Dear HR Director,
This letter is in response to the Purchasing Manager opportunity recently
posted on Resumebook360.com website. As you can see from the attached
resume, I have a broad range of engineering experience in the manufacturing
industry, from Director of Foundry Operations, to Technical Development
Manager, to Project Manager, to Engineering Manager. My relevant
experience includes:
. Director of Foundry Operations. Managed all the technical issues with
multiple external silicon wafer-manufacturing partners in Taiwan.
Managed and resolved day-to-day production issues. Defined and sourced
manufacturing sites to meet new technology requirements and
specifications. Managed 1.8 million dollar project for new product
technology introduction.
. Technology Development Engineering Leader. Responsible for
Engineering group developing new machined products for Semiconductor
Consumable product line and Glass Coating business line. Directly
worked with customers to understand emerging markets and future
technology requirements.
. Project Manager. Completed many new product and process transfer
projects. Worked with cross-functional teams to track/drive new
production equipment implementation, process changes, yield
improvement changes, and other projects. Established a "lean project
register" used to drive and track site cost savings projects and
process efficiency improvements.
. Engineering Manager. Established and managed multiple organizations
of engineers and technicians that supported several high volume
manufacturing lines. Led engineering teams to streamline/improve
existing production processes and implement new production processes.
Partnered with other site organizations to achieve site goals
including cycle time, yield, cost per unit, quality, and rework rates.
Member of the Material Review Board that reviewed all proposed
process changes and disposition of non compliant material. ISO9001
and ISO 14001 certified factories.
I would appreciate an opportunity to learn more about the position you
offer, and would be glad to provide additional information and/ or
references. Please do not hesitate to call me if you have any questions.
