Litho and Etch Process Engineer

At Qurv, we create a paradigm shift in computer vision-based applications (automotive, XR, and robotics) by developing mass-deployable infrared image sensors that can enable machines to see better and more, unlocking new functionalities.

We are looking for a world-class Litho and Etch Process Engineer to join our Barcelona team and work together to push the limits of our QSTACKTM process technology. You will be working closely together with process, integration and device design functions to advance our capabilities and support the transfer towards waferscale manufacturing.

How a day might look like

• Development of advanced patterning processes for colloidal quantum dot-based image sensors using lithography and etching techniques.
• Assess device performance, and correlate with process parameters.
• Develop in-line metrology procedures and correlate end-of-line data to process parameters.
• Design and execute the design of experiments for device optimization.
• Gather specifications from internal customers and communicate requirements to other process module owners to deliver high-quality products and prototypes.
• Report results to cross-functional teams for feedback and further requirements definition.
• Work as needed with teams in design, process, equipment support, testing, and failure analysis to fully understand device performance and potential failure modes.
• Contribute towards transfer to waferscale processes and process troubleshooting.
• Drive to improve yield, streamline processes, and decrease cycle times.
• Work with suppliers and industrial / academic collaborators on new material and process development.

About you

• In-depth knowledge and hands-on experience in lithography techniques.
