TCB (Thermo Compression Bonding) Design Engineer
Location: Adimiralty
Working Days: 5 Day A Week
Working hours : 9:00am - 6:00pm
Salary : $6000 - $8000 (depends experience)
Overview
A TCB Design Engineer is responsible for designing, developing, and optimizing the TCB modules subsystem used in Thermo-Compression Bonding (TCB) equipment for advanced semiconductor packaging. This role is critical for ensuring precise, uniform, and rapid thermal control during Chip-to-Wafer or Chip-to-Substrate bonding, directly impacting process reliability, yield, and throughput.
Responsibilities
- Must-have: Design and develop innovative TCB module assemblies for Chip-to-Wafer or Chip-to-Substrate bonding; responsible for 3D design and 2D drawings, BOM management, FMEA, error budgeting, Design for Manufacturability and Assembly (DFMA); planning, scheduling, and costing of machine modules.
- Prototyping & Testing: Oversee fabrication of prototype modules and their integration with TCB platforms; analyze test results, identify design improvements, and troubleshoot failures related to temperature non-uniformity, inefficiency, or material degradation.
- Process & Manufacturing Support: Collaborate with Electrical, Vision and Software Engineers for machine integration; collaborate with process team to improve the bonding machine (e.g., bonder heads, stages, temperature/power controls); collaborate with manufacturing engineers to ensure DFMA and safe, robust assembly of module systems; support transfer of new heater designs from R&D to production, including documentation, BOM, and assembly guides.
- Compliance & Documentation: Document all designs, simulations, and test results according to quality management and IP standards; remain updated on relevant industry standards for environment, health and safety, contamination control, and semiconductor packaging equipment.
- Good-to-have: Thermal & Mechanical Analysis: Perform thermal simulations (CFD, FEA) to optimize heating/cooling profiles and minimize thermal gradients across the TCB bondhead/bondstage; design and validate cooling channels (e.g., for air or liquid) inside the bondhead/bondstage to achieve rapid cooling and enhance temperature uniformity; mounting of the heater assembly for micron-level Z positioning and planarity during operation.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
- Minimum 2–5 years of hands-on experience in design and development of equipment or semiconductor packaging or advanced interconnect processes.
- 3D/2D CAD knowledge, with experience in CREO Parametric preferred. Exposure to CREO Windchill PLM system is a plus.
- Experience with TCB or Laser Assisted bonding technologies is highly preferred.
- Familiarity with bonding equipment and analytical tools (X-ray, SAM, OM, etc.)
