• Conduct benchmarking and technology studies to support package roadmap and continuous improvement initiatives
• Use statistical analysis tools (e.g. Minitab/Statistica) to analyze process performance and drive data-based decisions
• Provide technical support for wire bond-related issues for both internal and external customers
• Demonstrate technical leadership in cross-site problem solving and process improvement activities
• Communicate effectively across teams, ensuring clear technical alignment and fast response to manufacturing challenges

What You Will Need

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering or an equivalent related field of study
• At least 5 years of experience in semiconductor or manufacturing environment
• Hands-on experience in FOL processes (wafer dicing, die bond, plasma, wire bond, AOI)
• Strong knowledge of wire bond packaging technologies
• Experience applying Six Sigma methodologies and statistical tools (DOE, SPC, FMEA, 8D, Minitab/Statistica)
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and data interpretation skills
