You work in a cross-functional role, acting as a bridge between technical and business roles.

Position Summary

We are seeking a highly experienced semiconductor manufacturing professional to lead global business process standardization initiatives across all GLOBALFOUNDRIES manufacturing sites. This role will drive the development, alignment, and deployment of standardized manufacturing and quality-related business processes, ensuring consistency, efficiency, compliance, and operational excellence across the enterprise.

The successful candidate will possess deep knowledge of semiconductor manufacturing operations, quality systems, fab business processes, and cross-functional program management. They will work closely with manufacturing, quality, engineering, IT, and site leadership teams to understand current-state practices, define future-state global standards, and lead end-to-end execution of transformation initiatives.

The role requires the ability to influence stakeholders globally, facilitate alignment among diverse fabs, manage process harmonization efforts, and drive organizational adoption of standardized processes and systems.

Key Responsibilities

Business Process Standardization

• Lead enterprise-wide manufacturing business process standardization initiatives across multiple semiconductor fabs.
• Analyze and document current-state ("As-Is") processes across global manufacturing sites.
• Identify process variations, gaps, inefficiencies, redundancies, and best practices.
• Develop future-state ("To-Be") standardized business processes that balance operational efficiency with site-specific requirements.
• Establish process governance, ownership models, standards, templates, and deployment frameworks.
• Ensure process consistency across manufacturing, quality, engineering, production control, supply chain, maintenance, and related operational functions.

Cross-Functional Leadership

• Facilitate workshops and discussions with stakeholders across global fabs to drive alignment and consensus.
• Build strong relationships with site manufacturing leaders, quality leaders, subject-matter experts, and program teams.
• Lead cross-functional decision-making forums and drive resolution of process standardization issues.
• Partner with IT, Digital Manufacturing, QA and Fab Operation team during process transformation initiatives.

Program & Change Management

• Drive large-scale global process transformation programs from concept through deployment.
• Develop project plans, milestones, risk mitigation strategies, and deployment roadmaps.
• Manage stakeholder communications and executive updates.
