It works across engineering, operations, quality, and supply chain, influencing stakeholders and accelerating decision-making in a complex, matrixed organization. The role also integrates value programs into product strategies and drives early business-unit alignment and disciplined execution at scale. The role is suited to someone with experience managing large, multi-threaded project portfolios in semiconductor capital equipment or similarly complex manufacturing environments, and a record of delivering cost and operational improvements.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Supply Chain, Operations, or a related field.
  • 5–10 years of experience with increasing responsibility leading complex cross-functional programs.
  • Demonstrated track record delivering multi-million-dollar cost reduction and value engineering programs.
  • Experience managing multi-project portfolios with measurable business impact.
  • Strong expertise in product cost structure and value engineering for complex electromechanical systems.
  • Ability to build cost models, evaluate trade-offs, and quantify business impact.
  • Track record of influencing engineering, operations, quality, and supply chain without direct authority.
  • Ability to communicate clearly with technical teams and senior leadership.
  • Deep domain expertise in product cost structure, materials, and sourcing strategies, translating technical and supply chain insights into measurable cost and performance improvements.
  • Broad working knowledge across engineering, operations, quality, and supply chain disciplines.
  • Strong business acumen and ability to anticipate technical, operational, and regulatory challenges and adapt program strategies.
  • Ability to work at both component and system levels, maintaining focus on product and portfolio impact.
  • Structured, data-driven problem-solving skills for complex and ambiguous challenges, balancing analytical rigor with speed of execution.

Responsibilities

  • Define and drive product-level cost reduction, resiliency, and value engineering strategy; build and manage a multi-year roadmap aligned to division cost objectives.
  • Own a portfolio of value programs across implanter product lines, prioritizing initiatives by business impact, feasibility, and resource constraints.
  • Lead program execution from concept through qualification and production enablement, delivering against cost, schedule, and performance targets.
  • Develop and maintain cost models and forecasts; track realized savings and report performance against plan to stakeholders and leadership.
  • Integrate value initiatives into product roadmaps, align early with business units, and influence prioritization decisions.
  • Drive cross-functional execution across engineering, operations, quality, and supply chain; remove barriers, resolve conflicts, and accelerate decisions.
  • Partner with engineering to identify design, sourcing, and specification opportunities that improve cost, manufacturability, and supply chain resilience.
  • Evaluate trade-offs across cost, risk, quality, and schedule to support informed decisions and program success.
  • Monitor program health, risks, dependencies, and critical-path activities; escalate and resolve issues affecting delivery.
  • Use internal and external benchmarks to improve value program strategy, execution rigor, and business impact.
  • Lead complex, high-impact programs with significant technical, operational, and business risk, creating clarity and alignment in ambiguous environments.
  • Influence cross-functional teams without direct authority, hold stakeholders accountable, and drive decisions that advance program outcomes.
  • Align stakeholders across functions and levels, including senior leadership, and communicate to drive understanding, prioritization, and action.
