• You can lead or coordinate projects to minimize defects, improve process control, reduce rework, study process windows for new devices, qualify new tools, evaluate new consumables, and develop new processes for better performance and lower cost.
• You can analyze E-test and yield data, and disposition problem wafers and lots, while writing E-test procedures, specifications, documentation, and test programs.
• You can utilize advanced analytical tools and techniques, and participate in teams to solve wafer fabrication problems.
• You can write process capability reports for process engineering and customer review.
• You can lead or participate in intra- or inter-departmental efforts to manage process crises, including containing damage, investigating and identifying root causes, and implementing corrective and preventive actions.
• You can participate in inter-departmental projects focused on technology development and yield enhancement.
• You can help drive continuous improvement projects to improve D0's, reduce scrap, and enhance device performance.

Job Requirements

Must Have:

• M.S. or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Physics, or Materials Science.
• Candidates with process and/or device experience in 180nm and/or Silicon Photonics technologies are strongly preferred.
• Strong ability to communicate and present technical concepts and analyses clearly and effectively.
• Demonstrated knowledge and hands-on experience in one or more of the following semiconductor process areas: Process Integration, Device Physics, Thin Films, Etch, CMP, Photolithography, Diffusion, Implant, or E-Test.

Nice to Have:

• Experience with SPC and DOE is required, 8D, FMEA, and structured problem solving is preferred.
