primary driver behind its delivery.
Assist with classic New Product/Process Engineering responsibilities if the business dictates. This would include troubleshooting, failure analysis, SPC, Yield improvement, etc.
Traits we believe make a strong candidate:
Mechanical / Electrical/ Chemical Engineering background at BS/MS level, accompanied by 10 plus years of industry experience in Equipment engineering, with progressive growth to higher levels of responsibility
Strong leadership and communication skills.
Enterprise and collaborative mindset
Demonstrated experience executing equipment projects and ensure the factory capacity on time and budget. Ensure no surprises.
Strong understanding of manufacturing processes, safety standards, and regulatory compliance.
Ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams and influence at various organizational levels, and across cultures globally.
Proven expertise in Developing, Standardizing, and Deploying best practices in vendor selection, equipment design and project management.
Motivated & self driven with ability to perform with minimal guidance
Your success will be measured by:
Equipment delivery to the factories/ operations measured by project quality, cost, delivery and safety.
Equipment reliability and uptime during equipment lifetime
Implementation of lessons learned into new projects
Ability to build and sustain a high performance team
Team collaboration and stakeholder satisfaction
