About the Role

We are seeking an experienced AI/Data Architect to join the Texas Fab Yield Enhancement and Control Systems team. This person will be a solutions architect to design and deploy intelligent systems that drive yield improvement with root cause analysis and process optimization across our wafer fabrication operations. You will bridge advanced data analytic techniques with deep semiconductor manufacturing domain knowledge to build production-grade platforms.

Key Responsibilities

Architect and implement AI/Data solutions for automated root cause analysis of yield excursions and process drift

Design statistical correlation engines linking process parameters, metrology data, and electrical test results across fabrication steps

Build and maintain AI/ML solutions for anomaly detection and process control enhancement

Work with IT to integrate solutions with manufacturing systems and data platforms.

Lead cross functional teams of Yield, Process, Equipment, Manufacturing, and IT teams to build and deploy production software applications.

Define and help manage with IT the site data architecture strategies for optimal impact.

5+ years in semiconductor manufacturing, process engineering, or fab data systems

If Master's or PhD degree less years industry experience may be considered.

Expertise in statistical correlation methods (multivariate analysis, PCA, partial correlation, Granger causality) applied to manufacturing data

Strong software engineering skills (Python, SQL, Spark/PySpark, Git) with understanding of production-quality code practices

Demonstrated experience with AI architectures

Deep understanding of ML techniques: supervised/unsupervised learning, time-series analysis, Bayesian methods, and causal inference

Familiarity with yield management concepts: bin pareto, wafer maps, lot genealogy, split-lot analysis, inline-to-final correlation

Preferred Qualifications

Strong background in SPC, FDC, APC systems in semiconductor fab environment

Experience with semiconductor processes and integration for device fabrication

Working knowledge of MES/EMS systems, SECS/GEM, and equipment data collection

Hands-on experience with advanced data storage, data engineering, and advanced data analytic techniques.

Familiarity with LLM frameworks
