• Working parent? We provide childcare assistance and paid parental leave.
• Student? We offer continuing education assistance.
• Looking for community? There are many ways to get involved, from Employee Resource Groups to local outreach.

Here’s the Gist:

• Help develop, own and sustain the Dry Etch process and related manufacturing processes in coordination with process development and manufacturing partners. You will ensure the process has high process capability and designed for High Volume Semiconductor manufacturing.

The Day-to-Day:

• Own and sustain the Dry Etch process area or a part thereof along with other department engineers and technicians as part of a 24*7 High Volume Silicon Carbide Wafer Fab. Respond to any process deviations in a timely and systematic manner. Document findings and present them succinctly to a wide-ranging audience.
• Perform process and capability studies to ensure that key parameters are identified, monitored, and controlled.
• Analyze data using sound statistical methodology (SPC) to drive process, efficiency, and quality improvements.
• Establish relationships across various departments to drive cohesive learning and cross functional problem solving.
• Monitor and analyze etch processes to ensure consistency and quality in production, making adjustments as necessary.
• Collaborate with maintenance and equipment engineering to drive tool/chamber matching initiatives and develop enhanced tool health monitoring techniques using fault detection and classification (FDC).
• Conduct root cause analysis of process discrepancies and implement effective corrective actions.
• Present technical data and project updates to peers and management in both casual and formal environment.
• Exhibit strong communication skills to ensure crisp execution on projects with high efficiency and quality.
• Ensure work instructions and Out of Control Action Plans are up to date and area personnel are trained and certified to safely operate the tools.
• This role involves working one weekend day and occasional off shift coverage based on production needs.

This Job is Right for You if You Have (Minimum Requirements):

• BS in Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, or Equivalent.
• 5+ years of experience in a semiconductor environment, specifically within dielectric etch and/or metal etch. Experience with 200mm Applied Materials platform is a plus!
• Understanding of semiconductor processes and equipment in Fabrication.
• Proficient in technical writing and presentations.

This role may require additional duties and/or assignments as designated by management.

We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
