Description

SUMMARY

The Cell Production Team controls plant production and supervises the manufacturing operation of solar cell production. The Production Engineers (Front-end or Back-end focus) will optimize the operational efficiency of production. This role focuses on improving the logistics and production conditions of the front-end or Back-end processes.

RESPONSIBILITIES

1. Process Improvement
  • Improve production efficiency of the process, especially for bottleneck process.
  • Manage raw materials such as wafers, paste, and screens to improve the production cost of solar cell processes.
  • Implement an intelligent production system to increase labor efficiency and improve quality management.
  • Optimize process automation and logistics sequence of production input from bare wafer to final cell output.

2. Procedure Management
  • Document standard operating procedure of production operation.
  • Ensure standard procedures are followed on-site for production safety and quality purposes.
  • Reform and revise OCAP (Out-of-Control Action Plan) and SOP (Standard Operating Procedures) as necessary.


4. Production Management
  • Establish a production management system from environmental and quality perspectives.
  • Optimize production conditions in terms of manpower, equipment, and materials.
  • Confirm data accuracy of production yield, output, quality, and raw materials in stock.
  • Conduct a control action plan for production quality.

5. Production Planning
  • Establish a production plan based on past performance.
  • Manage production and material data on MES (Manufacturing Execution System) and ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning).
  • Confirm data accuracy of production order and production quantity.
  • Align schedules of preventive maintenance and production testing according to production line status.

6. Production Improvement
  • Investigate and improve issues related to production process, quality, and costs.
  • Regulate the operators' standard training and operations and apply on-site suggestions.
  • Analyze production costs and labor expenses to increase manpower and resource efficiency.

7. All other duties assigned by management or that require immediate attention by Team members.

8. Must acquire a profound knowledge of the front-end processes from a scientific and engineering standpoint.

QUALIFICATIONS

1. Educational & Experience:
  • Bachelor of Science degree in Industrial Engineering, Material Science, Chemical Engineering, or related field
  • Minimum 3 years of experience in production management.


2. Technical Knowledge:
  • Basic knowledge of production planning and control.
  • Experience in semiconductor, display manufacturing, or related industry.
  • Strong understanding of the front-end process of semiconductor fabrication.
  • Analysis skills of SQL or MS Office to interpret data and derive conclusions.

3. Preferred Requirements:
  • Basic understanding of solar cell production.
