Led C-Level updates on new process implementations that enabled significant increases to factory starts and revenue growthImplemented a full layer process conversion that led to a 10% yield increase by reducing the device contact resistanceImplemented a dry etch process that reduced reworks and led to matched device electrical performance across different factoriesUpdated End-of-Line (EOL) electrical spec limits that increased die yield by 1% with no change to customer performance or distribution of data sheet parametersOwned the Ohmic Contact process layers. Dispositioned to lot holds and misprocesses in the layers. Supported tool quals to increase wafer capacity in the module. Owned MRB disposition for the module. Audited the control methods for the toolsets and identified potential causes of misprocessing in the moduleOwned conversion of over 100 part numbers from NPI to production including route creations, MES setup, process recipe creation, and SAP setupSelf-taught React to create web based dashboards pull & display production data for the Product/Process Engineering teams
