Instituted a culture of manufacturing excellence while providing operational leadership for the A-shift Diffusion/Implant team in Fab 25. Spansion merged with Cypress Semiconductor in March 2015. Managed daily operations to achieve business goals for a Fab that generally ran low volume/high mix products. Drove a culture of accountability by encouraging staff to hold each other accountable for their actions instead of relying solely on management oversight. Managed the introduction of various lean manufacturing concepts to meet production demands with 25% fewer resources. Served as a module spokesman for various ISO/UL audits and as a Fab representative for customer visits. Set the standard for Diffusion operational metrics.
