About the Job

The Full Stack Software Engineer will design, develop, and deploy the TI's unified web-based dashboard that gives shopfloor team a single pane of glass into real-time equipment status, downtime management, preventive maintenance scheduling, OEE reporting, and AMHS automation visibility across all Assembly, Test, Bump & Probe (ATBP) manufacturing sites worldwide.

This role sits inside the Smart Manufacturing & Automation (SMA) team and requires close collaboration with manufacturing, production engineering, QA, IT, and peer platform owners (AI Agents, Command Center, AMHS) to build deeply integrated, production-grade factory software.

Responsibilities include:

• Design and develop full-stack web application platform, covering Realtime Machine Status, Downtime ticketing, PM scheduling, OEE dashboards, and reporting modules.
• Integrate with manufacturing data sources event streams via SECS/GEM and factory automation databases.
• Build and maintain real-time data pipelines using Kafka for alarm, process-state, and equipment event ingestion, ensuring sub-second UI refresh for production floor visibility.
• Develop and maintain REST APIs consumed by mobile applications, smart devices, dashboard, and integration touchpoints with AI Agents and Command Center.
• Implement the alarm-state logic layer that filters, validates, and blocks false alarms from polluting KPI counts during troubleshooting, repair, EE/PE recipe creation, and SWR activities.
• Build the Kafka signal state-machine mapping (RUN / IDLE / ALARM / OFFLINE sub-states) used by CI, ADA, and Command Center as their shared contract for machine state reasoning.
• Lead UI/UX design improvements based on operator and technician feedback, maintaining high-quality user experience for on-floor and mobile users.
• Drive worldwide fan-out of CI from TIM pilot to TIM, TIEM, CDAT, TIPI, TICL, TITL, and TMX following the established site-by-site RTP schedule.
• Participate in ITR (IT Readiness Review) and CCB (Change Control Board) processes required for deploying production systems across TI manufacturing sites.
• Write comprehensive technical documentation, user guides, and training materials for manufacturing floor personnel.
• Monitor system performance in production, triage incidents, and deliver continuous improvements to stability, latency, and data accuracy.
• Collaborate with the SMA AI DevOps team on CI/CD pipeline, containerized deployments (Docker/K8s), and infrastructure provisioning.

Minimum requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology, or a related field
• Strong proficiency in full-stack web development — JavaScript/TypeScript frontend frameworks (React, Vue, or Angular) and Python or Node.js backend services.
• Experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL) and real-time data handling.
• Hands-on experience with REST API design and development.
• Familiarity with containerization tools (Docker) and Linux environments.
• Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills with the ability to work effectively in a cross-functional, fast-paced manufacturing environment.
• 3–5 years of relevant software engineering experience (Early Career EXP track) or >5 years of relevant experience (EXP track).

Preferred qualifications:

• Experience with industrial/manufacturing systems integration — SECS/GEM, OEE frameworks, MES (Manufacturing Execution System), or equipment monitoring platforms.
• Familiarity with Apache Kafka or similar event-streaming platforms for real-time data ingestion.
• Experience with Kubernetes (K8s), CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI), and production deployment on Linux server environments.
• Knowledge of AMHS (Automated Material Handling Systems) and their data interfaces is a strong plus.
• Experience developing mobile-responsive or wearable-facing interfaces (smartwatch/PDA web apps, push notification systems).
• Familiarity with semiconductor back-end manufacturing processes (Wire Bond, Die Attach, Dispense, Assembly, Test, Bump & Probe).
• Experience with software architecture in multi-site, multi-tenant web applications.
• Knowledge of SQL and time-series data analysis; experience with data visualization libraries (Chart.js, D3, or equivalent).
• Experience working in Agile/Scrum delivery environments with version control (Git/Bitbucket) and issue tracking (JIRA, Confluence).

Added Advantage:

• Prior experience building factory floor dashboards, ERP/MES UIs, or industrial IoT platforms.
• Knowledge of alarm management systems, equipment downtime tracking, or OEE/TEEP metrics.
