Discrete semiconductors and passive components for automotive, industrial, and defense markets
Vishay manufactures discrete semiconductors and passive electronic components across automotive, industrial, computing, consumer, telecom, military, aerospace, and medical sectors. The tech stack reflects a traditional discrete-component manufacturer scaling production: heavy reliance on SAP (ECC, SD, APO) for supply-chain and order management, complemented by simulation tools (ANSYS, COMSOL, LTspice) for design validation and manufacturing execution systems (MES) for floor control. Active migration from SAP ECC to S/4HANA signals infrastructure modernization, while the hiring mix—dominated by manufacturing (256 roles) and engineering (190)—underscores focus on process yield, cost reduction, and new automotive MOSFET introductions.
Notable leadership hires: Section Head, Quality Control Lead, Chief Engineer, Planning Head, Implantation Head
