Jobbeschreibung

Your mission

Drive yield improvement and production excellence in thin-film lithium niobate photonics through data-driven design of experiments, defect reduction, hands-on process expertise, and cross-functional collaboration.

• Begin by acquiring in-depth, hands-on knowledge of our integrated photonics fabrication process based on thin film lithium niobate technology
• Identify potential yield-limiting defect sources; define an aggressive defect reduction roadmap; own the results
• Use statistical process control principles to sustain production line health and prevent defect induced excursion events
• Work with fabrication engineers and developers to identify and eliminate process and station defect sources
• Design and execute experiments; interpret and extract insightful results from complex data sets to implement solutions in a timely manner
• Install, qualify and sustain inline inspection and review equipment to expand capability for inline defect detection
• Collaborate effectively with integration and process organization partners to identify technology gaps and deficiencies, evaluate and qualify mitigation and continuous improvement solutions

Your profile

• Bachelor's or higher degree in Electrical Engineering, Material Science, Physics, or Chemistry related fields
• Hands-on experience with mixed microfabrication processes and cleanroom methods
• Experience in metrology techniques such as SEM, AFM, and thin film characterisation
• Knowledge of industry standard approaches for yield and quality management will be beneficial
• Ability to work both independently and collaboratively with cross-functional, geographically dispersed teams from diverse backgrounds
• Very good language skill in English, both written and spoken; German can be an advantage
• Python skills are always welcome

Why us?

• We hire for attitude and train for skills.
• We encourage self responsibility and accelerate professional development.
• We move fast and encourage experimentation.
• You can work on hard scientific and engineering problems that push the boundaries of what's possible.
• You have the opportunity to be part of developing breakthrough photonic computing technology and have a lasting impact on the future of computing.
• You can be part of a passionate international, highly skilled cross functional team.
• You will have access to the founders of the company.
