 * Proficiency with project scheduling tools (e.g., Microsoft Project, Smartsheet, or equivalent) and a working understanding of SAP or a comparable enterprise resource planning (ERP) system for tracking orders, materials, and production status.
 * Working knowledge of mechanical and electrical system design - sufficient to read engineering drawings, interpret ECO impacts, and ask informed questions during design reviews. Familiarity with SolidWorks or AutoCAD is a plus.
 * Must have experience in the semiconductor industry., Problem Solving

Milestones (Project Management)
Employee Stock Purchase Planning, * Own the delivery timeline for each assigned system build, from order receipt through configuration, manufacturing, test, and shipment - aligning engineering, supply chain, manufacturing, and quality milestones into a single integrated schedule that you manage and communicate weekly.

 * Identify and resolve risks across engineering, operations, and supply chain that threaten on-time delivery - escalating early with a clear mitigation plan rather than waiting for the issue to become a crisis.
 * Serve as the primary project contact for external customers, providing status updates, managing expectations when schedules shift, and coordinating customer source inspections and ship-readiness reviews to ensure every system meets acceptance criteria before it leaves the building.
 * Conduct weekly Engineering Change Order (ECO) reviews with contract manufacturing partners, assessing the impact of design changes on active and upcoming builds and developing action plans that define when and how each change takes effect in production.
 * Track and coordinate engineering deliverables - both electrical and mechanical - against the project schedule, ensuring design milestones and documentation are complete before dependent manufacturing activities begin.
 * Deliver clear weekly status reports to operations leadership, covering schedule performance, open risks, resource constraints, and any customer-facing issues - giving management the visibility they need to make timely decisions.
 * Identify and implement process improvements that reduce cycle time, improve delivery predictability, or eliminate recurring blockers - then share those improvements with the broader project engineering team so every project benefits., Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI): We may use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to support parts of our hiring process, including sourcing, screening, and evaluating candidates. AI helps assess applications and qualifications, but final decisions are made by our hiring team. By applying, you acknowledge and agree that your application may be reviewed using AI tools.
