Description

ABOUT THE COMPANY Tata Electronics Private Limited (TEPL) is a greenfield venture of the Tata Group with expertise in manufacturing precision components. Tata Electronics (a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Sons Pvt. Ltd.) is building India’s first AI-enabled state-of-the-art Semiconductor Foundry. This facility will produce chips for applications such as power management IC, display drivers, microcontrollers (MCU) and high-performance computing logic, addressing the growing demand in markets such as automotive, computing and data storage, wireless communications and artificial intelligence. Tata Electronics is a subsidiary of the Tata group. The Tata Group operates in more than 100 countries across six continents, with the mission 'To improve the quality of life of the communities we serve globally, through long term stakeholder value creation based on leadership with Trust.’JOB SUMMARY In order to drive success, candidate will analyze and diversify the supply chain for the project by defining and measuring performance criteria (milestone adherence, sourcing progress, cost savings opportunities, operational efficiency, etc.) to support strategic decision making. Manage project timelines and resources and ensure risk mitigation actions are identified and in place to ensure successful program launches. It will be necessary to continuously monitor and measure project processes and activities to ensure no delays to the project and that potential risks are identified in a timely manner. Candidate will own the business process to develop robust systems to track the progress of critical manufacturing equipment readiness across our global supply chain. Additional business process to develop and maintain dashboards to track program status and to communicate key project metrics to the broader organization including Engineering, Finance and Manufacturing will be key elements of this role.KEY RESPONSIBILITIES • Spare Parts Sourcing & Procurement Identify, source, and procure critical and non-critical spare parts for front-end semiconductor equipment (e.g., etch, deposition, lithography, CMP). Develop and maintain an approved supplier list for equipment parts and consumables. Collaborate with equipment engineering, maintenance, and procurement teams to forecast demand and optimize inventory. • Supplier Evaluation & Qualification Lead technical and commercial evaluations of spare parts suppliers, including OEMs and third-party vendors. Conduct supplier audits and risk assessments in coordination with Quality and Procurement teams. Support cost reduction initiatives through alternative part qualification and localization strategies. • Technical Analysis & Lifecycle Management Perform technical reviews and reverse engineering (if required) of spare parts to determine form-fit-function equivalency. Manage the lifecycle of parts, including obsolescence planning, phase-in/phase-out, and refurbishment programs. Maintain documentation such as BOMs, drawings, specifications, and usage history. • Cross-functional Collaboration Work closely with Fab operations, Maintenance, Equipment Engineering, and Supply Chain teams to align on equipment performance needs and part specifications. Support new tool installations and fab ramp-up activities by securing timely availability of critical spares. • Cost, Quality & Delivery (CQD) Management Monitor spare part performance using KPIs such as MTBF, failure rate, lead time, and total cost of ownership. Resolve part quality or fit issues, engaging suppliers for corrective actions or design changes. QUALIFICATIONS Bachelor’s degree in mechanical, Electrical, Materials Engineering or related field. 5 – 10 years of experience in semiconductor manufacturing or equipment spare parts sourcing preferred. Familiarity with semiconductor equipment (e.g., AMAT, LAM, TEL, ASML, KLA, etc.) and spare part assemblies. Experience with ERP/MRP systems and technical drawing interpretation (e.g., CAD, BOMs). Strong negotiation, communication, and supplier management skills. Knowledge of global sourcing, cost modeling, and inventory optimization. PREFERRED SKILLS Experience with part localization and second-source development. Lean or Six Sigma certification is a plus. Understanding fab operations, PM schedules, and maintenance best practices.
