Manufacturing Planning and Execution (MPE)

• Labor utilization modeling for photo reticle movement within the fab

• Python linear programming solver for storage of incoming photo reticles

• Modeling future implementation scenarios for an automated reticle handling system

• Rebuild of data reports as part of a sitewide transition to a new Manufacturing Execution System (MES)

• Creation of 8 database views with SQL queries

• Creation of 4 Spotfire data visualizations from database views

• Photolithography workstation line balancing and tool load balancing

Module Industrial Engineering (MIE)

• Developed a Python-based web application performing time series forecasting of real processing time (RPT) by workstation and process step across all process modules

• Regression analysis on potential factors affecting Photolithography exposure times including shot count, dose, and reticle design at the 248nm KrF workstation

• Regression analysis on CVD thin film process times and chamber usage

• Root cause investigation of process time variation within PVD Aluminum film deposition workstations

• Standardized sets of mechanical asset names and related breakdown codes across company sites within Redzone OEE software.

• Provided direct instruction to plant supervisors and floor operators to ensure the accuracy of downtime tracking and the subsequent utilization of information for corrective action.

• Contacted industrial automation vendors to obtain quotes on robotics for packaging and palletizing applications. Provided line run rate data, package and case dimensions, pallet stack patterns, and other key information to vendors. Cost-Benefit modeling to compare full scope implementation against Robotics-as-a-Service (RaaS) alternatives.

• Cost estimation for upgrades to critical line equipment, HVAC systems, and water treatment systems.

• Calculation of line velocities and creation of piping & instrumentation diagrams to verify adherence to customer audit specifications.

• Developed an Excel model to estimate ROI for engineering/maintenance projects. Process included real-world validation and computational verification.

• Created over 100 SOP checklists and data sheets for daily operational setup within Redzone software.

• Created data sheets for completion of BRC and SQF food safety audits within Redzone software.
