Group/Division The KLA Services team consists of Service Sales, Marketing, Spares Supply Chain Management, Field Operations, Engineering, Product Training, Digital Solutions and Analytics, and Technical Product Support. Our services organization maximizes the value of our customers' KLA assets – with highly trained service and product support engineers providing installation services and 24/7 technical support and parts delivery through our extensive supply chain network.
What You'll DoIn this role, you will play a key part in advancing business priorities by delivering high-impact work across your area of expertise.
Preferred Qualifications The Product Service Manager owns the customer experience and unit economics of a KLA product family across its install-base lifetime — from new-product field readiness through mature-fleet sustaining. You are accountable for Cost of Service, customer satisfaction, escalation governance, fleet availability, fleet performance, and field readiness for new product introductions. You translate field signal into product, operating-model, and commercial decisions — and hold the line on those decisions across NPI, Sustaining, Tech Support, and Engineering peers.
You operate through influence, data, and crisp escalation governance.

Partner with Cross-collaboration services teams and Division team root-cause analysis, retrofit programs, and service support strategy
Fleet performance Own product-family performance commitments: throughput, cleanliness, repeatability Translate fab-outcome expectations into product-level service deliverables
Partner with Division GMs whose tools host your product family — your service performance is their tool's uptime
