Summary of Role:
This isn't a typical HRBP seat. This is a front-row partnership with the engineering and operations leaders running one of the most advanced semiconductor manufacturing facilities in the United States.
GlobalFoundries Fab 8 in Malta, NY is at the epicenter of the U.S. semiconductor resurgence, powering technologies for AI, automotive, aerospace & defense, and next-generation silicon photonics. We're looking for a seasoned, strategic HR Business Partner who thrives in high-velocity manufacturing environments and wants to shape the people strategy behind the chips that shape the world.
Essential Responsibilities:
You'll serve as a dedicated HRBP for engineering and operations client groups within a high-volume semiconductor fab, partnering directly with senior leaders on workforce strategy, talent decisions, and organizational health.
Data is your superpower. We don't do HR by gut feel. You'll leverage HR analytics, Workday, and AI tools to surface trends, build retention models, and deliver insights that drive executive decisions.
You'll be a trusted advisor, not an order-taker. This role demands someone who can coach VPs, navigate complex ER situations with sound judgment, and influence the business, not just support it.
The semiconductor industry is booming. With $50B+ in CHIPS Act investment flowing into U.S. manufacturing, you'll be building the workforce that powers the next industrial revolution.
