Business Consultant - Consulting-Business Consulting

JOB DESCRIPTION

This role requires a detailed understanding of end-to-end semiconductor manufacturing — from silicon start through wafer fabrication, assembly/test, packaging, and integration into downstream applications — combined with the ability to drive process improvement initiatives in highly technical, capital-intensive environments.

This role requires a detailed understanding of end-to-end semiconductor manufacturing — from silicon start through wafer fabrication, assembly/test, packaging, and integration into downstream applications — combined with the ability to drive process improvement initiatives in highly technical, capital-intensive environments.

This individual will serve as a day-to-day advisor to client stakeholders, managing project teams to improve supply planning performance, operational resilience, and end-to-end supply chain visibility. The role requires both semiconductor domain knowledge and strong project leadership capability.

• Manag e semiconductor supply chain process transformation workstream s from diagnostic through implementation.
• Serve as a key point of contact for Director - and Manage r-level stakeholders across operations, supply chain, and engineering functions.
• Support and driv e improvements across:
  • Silicon start planning
  • Wafer fabrication flow and cycle time optimization
  • Assembly, test, and packaging operations
  • Capacity modeling and constrained supply allocation
  • Downstream product integration and customer fulfillment
• Design and implement supply planning processes in long cycle-time, yield-driven, and capacity-constrained environments.
• Facilitate cross-functional workshops and support executive steering sessions, driving alignment across technical and business stakeholders.
• Guide team member s in developing actionable recommendations supported by data, scenario modeling, and financial impact analysis.
• Assess and help optimize ERP and advanced planning system landscapes supporting semiconductor operations (e.g., SAP IBP/APO, Oracle, Kinaxis, Blue Yonder, OMP, or similar).
