Proud Alumna (ECE-’89) Ms. Premila Josephine Manager - Product Development Engineering, Advanced Micro Devices, Singapore

How do you reflect on your association with the then Hindustan College of Engineering (HCE) and now, Hindustan Institute of Technology and Science (HITS)?

It is awesome to see the growth of my alma mater. The Management has built a solid foundation under the leadership of late Dr. KCG Verghese through exemplary planning and foresightedness right from moving the premises from St. Thomas Mount to Padur and introducing several programmes.

Could you highlight some of the notable corporate projects you were involved with?

I worked in the semiconductor industry for the past 20+ years with the global giant AMD and had the opportunity of handling products using technologies ranging from 130nm to 7nm. I have, i) Led Teams on the successful Launch of Athlon and Ryzen series microprocessors & Radeon series graphics processors. ii) Instituted T-TEC, a Technical Training Excellence Centre, nurturing the spirit of knowledge sharing and continuous learning. iii) Spearheaded the Master Data Management, which not only benefits specific products but impacts all the products manufactured and shipped from the company.

What are your success habits?

I believe in transformational leadership and in applying its principles. I develop and communicate a strategic vision to my team, as Sa vision is a positive image or model of the future that energizes and unifies employees; then I model the vision, encourage the team to experiment, and build their commitment to the vision by involving them in the process of shaping the organization’s vision.

What is your message to the youngsters brimming with life and energy as they will be entering into the corporate world soon?

Youth is the phase in every person’s life that is filled with enthusiasm, energy and opportunities. Use it to the fullest to explore and soar high by observing, learning and growing and holding on to a positive attitude. Above all build your EQ (Emotional Quotient) & AQ (Adversity Quotient) as well besides IQ, for they are the key prerequisites for growing in your career and start leading teams.

Would you elaborate on the Community Support Services Initiative that you have recently launched?

Rendering services to the community is not an option but a responsibility of every human. The experiences as a member of the KCC Community Center Singapore, OLPS Church L&C Committee, and AMD CSC Committee led me to institute a community services program in HEAAC with 2 targets - to serve the underprivileged, and to instill the spirit of service in our alumni members. We successfully launched this program on 29 May 2022 with ‘Willing Hearts’ a charity organization that provides food for 11,000 people daily to over 70 locations island-wide. HEAAC plans to share its time in various organizations on a quarterly/ monthly basis and grow this initiative to benefit the needy.
