Sustained and optimized wet etch processes, ensuring stability and adherence to manufacturing specifications through rigorous monitoring and control.

• Proactively drove continuous improvement initiatives by identifying process inefficiencies and implementing data-driven solutions to enhance production performance.
• Led excursion identification and resolution by conducting root cause analyses, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and implementing corrective actions to prevent recurrence.
• Authored, updated, and maintained Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and work instructions, ensuring clarity, compliance with industry standards, and alignment with best practices.
• Championed process improvement projects to:
• Increase yield by 5% through parameter optimization and defect reduction strategies.
• Reduce defect density by implementing advanced statistical process controls (SPC).
• Enhance cycle time by streamlining process workflows and reducing bottlenecks.
• Expand production capacity through equipment upgrades and process scaling.
• Applied technical expertise in Six Sigma, Lean methodologies, 5-Why analysis, and other continuous improvement techniques to identify opportunities, execute projects, and achieve measurable results.
• Collaborated with cross-disciplinary teams, including R&D, quality, and production, to transfer new processes from development to manufacturing and ensure seamless implementation.
