Apr 2022 – Present · 4 yrs

I was responsible for coordinating cross-functional teams to ensure projects were delivered on time and met technical requirements. I was involved in multiple high-complexity semiconductor manufacturing equipment projects, managing the entire process from R&D to production, driving solutions to technical challenges, and optimizing production processes. I maintained close collaboration with clients and suppliers to ensure high product quality standards and effectively handled risks and issues within the projects. During this time, I also worked closely with the engineering team to drive technological innovation, improve product performance and efficiency, and ensure the successful implementation of projects that met business objectives.
