Summary
Yang Zhao is a Process Manager and former PVD Engineer with over a decade of experience leading metal deposition tool performance, new technology transfers, and yield improvement programs at Intel and SMIC. He has progressed from hands-on process engineering—optimizing PECVD/PVD recipes, qualifying new tools and reducing cycle time—to managing a PVD group and developing multiple sub-leaders within the module. His background in materials science (Master’s from Dalian University of Technology) underpins strengths in failure analysis, plating, SPC, and FMEA-driven process control. Known for pragmatic project management and sustaining excellence, he also brings uncommon breadth by blending deep device-level process know-how with people development and cross-functional ISO/TMI responsibilities.
