Certified Professionals

Gim-Wae is leading a team to manage the ESD control program across all manufacturing sites in
Malaysia and supporting plants and subcons in PRC.

He continuously broadens his knowledge and consciously reflects it on semiconductor processes, then
designs the plant-certifiable ESD control program. With that, ESD has become one of the key fields in the
company's expertise program, and Gim-Wae is leading it.

He was appointed to be specialised in ESD since he was a fresh graduate and has over 10 years of
working experience. Gim-Wae progressively acquires certification over his career journey that started as
an iNARTE associate engineer in 2009, an iNARTE Engineer in 2016, TR53 Technician in 2017, Program
Manager in 2022 and continues. He has several published presentations at the ESDA symposium and is a
member of the local organising committee (LOC).

He has a master’s degree in mechanical engineering, graduated from the Engineering Council UK and is a
tutor in material engineering.
