Job Description: 

Transform the Future of Semiconductor Manufacturing

Intel is transforming its backend manufacturing network operations toward autonomous, lights-out manufacturing. We are building the next generation of factory automation platforms that enable intelligent, scalable, and highly efficient operations across Intel's global backend manufacturing network.

In this role, you will architect and deliver software solutions spanning MES, equipment automation, robotics, material handling systems, edge computing, Industrial IoT, and AI-enabled factory capabilities. You will work closely with factory operations, technology development, IT, and engineering teams to translate manufacturing requirements into scalable, production-ready solutions.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design end-to-end automation solutions, software architectures, and integration frameworks.
• Define interfaces, protocols, APIs, and architecture patterns for factory automation platforms.
• Evaluate emerging technologies and drive technical pathfinding for new capabilities.
• Partner with factory stakeholders to understand requirements and prioritize automation solutions.
• Guide development, validation, deployment, and adoption of automation capabilities.
• Support technology transfers, high-volume manufacturing (HVM) readiness, and factory enablement initiatives.

Impact
Success in this role will be measured by:

• Reducing manual factory touchpoints and increasing factory autonomy.
• Improving throughput, equipment utilization, quality, and cycle time.
• Accelerating deployment and adoption of automation capabilities.
• Enabling successful technology development, transfer, and foundry customer engagements.
• Delivering scalable, reusable solutions that drive operational excellence across Intel factories.

Qualifications:

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related field.
• 8+ years of experience designing and delivering complex software or distributed systems.
• Experience with software architecture, distributed systems, event-driven platforms, microservices, or industrial automation solutions.
• Knowledge of industrial communication standards such as SECS/GEM, GEM300, OPC-UA, MQTT, REST, or gRPC.
• Strong collaboration, problem-solving, and stakeholder engagement skills.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience in semiconductor manufacturing, industrial automation, robotics, or Industry 4.0 environments.
• Knowledge of MES, AMHS, AGV/AMR systems, or factory automation platforms.
• Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, edge computing, or cloud-native architectures.
• Familiarity with Kafka, AI/ML-enabled automation, and OT cybersecurity.

Join us in building the technology foundation for Intel's next generation of autonomous factories.
