Engineering and Manufacturing Technical Leader
Skilled technical leader, adept in operations, analysis, collaboration and coaching.
AREAS OF EXPERTISE:
Operations
• Theory of Constraints, Supply Chain Management, and Factory Physics.
• Delivered improvements leveraging LEAN, TRIZ, model-based and 7-step problem solving. Multiple projects that had direct impact to the operations and reduction of waste in the process (LEAN). One metrology project saved 200 hours per week in product delay, tool and people resources.
• 24*7 escalation role to 168 hour team deliverables of Safety, People, Quality, Performance and Cost.
• Technical leader on the New Product Introductions team that reduced throughput time by 2.7X, approximately 2-months. The progress enabled commit time reduction by 2.4X that was sustained with 100% of commits meeting or beating schedule.
Analysis
• Statistical analysis and modeling, including Excursion Prevention system.
• Data-mining and reports creation; including databases, Excel, CrystalBall, and Discovery Business Objects
Collaboration and Coaching
• Partnered with multidisciplinary team of technicians, process & product engineers, group and shift leaders, remote operations, integration, yield, sort, and automation to execute world class performance.
• Numerous leadership, coaching and mentorship roles through daily site operations, the Society of Women Engineers (SWE), Recent College Graduate Network (NM RCGN), and Women at Intel (WIN) affinity groups, including chair of a 30+ person team across six time zones and 4 countries.
• Developer and Chair of Intel Career Development Day. The event brought in collegiate students to learn about the inner workings of Intel Corporation, experience mock interviewing, discuss resume writing skills and attend a working session on Individual Development Plans. The event is now held annually.
