The PTPM serves as the single point of accountability for complex, cross-functional packaging initiatives, ensuring alignment across global stakeholders and disciplined execution through structured program management.
Key Responsibilities
Program & Execution Leadership

• Own end-to-end program management for advanced packaging initiatives (e.g., 3DS, FC-BGA, advanced wirebond, 2.5D/3D packages) from concept through HVM ramp
• Define and manage program plans, milestones, critical paths, and dependencies
• Drive execution against schedule, cost, yield, and quality KPIs
• Proactively identify technical and execution risks, lead mitigation plans, and drive decision closure

Cross-Functional & Cross-Site Coordination

• Partner with Packaging PDE, Assembly Integration R&D, Product Engineering, Quality, Supply Chain, Equipment, and Manufacturing sites
• Lead global, cross-site program coordination (e.g., recipe/process transfer, site readiness, ramp alignment)
• Facilitate governance forums, technical reviews, and executive readouts

New Product Introduction (NPI)

• Drive NPI execution for packaging technologies, including:
  • Process and package readiness
  • Deliverable tracking (PRD/TRD/PITD/QATD or equivalent)
  • Risk & maturity assessments
• Ensure alignment to business priorities, customer requirements, and manufacturing constraints

Technical Program Management

• Translate technical development work into executable plans with clear ownership
• Track progress across process development, equipment readiness, tooling, materials, and yield improvements
• Support technology transfer, scale-up, and factory deployment of new packaging capabilities

Communication & Stakeholder Management

• Provide clear, concise, executive-ready program updates
• Maintain single source of truth for program status, issues, and decisions
• Influence without authority and align diverse stakeholders around common objectives

Continuous Improvement & Best Practices

• Drive program management best practices, standardization, and lessons learned
• Support transformation initiatives (automation, dashboards, data-driven execution)
• Mentor junior program managers where applicable

Qualifications
Education

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Materials, Electrical, Chemical, Semiconductor-related fields)
• PMP or equivalent certification preferred (not mandatory)

Experience

• 8-15+ years in semiconductor industry with exposure to assembly / packaging / manufacturing
• 5+ years of technical program or project management experience in complex, cross-functional environments
• Strong familiarity with:
  • Advanced packaging technologies (FC, WB, HBM, 2.5D/3D)
  • Semiconductor NPI and manufacturing flows
  • Yield, quality, and reliability fundamentals

Core Skills

• Strong program execution discipline
• Ability to operate at the intersection of technical depth and schedule control
• Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and executive presence
• Proven ability to manage ambiguity, competing priorities, and global teams

Success Metrics

• On-time delivery of packaging programs
• Smooth NPI and HVM ramp with minimized technical escapes
• Effective cross-site alignment and issue resolution
• High credibility with engineering and leadership teams

Typical Interfaces

• Packaging Development Engineering (PDE / ATPDE)
• Assembly Integration R&D
• Manufacturing Engineering & Operations
• Quality & Reliability
• Supply Chain & Procurement
• Program Management Offices (PMO)
