It is reported that Rutger Wijburg has been raised to senior vice president. Rutger Wijburg is known as general manager of Fab 1 in Dresden for GlobalFoundries Inc. (Milpitas, Calif.).

Wijburg was a senior vice president at his previous job, Operations Manager Front End for NXP Semiconductors NV (Eindhoven, The Netherlands) which he left nearly a year ago.

Now he has regained that title as an acknowledgement of his achievements in turning Fab 1 around. "Fab performance has significantly improved, our capacity ramp is on track, delivery commitments are consistently being met, and important technology milestones are hit right on plan," said Ajit Manocha, CEO of GlobalFoundries, in a statement. "Today, Fab 1 is recognized as a leading foundry fab, engaging industry-leading customers for 28-nm production, and shipping best foundry yields at the 32-nm node."

Wijburg indicated: "We hired several hundred new employees, completed a new clean room building and are right on track for our 28-nm ramp."
