European Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (ESMC) is a joint venture between four technology leaders, TSMC, Bosch, Infineon and NXP, to establish a state-of-the-art semiconductor fab in the heart of Europe. ESMC represents our shared commitment to strengthening the European semiconductor ecosystem.

For our future fab in Dresden, we are looking for a highly motivated and committed:

In this role you will play a central role in advancing our quality standards and ensuring operational excellence within our high-tech semiconductor manufacturing facility in Dresden. You will lead data-driven quality improvement initiatives, drive structured process change management, and perform in-depth analysis using statistical process control (SPC) systems. Your work will directly influence product quality, manufacturing stability, and efficiency, while offering exceptional exposure to global best practices and a strong platform for long-term professional and technical development in an international environment.

As part of this position, you will have the unique opportunity to complete a comprehensive 12-month training assignment at our mother fab in Taiwan. This immersive program equips you with deep hands-on expertise in manufacturing processes, quality systems, SPC frameworks, and change governance according to TSMCs word-leading practice — providing the foundation to operate independently and at expert level upon your return to Germany. The training will start shortly after the start date on October 1st. 2026.

• Continuously monitor wafer fabrication processes, (equipment parameters, manufacturing operations, incoming materials) and perform analysis of critical quality events and wafer quality indicators.
• Proactively identify areas for improvement.
• Ensure consistent maintenance of daily routine quality tasks, including pre-checks and Change Control Board processes.
• Support User Acceptance Testing (UAT) for the AQES systems.
• Develop, implement, and maintain robust manufacturing process controls through advanced Statistical Process Control (SPC) methodologies.
• Champion the integration and promotion of statistical process control and intelligent process quality control knowledge.
• Develop and maintain in-depth knowledge of various quality systems related to wafer fabrication processes and facilities.
• Apply process change management and risk control principles, including understanding FCCB-related engineering change systems.
• Conduct KPI tracing and analysis, utilizing tools such as Ishikawa diagrams, to assess process performance.
• Manage and maintain change-related systems, facilitating and documenting scheduled Change Control Board (CCB) meetings.
• Coordinate and lead quality-related projects aimed at enhancing product quality, improving manufacturing efficiency, and boosting customer satisfaction.
• Perform independent work during scheduled weekend on-call rotations and/or on-duty shifts with a sense of urgency.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Semiconductor Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Statistics, or a related engineering field.
• Fluent in English (C1 level), with basic German language skills (B1 level). Mandarin Chinese is a strong plus.
• 3–6 years of relevant work experience; semiconductor experience and/or high-volume manufacturing is preferred.
• Strong fundamental computer skills, including Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, and MS Office/Outlook.
• Advanced data analytics skills (e.g., using Excel VBA, R, or similar tools); programming skills are preferred.
• Knowledge of semiconductor manufacturing and design is an advantage.
• Displays a positive attitude and proficiency in collaborating within a team.
• Flexible and open-minded to work in a diverse and dynamic environment.
• Self-motivated, with strong resilience and perseverance.
• Motivated and available for "on-the-job" Training in Taiwan for 12 months.

• Security & Perspective: A permanent employment contract and career advancement opportunities in one of Europe's leading semiconductors fabs.
• Company Pension Plan & Financial Benefits: We support your financial well-being with our robust company pension plan. As an ESMC employee, you also benefit directly from TSMC’s performance through an exclusive Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP).
• Relocation Support for Dresden: Moving for us? We’ll provide you with all the support you will need for your relocation and your start in Dresden.
• Training & Development: Depending on your position, you will gain a deeper understanding of the processes involved in operating complex semiconductor equipment through unique hands-on training at the TSMC Newcomer Training Center, while continuously expanding your knowledge.
• Health & Well-Being: An annual budget for your health and well-being (e.g., for sports classes, massages, or relaxation) helps you stay fit.
• Meals & Transportation: Enjoy a daily meal allowance as well as a subsidized public transportation (e.g., for the Deutschlandticket) in Germany.
