Advanced Packaging Supplier Technology Development Program Manager

Intel Intel · Semiconductors · Arizona, Phoenix, United States

Program Manager for Advanced Packaging technology, focusing on supplier capacity expansion and qualification to meet foundry customer demand for EMIB-T technology. Requires project management, technical risk assessment, and supplier management skills.

What you'd actually do

  1. Scoping / Planning - HVM process flow finalization and process tool requirements definition with the TD team and the supplier. Tool selection and production line qualification planning so as to minimize ramp risk and meet certification requirements. Existing and, as necessary, new factory planning / layout to maximize yield and new capacity in the minimum time within budget. Update plans as necessary or as contingencies for customer / technical / volume requirements changes.
  2. CapEx Project Execution through Production Ramp - on-time execution of management-aligned capacity expansion plans through systematic processes. Create and drive yield-enabling/yield-improvement plans. Drive qualification activities and closely monitor ramp indicators to insure incident-free production ramp of new capacity. Anticipate and quickly resolve technical and logistical problems that would risk quality or on-time delivery of committed capacity. Development and maintenance of supplier milestone progress dashboards to focus resources and keep projects on-track.
  3. Capability Transfer - Where necessary, facilitate technical capability transfer from internal pilot manufacturing line to supplier capacity expansion line. Assess supplier knowledge gaps relative to technical and schedule requirements to create and drive gap closure / risk mitigation plans.
  4. Regular updates to management / stakeholders on progress and risk mitigation activities.
