Eric Zhou

Led cross-functional teams to launch IVD medical devices, implemented process validation and supplier improvements, reducing non-conformance by 90% in six months and cutting line costs 17% through CapEx and continuous improvement initiatives.

Led global technology transfers for semiconductor-based diagnostic platforms to high-volume production, negotiated supplier contracts, and established manufacturing and QC process maps that improved production readiness and reduced risks.

Led launches of new laser products and implemented process control and yield-improvement plans for photonics packaging and chip fabrication, maintaining manufacturing documentation and ensuring on-time delivery.

Served as technical lead for MEMS display process development and high-volume transfer, implemented a SF6 passivation process saving $6M and led cross-module resolution of gate leakage issues to improve device reliability.

Led feasibility and process improvement projects for scale-up and commercial manufacturing, implementing chemical-saving and equipment retrofits that reduced cycle time 46% on key tools and cut wet-etch chemical use by up to 45%.

Completed a Master of Science focusing on operations engineering, materials, and corrosion to support manufacturing and reliability efforts.

Completed a Master of Science in Physical Chemistry with emphasis on materials and chemical processes.

Earned a Bachelor of Science in Physical Chemistry, providing foundational knowledge in chemistry and materials science.
