Responsibilities
- • As a Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) Architect, you will play a foundational role in redefining how TI’s global factory network runs—integrating MES with real-time data pipelines, scheduling engines, FDC/APC systems, digital twins, and AI-driven decision support
- • This role is ideal for a seasoned MES leader who understands both deep semiconductor workflows and modern cloud-native architectures
- • You will define the next-generation MES architecture that enables TI’s operations to scale, adapt, and automate with speed
- • MES Architecture & Strategy
- • Define the end-to-end MES system architecture across wafer fabs, assembly/test, and ancillary operations
- • Develop the strategic roadmap for modernizing TI’s MES stack, including integration with AMAT MES 300, Siemens OpsCenter MES/MOM, or equivalent systems
- • Establish architectural principles that support autonomy, modularity, high availability, and global scalability
- • Architect a unified API and service layer for seamless integration between MES, E3/APC gateways, AMHS/OHT, equipment automation, facility systems, scheduling/dispatching engines, quality/test systems, and business systems (ERP, PLM)
- • Design patterns for horizontal and vertical integration—from shop-floor equipment to enterprise applications
- • Define how MES interacts with TI’s common data foundation (unified data warehouse, data lake, streaming architectures)
- • Partner with data engineering teams to ensure MES data is accessible, semantically consistent, and optimized for analytics, digital twins, and AI/ML
- • Enable “Factory That Thinks” capabilities by integrating MES with digital twins, predictive scheduling, and agentic workflows
- • Co-design Run-to-Run (R2R), Virtual Metrology, and FDC/APC data flows to support higher automation maturity
- • Support E3 model coverage expansion and standardization across tools
- • Standards, Governance, and Reliability
- • Define and enforce MES architectural standards, naming conventions, ontologies, and metadata schemas
- • Drive cybersecurity, access control, selective disclosure, and audit/compliance requirements within MES workflows
- • Establish guidelines for deployment, versioning, disaster recovery, and business continuity
- • Work closely with domain leaders across Smart Manufacturing (Scheduling & Simulation, Equipment Automation, Process Control, Data & AI, Decision Support & Agentic Automation)
- • Partner with manufacturing operations, engineering, IT, cybersecurity, quality, and product teams to ensure seamless end-to-end workflows
- • Mentor cross-functional teams and guide vendors/partners in architecting scalable solutions
