About Behnam A.

After completing my degree in Electrical Engineering, I joined the \"Electrical Distribution Power\" company aka KEDC as an Electronic engineer to manage the newly created R&D department. During my time at KEDC I was involved with many projects, such as custom machine learning, control systems, SCADA for a solar pond and more.I migrated to the United States in June of and immediately joined \"Advanced Integrated Manufacturing Solutions Co.\" aka AIMS,Co as a Programmer Analyst to work on variety of solutions and in 2001 I worked at the BMW manufacturing company in Spartanburg SC to develop and deploy the MES and Defect Tracking systems for the white-body department. I grew significantly in my 10 years with the team and developed and deployed the Manufacturing Life Cycle Management suite, implementing that in a variety of different manufacturing companies. Working with a large multi-international company such as BMW enabled me to move to another incredible multi-international organization. Cree hired me in 2010, and I started my career working with the IT department as a senior Manufacturing Programmer Analyst. I spent 5 years learning a lot of new systems, and I contributed significantly by implementing many cost-saving solutions, such as planning and scheduling, device sorting and binning, and various MES integration small and large projects with Camstar in China.Being interested in manufacturing systems, I attended NC State engineering school as a part-time student and obtained my master’s degree in Integrated Manufacturing System Engineering (IMSE) while I was working full time at Cree.In 2015, I accepted a new challenging position with a disruptive startup team in RTP. Phononic devices gave me a platform to own, learn and manage a variety of projects. We implemented the Camstar Siemens/ Opcenter MES system and provided many tool and system integrations. Device Automation was one of the impactful and successful projects that I was proudly involved in which saved a significant amount of money and time for the business.In late 2019 I was called to rejoin Cree which soon changed their name to WolfSpeed in the IT organization to manage an awesome team of MES manufacturing business analysts and developers to help consolidating systems and provide software solutions to complex production problems.I am now managing the Manufacturing Solution Architect team in IT in Wolfspeed. Our team is proudly improving and implementing the large portion of current and future enterprise systems and processes.
