Drive end-to-end Back-End capacity planning to balance demand and capacity, identify bottlenecks before they impact customers, and ensure production readiness.

What you'll do

• Translate customer demand into Back-End capacity requirements, with primary focus on the rolling next 6 months.
• Review and validate capacity loading across Back-End processes, especially Assembly and Test, against customer demand.
• Identify capacity bottlenecks, constraints, and underutilized resources that could impact customer deliveries or operational efficiency.
• Ensure tester and equipment capacity readiness to support demand, product mix, and business priorities.
• Work closely with Factory Planners, Supply Chain Planners, Demand Planners, PE, TE, and other stakeholders to align capacity with demand and material availability.
• Identify demand-capacity gaps early and highlight risks, roadblocks, and potential customer impact.
• Drive and coordinate capacity improvement actions, including optimization, load balancing, productivity improvement, and capacity adjustments.
• Support new product ramp-up and demand changes by ensuring adequate Back-End capacity is available at the required time.
• Monitor capacity utilization and loading trends and initiate corrective actions to avoid both capacity shortages and excessive idle capacity.
• Optimize capacity utilization while minimizing excess inventory and idle costs, balancing customer service requirements with operational efficiency.
• Provide clear capacity outlook, risks, and action plans to support business and supply-chain decision-making.
