Job description

This Module Process engineer will support the setup and ramp of our next-generation semiconductor Nanospace.

Own process qualification for newly installed tool(s) (e.g., Bonding, Etch, CVD/PVD, CMP, Plating, etc.) to support Nano Space and P4.0 startup.

Collaborate with APG and factory teams to set up MES/RMS and pre-production line for successful ramp-up.

Sustain and optimize assigned process modules for internal test vehicle builds supporting heterogeneous integration.

Monitor tool performance, yield, and defectivity; drive corrective actions.

Partner with Business Units (BU) to enable key customer projects and technology transfers.

Execute DOE for recipe development and process optimization to improve cost, cycle time, and quality.

Apply model-based problem solving and root cause analysis for excursions; implement preventive measures.

Work closely with integration, BU, and operations teams to meet startup and ramp objectives.

Maintain process specifications, FMEA, and train technicians/associates for operational readiness.

Requirements

• PhD/ Master/ Bachelor in Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering or related studies
• 3 years and above of process-related experience in the semiconductor industry
• Strong knowledge of semiconductor processes (e.g., Etch, CMP, CVD/PVD, Plating, Bonding, etc.)
