Addressing the Skills Gap in the Semiconductor Industry
Smoothstack’s journey began with a focus on training and deploying cybersecurity and software professionals. As we partnered with leading tech companies, they requested us to bring our hire-train-deploy services into the advanced tech factories. From there, our expertise specialized into the semiconductor and semiconductor tool manufacturer space, where federal investment is driving rapid job growth.
Today, we are a trusted partner for some of the most advanced companies in the semiconductor industry.
An Innovative Approach to Scaling the Semiconductor Engineer Workforce
Our hire-train-deploy model launches a workforce precisely trained for the exact role, and ready to be productive on day one.
Step 1: We Recruit for Foundational Skills.
We source candidates differently from traditional workforce solutions and staffing agencies, tapping into unconventional pools such as early-career developers, transitioning military and veterans, and overlooked individuals.
Step 2: We Create Custom Training
We built an 8-12 week training program that matches the unique environment of each client, utilizing cutting edge technology to enhance learning.
Cohorts of semiconductor engineers can be trained simultaneously, using a combination of virtual training, 3-D rendering, Virtual Reality FABs and equipment, and on-site visits.
Step 3: We Deliver a Fully Trained Workforce
Upon completion, a custom-trained team of engineers are ready to seamlessly integrate into your teams.
Unmatched Retention
While the industry struggles with a 50% – 60% retention rate, Smoothstack achieves a 95% retention rate within the data center and semiconductor practices.
Scalable Solutions
From small pilot programs to full-scale deployments, we have the capacity to train and deploy large cohorts that meet the growing needs of our clients for the next decade.
