  • Design, run, and analyze design of experiments (DOE) and other statistical methodologies to understand critical process parameters and their impact on quality and yield
  • Develop scalable, robust manufacturing processes that meet quality, regulatory, and cost objectives; drive design for manufacturability and design-to-cost initiatives
  • Plan and manage technology transfer activities from development to production lines, including support in process validation (IQ/OQ/PQ), commissioning, and start-up support
