Summary of Role: 

GlobalFoundries Fab 9 is seeking a Production Control Engineer to provide 12-hour AWS engineering support on a day-shift schedule in our 200mm semiconductor manufacturing facility in Essex Junction, Vermont. In this highly visible manufacturing line-control role, you will maximize fab output by identifying and escalating production inhibitors, optimizing scheduling and dispatching systems, and partnering cross-functionally to improve cycle time, on-time delivery, capacity, and tool productivity. 

Essential Responsibilities include: 

• Manage production work in process (WIP) to achieve fab output, cycle-time, and on-time-delivery targets. 

• Monitor line performance, identify and prioritize key production inhibitors, including tool constraints, queue imbalances, holds, time-window risk, and material-flow issues, and drive timely cross-functional resolution. 

• Analyze production, tool, and queue reports to anticipate delivery risk and coordinate recovery plans with Manufacturing, Equipment, Process Engineering, Planning, and Quality. 

• Develop daily WIP movement priorities and execution plans to maximize fab moves and drive down cycle time. 

• Analyze and optimize RTD, Inficon, and other scheduling and dispatching tools to improve WIP flow, tool utilization, cycle time, and overall production efficiency. 

• Coordinate urgent, critical, and customer-priority lots while protecting overall line performance. 

• Schedule facilities and tool-time requests to minimize production disruption. 

• Use data-driven problem solving to improve line-control systems, operating routines, and decision-support tools, delivering measurable gains in throughput, cycle time, and equipment productivity. 

• Lead or support cross-functional initiatives that improve equipment productivity, constraint recovery, capacity, and sustainable output. 

Other Responsibilities: 

• Perform all activities in a safe and responsible manner and support all Environmental, Health, Safety & Security requirements and programs. 

Required Qualifications: 

• Education – Graduating with Bachelor's degree in Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or another major with significant technical courseworks or related field from an accredited degree program.  

• Must have at least an overall 3.0 GPA and proven good academic standing. 

• Language Fluency - English (Written & Verbal)

Preferred Qualifications:  

• Prior related internship or co-op experience. 

• Demonstrated prior leadership experience in the workplace, school projects, competitions, etc. 

• Strong interest in leveraging AI tools and emerging technologies to enhance productivity, streamline workflows, and support effective decision-making. 

• Project management skills, i.e. the ability to innovate and execute solutions that matter; the ability to navigate ambiguity.  

• Strong written and verbal communication skills  

• Strong planning & organizational skills 

• Experience using data analysis, factory automation, scheduling, or dispatching tools in a manufacturing environment. 

• Demonstrated continuous-improvement mindset and ability to collaborate across technical and manufacturing teams.
