Senior Data Engineer EMD Electronics Darmstadt, Germany
The semiconductor industry has encountered significant supply chain disruptions over the last several years due to factors such as the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical tensions, and dramatic market fluctuations, highlighting the urgent need for improved resilience and cost efficiency. As the sector anticipates a resurgence led by demand for AI-based products and services, developing robust, forward-looking solutions for supply chain and manufacturing process optimization is key.
Toward this end, EMD Electronics has developed a cloud-based, integrated platform that utilizes both traditional supply chain management principles and AI/ML methodologies to create an end-to-end supply chain digital twin. This solution enables proactive risk management via simulation of resilience-testing scenarios in a multi-echelon context, enhancing long-term strategic planning efforts and helping the business to navigate disruptions with confidence and agility. Furthermore, it offers advanced demand forecasting capabilities and prescriptive solutions for inventory sizing and allocation, allowing supply chain planners to strike the optimal balance between maximizing customer service levels and minimizing inventory holding costs.
EMD Electronic's integrated platform is built on top of a powerful ontology layer, which also enables innovative solutions in the areas of manufacturing and quality process optimization. For example, full batch traceability is provided across the entire product lifecycle, from raw material receipt to production to customer delivery. The ontology layer also facilitates accelerated development and deployment of digital tools for multivariate quality control, cycle time analysis, and virtual metrology. The cumulative effect of these capabilities is reduced cycle times, more consistent quality, improved operational efficiency, and higher levels of customer satisfaction.
