We are seeking a highly analytical and hands-on Demand & Capacity Planner to lead the transformation and subsequent sustaining of planning capabilities within a fast-paced semiconductor manufacturing environment. This role will be critical in evolving the organization from manual, Excel-based wafer start planning to a scalable, system-driven approach.

The ideal candidate has deep experience in semiconductor wafer fab operations, understands re-entrant flows and cycle time variability, and has successfully refined planning processes.

Key Responsibilities

Demand & Wafer Start Planning

• Develop and own wafer start plans aligned with demand forecasts, fab capacity, and strategic priorities.

• Translate customer demand into executable fab loading plans across multiple toolsets and process layers.

• Balance near-term execution (S&OE) with long-term capacity planning (S&OP).

Capacity Modeling & Throughput Optimization

• Build and maintain detailed capacity models incorporating:

  • Tool group capacities and constraints

  • Re-entrant flows

  • Cycle time variability

  • WIP profiles and queue dynamics

• Identify bottlenecks and drive corrective actions to improve throughput and cycle time.

• Perform scenario analysis to evaluate trade-offs between utilization, cycle time, and service levels.

Analytics & Decision Support

• Develop advanced models to estimate cycle time, throughput, and capacity

• Implement dashboards and KPIs including:

  • Capacity utilization

  • Cycle time and variability

  • Forecast accuracy

  • Plan adherence

• Enable "what-if" simulation capabilities for demand volatility and fab disruptions.

Cross-Functional Alignment

• Partner with local and overseas operations, engineering, supply chain, and finance teams to align plans.

• Communicate risks, constraints, and recommendations to management leadership.

Qualifications

Required

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Supply Chain, Operations, or related field (Master's or PhD preferred).

• 12+ years of experience in semiconductor manufacturing or planning.

• Strong understanding of:

  • Semiconductor wafer fab operations

  • Re-entrant manufacturing flows

  • Cycle time drivers and variability

  • WIP management, bottlenecks, and throughput optimization.

• Proven experience building planning systems from Excel/manual processes.

• Hands-on experience with MES, ERP, and Data analytics systems.

• Expertise in developing wafer start and capacity models.

Preferred

• Lean/Six Sigma certification or equivalent process improvement experience.

• Familiarity with data tools (SQL, Python, JMP).

• Experience in high mix/low-volume or complex manufacturing environments.

Key Competencies

• Strong analytical and quantitative modeling skills

• Ability to operate in ambiguity and build scalable solutions

• Excellent stakeholder communication across technical and management teams

• Proven change agent in operational transformation
