Project Title

Manufacturing Process Analytics and Equipment Shading Characterization Using Inspection Data

Project Description

This internship offers an opportunity to learn how data analytics is applied within a high‑volume semiconductor manufacturing environment. The intern will be exposed to process monitoring concepts and statistical analysis methods through the study of historical manufacturing and inspection datasets.

The primary project focuses on collaborating with the Smart Manufacturing & Artificial Intelligence team to investigate equipment hardware‑related shading phenomena observed in inspection data. The intern will analyze how shading patterns influence data quality and process control, and develop analytical insights to support long‑term manufacturing improvement initiatives.

Through this project, the intern will gain hands‑on experience in semiconductor manufacturing data, applied statistics, and cross‑functional collaboration between process engineering and advanced analytics teams.
