 Jeffrey
See was born in Singapore in 1945. He graduated from
the Singapore Polytechnic in 1965 and went on to become a Chartered
Electronic Engineer at the Institution of Electrical Engineers
(IEE) in the UK.
In 1969, See joined SGS Microelettronica, a forerunner company
of ST, as a Quality Supervisor at its first Assembly and Test
facility in Toa Payoh, Singapore. He rose through the ranks and
was promoted to Deputy Back-End Plant Manager in 1980.
In 1983, See was appointed to manage the start-up of the region’s
first wafer fabrication plant (125mm) in Ang Mo Kio, Singapore,
and he became General Manager of the front-end operations in 1992.
In 2001, See was appointed Vice President and Assistant General
Manager of Central Front-End Manufacturing and General Manager
of the Asia Pacific Manufacturing Operations, responsible for
wafer fabrication and electrical wafer sort in the region.
Under See’s direction, the Ang Mo Kio plant has grown to
become the single largest volume-manufacturing facility within
ST, generating approximately 45% of the Company’s worldwide
production. His profound knowledge of volume manufacturing processes,
coupled with strong background in quality management, helped See
develop ST’s front-end manufacturing complex in Ang Mo Kio
into a benchmark site for achievements in quality, cost, and cycle
time.
As one of the pioneers of Singapore’s semiconductor industry,
See has played an important role in building a base of core competence
and a cluster of supporting industries in this high value-added
manufacturing sector, which today is one of the largest contributors
to the region’s electronics industry.
In April 2006, Jeffrey See was appointed Corporate Vice President,
Packaging & Test Manufacturing (PTM) General Manager. Based
in Singapore, he oversees global operations of 14,000 people in
six plants spanning Malaysia, China, Malta, Morocco and Singapore.

of ten senior corporate executives in addition to the COO and
the CEO.
