Johor Bahru Substrate (JBS) Plate Operation is a high-technology chemical-mechanical operation responsible for depositing nickel-phosphorus onto the aluminum substrate memory disks used in Seagate hard drives. Our team of more than 120 operators, technicians and engineers produces approximately 100,000 high-quality disks each day. We focus on delivering best-in-class disk quality at the lowest cost and in the safest manner, while maintaining a high level of motivation and integrity. We believe continuous learning, focus and hard work drive the success of the organization and the growth of our people. Guided by Seagate’s core values of innovation, integrity and inclusion, we are committed to building a positive working culture.
