Responsibilities
- Deploy, configure, and customize a commercial MES solution across existing and future fabrication, packaging, and characterization tools.
- Translate superconducting quantum device fabrication flows into MES routings and traceability structures, and evolve them as processes, material stacks, design rules, and equipment capabilities change.
- Analyze fabrication, electrical test, and cryogenic characterization data to identify process variability, tool effects, drift, yield limitations, and failure modes.
- Correlate process conditions with superconducting material and device performance, and propose data-driven improvement plans.
- Design and implement APIs, scripts, file-based interfaces, and database connections to integrate existing and future equipment with the MES, including tools that do not support SECS/GEM.
- Configure the MES to extract and store critical equipment/process data, and implement preventive and usage-based maintenance tracking, including tool status, alarms, counters, and maintenance history.
- Build dashboards and reports for process monitoring, equipment performance, yield, variability, and engineering investigations, ensuring traceability at the lot, wafer, chip, process-step, equipment, and test-result levels.
- Identify, investigate, and manually correct erroneous or inconsistent MES/database entries when operator-filled information is incorrect, while maintaining clear documentation of corrections.
- Train and support MES users across process integration, nanofabrication, packaging, characterization, test, and operations teams.
- Provide day-to-day troubleshooting, documentation, user guidance, and act as the main technical interface with the MES vendor for upgrades, integrations, configuration changes, and issue resolution.
Requirements
- Engineering, Master or PhD. degree in Physics, Materials Science, Micro/Nanofabrication, or a related fields.
- 3+ years of experience on semiconductor or superconducting circuits nanofabrication in an R&D or prototyping environment.
- Strong understanding of fabrication process flows ****in superconducting devices or semiconductor manufacturing.
- Hand-on experience with MES configuration, equipment/data integration, APIs or scripting, SQL databases, equipment logs, and data analysis tools such as Python, JMP, or equivalent.
- Comfort with R&D fab constraints: rapid iteration, experimental splits, frequent process changes.
- Experience building dashboards or reports for engineering and management audiences.
- Strong communication skills and ability to work closely with process, fabrication and characterization engineers, operators, software teams, and external vendors.
