About Ameer Zackery

I operate as a systems thinker embedded in operations — diagnosing how real systems behave under load, drift, and recovery, not just how they are designed.I operate as a Field Systems Architect — embedded in live operations, where system behavior, human decision-making, and time pressure intersect.My strength is translating between domains (mechanical ↔ electrical ↔ chemical ↔ software ↔ human) and identifying where documentation, metrics, or assumptions no longer reflect system reality.I specialize in understanding how complex cyber-physical systems fail — and how to restore trust, continuity, and resilience in mission-critical environments.My background spans advanced semiconductor manufacturing, automation, robotics, RF systems, and security-sensitive operations. I’ve spent my career diagnosing failures where physical systems, digital telemetry, and human procedures intersect, often under high pressure and low tolerance for error.With experience in CMP back-end operations, robotics recovery, RF diagnostics, and SOP development, my focus sits at the intersection of manufacturing reliability, cybersecurity, and national infrastructure resilience. I’m particularly interested in cyber-physical systems, smart factories, and semiconductor supply chain security.

Experience

1. Lead Technician

   Wolfspeed

   Dec 2024 — Present · Durham, NC, US

   Rapidly achieved operational mastery of CMP and supporting systems through system-level modeling rather than task-based learningStabilized equipment performance by identifying cross-system dependencies and failure propagation pathsExpanded role scope to include mentoring, system documentation, and cross-team knowledge transferActed as informal escalation point due to holistic understanding of system behavior
