, /PRNewswire/ — Semiconductor equipment supplier E&R Engineering Corp. (8027.TW) today announced its new office in Hillsboro, Portland. Following the establishment of its Phoenix, Arizona site, this second North American hub marks a milestone in providing localized support within the U.S. semiconductor ecosystem.
Closer to Key Customers, with Order Visibility Extending to 2027
Driven by surging demand for advanced packaging, E&R’s dual-site strategy (Portland and Phoenix) ensures “Real-time Response” for Tier-1 clients. Kevin Chang, General Manager of E&R USA, noted that order visibility in the North American market now extends into 2027. Our dual-site strategy in Portland and Phoenix significantly bolsters our service capacity for Tier-1 clients and shortens technical support cycles. Notably, E&R’s first Phoenix collaboration with industry partners will jointly provide after-sales support and parts trading for North American end-customers.
AIS: A New Revenue Engine
Leveraging its extensive experience in hardware-software integration, E&R is introducing its AIS (Automation Integration Service) solution to North America. Unlike traditional single-equipment offerings, AIS integrates multiple process modules into unified, custom systems. This “design-to-implementation” model has already secured orders and started contributing to revenue. E&R expects significant growth between late 2026 and 2027 as AIS gains wider adoption in advanced manufacturing.
Building a Taiwan-U.S. Semiconductor Partner Platform
Kevin Chang further noted the Portland office acts as a “Semiconductor Partner Platform,” bridging Taiwanese industry peers and supply chain partners to the U.S. market. This connects Taiwan-U.S. ecosystems for global competition, with several partners already engaging end-customers to integrate Taiwanese supply chains.
To support expansion, E&R Engineering has announced a large-scale North American recruitment drive for key roles:
- Field Service Engineers: Providing on-site equipment maintenance and process optimization.
- Project Managers (PM): Managing multinational project coordination and AIS solutions, facilitating alignment between clients and supply chain partners
