Overview

In this role you will bridge R&D and Manufacturing to develop, transfer, and optimize coated consumable manufacturing processes in a cleanroom. You will drive NPI industrialisation, design for manufacture input, and establish CPPs and CQAs to improve yield and process capability. You will work cross-functionally to solve production issues and implement data-driven improvements. The position offers impact across technology transfer, process control, and ongoing process optimisation within a regulated setting. You will collaborate with R&D, Quality, Supply Chain and external partners to scale and improve manufacturing workflows.

Responsibilities

Develop and transfer manufacturing-ready processes with R&D for new products
Lead or support technology transfer and NPI industrialisation with DM input
Define CPPs and CQAs
Develop, optimise and control coating, surface preparation and chemical treatment processes
Apply DoE and statistical analysis to improve capability, yield, throughput, cost and consistency
Establish and monitor process KPIs and drive continuous improvement
Investigate production issues, process variation and yield loss via root cause analysis
Collaborate with R&D, Manufacturing, Quality, Supply Chain, Operations and external partners

Key requirements

Degree in Chemical Engineering, Materials/Surface Science, Chemistry, Physics or related discipline
Significant process engineering experience in a regulated manufacturing environment
Semiconductor cleanroom experience preferred
Hands-on experience with coating technologies and surface treatments
Experience with statistical analysis tools such as Minitab or JMP
Knowledge of DoE, 8D, FMEA and structured problem-solving
Strong analytical, project management, communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
