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.
