• Execute tool-to-tool and fab-to-fab matching, ensuring global alignment across Tesla's sister fabs to achieve uniformity in production
• Partner with equipment vendors and internal stakeholders to develop and sustain leading-edge module technologies that maximize yield, reliability, and cost-effectiveness
• Design and lead complex DOEs to optimize process windows, extract actionable insights, and guide data-driven process improvements
• Drive systematic yield improvement using structured problem-solving methodologies (FMEA, 8D, 5 Whys, DMAIC), leveraging upstream / downstream integration knowledge
• Lead cross-functional task forces to troubleshoot process excursions, perform root-cause and failure analysis, and implement long-term corrective actions
• Develop and maintain technical documentation including design-of-records, control plans, specifications, and standardized operating procedures
• Champion continuous improvement in safety, quality, throughput, and cost, directly supporting the fab's operational excellence roadmap
• Support 24 / 7 manufacturing operations through rotations, on-call availability, and rapid response to critical production issues
