Job Description
Fab Sort Manufacturing (FSM) is responsible for the production of all Intel silicon using some of the world's most advanced manufacturing processes in fabs in Arizona, Ireland, Israel, Oregon and 2 new greenfield sites in Ohio and Germany. As part of Intel's IDM2.0 strategy, FSM is rapidly expanding its operation to deliver output for both internal and foundry customers with state-of-the-art technologies arriving in High-Volume Manufacturing (HVM) at a 2-year cadence going forward. Intel recently created HVM Global Yield organization in FSM to strengthen its yield operation and enable fast-paced yield ramp-up in early HVM phases for each technology in collaboration with Technology Development team and FSM fab managers.
This job requisition is to seek for Defect Metro Development engineering roles in FSM HVM Global Yield organization, reporting to Defect Metro Engineering Development manager. Selected candidates will work with other members in defect metro team, other teams in Global Yield org, fab module, yield, integration and TD team members to achieve yield ramp-up and defect reduction in early production stage, supporting internal and external customers.
Collaborate with Technology Development team and Process Integration team to import and setup new technology to production fabs across the globe.
Identify critical yield limiting defect steps and work with Defect Control team to set production line inspection strategy to protect yield and quality at maximum productivity and lowest cost.
Candidate should possess the following behavioral skills:
Problem-solving and project/program management experience with strong self-initiative and self-learning capabilities.
Demonstrated interpersonal skills to perform at leadership role including influencing, engaging, and motivating.
Proven track record of working across organization through matrix structures to accomplish strategic objectives with conflicting priorities.
Must demonstrate strong communication skills.
Qualifications
(*Job grade will be determined based on applicants’ experience level and qualification)
Minimum qualifications are required to be initially considered for this position. Preferred qualifications are in addition to the minimum requirements and are considered a plus factor in identifying top candidates.
Minimum Qualifications:
