Established in 1987 and headquartered in Taiwan, TSMC pioneered the pure-play foundry business model with an exclusive focus on manufacturing its customers’ products. In 2023, the company served 528 customers with 11,895 products for high performance computing, smartphones, IoT, automotive, and consumer electronics, and is the world’s largest provider of logic ICs with annual capacity of 16 million 12-inch equivalent wafers. TSMC operates fabs in Taiwan as well as manufacturing subsidiaries in Washington State, Japan and China, and its ESMC subsidiary plans to begin construction on a fab in Germany in 2024. In Arizona, TSMC is building three fabs, with the first starting 4nm production in 2025, the second by 2028, and the third by the end of the decade.

Advanced Quality System Development (AQSD) is part of TSMC's Intelligent Manufacturing Center (IMC), responsible for three main directions:

1. Use statistical methods and conditional monitoring to inspect fab control charts, providing early warning of abnormal product yields; offer a fab defense system settings comparison platform to check that machines meet the internal control anomaly conditions set by the engineering department.
2. Develop online fab analysis platforms through Big Data, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning techniques for online yield/defect analysis to ensure the quality of wafers produced in the fab.
3. Develop systems and provide logical operations to control and implement escape mechanisms for material batch changes, measurement stages, and inspection stages, ensuring quality and optimizing product sampling rules.
Job Responsibilities
1. Apply machine learning/optimization algorithm to build up models for optimizing semiconductor production.
2. Develop analysis and optimization methods to enhance product quality, increase tool productivity and improve people productivity.
3. Design, develop and test prediction models with real applications in manufacturing.
4. Build a flexible framework to speed up the development process of AI models, with a focus on Large Language Models (LLMs) serving.
5. Turn exciting AI prototypes/ideas into products, leveraging LLMs and other advanced AI technologies.
6. Develop next-generation AI backend systems related to large-scale real-time data access, collection, analytics and monitoring.
7. Establish and maintain MLops processes and tools, including model deployment, monitoring, and automation.
8. Continuously improve the quality of AI production systems, particularly those utilizing LLMs.
Job Qualifications
1. Master's Degree or above in an engineering field such as Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Industry Engineering, Engineering Management, Computer science, Information Engineering.
2. Exhibit good and open communication skills, be able to work within cross-functional teams, including internal and external partners.
