Responsibilities and Tasks:
Capacity Modeling
-Ensure tool capacity is well positioned to meet wafer output requirements at the manufacturing area level through regular area audits and reviews
-Ensure accurate capacity model through periodic audits on key workstation parameters and validation of workstation performance
-Design and/or enhance models as needed in order to provide the right accuracy or functionality
-Understand data structure and be able to manipulate, and retrieve data
-Maintain and troubleshoot planning databases
-Analyze raw data through statistical data analysis tools
-Make data driven decisions with area through decision analysis tools
-Work with Central teams and partner Fabs to understand and close the gaps in workstation performance to meet external benchmark levels
-Participate and contribute in the area alignment meetings with central teams, to understand upcoming technology changes and workstation performance against Model of Record (MOR)
Scenario Process
-Drive areas to close gaps in performance of workstations to model
-Understand the impact to the Fab by performing capacity analysis
-Identify and highlight the driver of changes in each scenarios
-Understand the opportunities to minimize capital expenditure for a given scenario, while identifying the timing of the required capital through scenario analysis
