The opportunity

The Senior Manager of Process Engineering will be a critical leader responsible for developing and scaling robust manufacturing processes that enable consistent product performance yield and reliability. This role demands a strategic leader with deep experience in translating complex technologies into stable high-performing production processes who can effectively bridge the gap between development and high-volume manufacturing. This Senior Manager of Process Engineering will build and lead a high-performing team of process engineers driving process capability reducing variation and advancing continuous improvement across critical manufacturing workflows. The leader will partner closely with Equipment Engineering Product Development Quality and Operations teams to ensure processes are manufacturable scalable and aligned with product performance requirements. Success in this role requires strong technical depth structured problem-solving skills and the ability to influence across organizational boundaries to accelerate learning cycles and improve manufacturing readiness.

What youll do

• Build and lead a high-performing process engineering team supporting critical manufacturing processes and product performance requirements.
• Serve as the primary technical and operational point of contact for process-related readiness capability and performance across development and manufacturing environments.
• Establish clear quantifiable manufacturing readiness expectations for process capability yield performance variation reduction and process stability
• Provide direct management and strategic guidance to the core team of process engineers enabling strong technical execution and talent development.
• Ensure alignment across Product Development Equipment Engineering Quality Supply Chain and Operations to drive design-for-manufacturability and scalable process integration.
• Develop and execute process strategies that enable predictable yield throughput and product performance including CTF / CTQ consistency.
• Define and drive process capability metrics including Cp Cpk defectivity and process variation improvement.
• Lead structured root cause investigations to resolve yield excursions reliability risks and process performance gaps.
• Establish robust process control strategies including SPC DOE DFSS FMEA and monitoring frameworks that enable rapid learning cycles.
• Drive continuous improvement initiatives that improve process capability cycle time cost efficiency and manufacturability.

What youll bring

• 10 years of experience in process engineering within advanced technology manufacturing environments such as semiconductor photonics optics display and related industries
• Demonstrated expertise in developing characterizing and optimizing complex manufacturing processes including variation reduction yield improvement and process capability enhancement.
• Proven ability to manage and lead high-performing technical teams of process engineers fostering strong execution accountability and continuous improvement.
• Excellent communication problem-solving and cross-functional collaboration skills capable of setting expectations with both internal stakeholders and external partners.
• BS/MS in Engineering (Mechanical Electrical Industrial or equivalent).

Its exciting if you also have

• Strong experience applying data-driven methodologies including DOE DFSS SPC FMEA and statistical analysis to improve process stability and performance
• Demonstrated success driving root cause investigations and implementing corrective actions to resolve yield excursions and reliability risks
• Ability to translate complex technical challenges into actionable plans that improve manufacturability cycle time and cost efficiency
