- Analyze product and technology mix scenarios to support network and site optimization across both internal and external manufacturing locations.
- Partner with Manufacturing teams to evaluate capital investment requirements that support demand growth, while identifying opportunities for tool cross-utilization to mitigate stranded asset risk and improve capital efficiency.
- Lead and coordinate multisource qualification initiatives to strengthen supply continuity and reduce operational risk.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with Operations, Supply Chain Planning, Business Units, Finance, and Manufacturing teams to deliver best-in-class customer service and operational performance.
- Analyze loading plans by comparing near-term wafer start commitments against business forecasts, identifying opportunities to improve capacity utilization and operational efficiency.
- Ensure demand mix changes are reviewed, supply-vetted, and effectively communicated to key stakeholders to support informed decision-making.
- Identify, diagnose, and implement end-to-end supply chain improvement opportunities that enhance responsiveness, efficiency, and scalability.
- Lead process improvement initiatives that drive planning excellence, operational efficiency, and business effectiveness.
- Partner with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless transitions from New Product Introduction (NPI) through high-volume manufacturing.
- Serve as the subject matter expert (SME) for assigned manufacturing sites, providing data-driven insights and presenting recommendations to senior leadership.
