Senior Thin Films Process Engineer: Sputtering, CVD & RTA

Coherent Corp.; Sherman (TX); In loco; USD 110.000 - 150.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

Coherent Corp. is seeking a seasoned Semiconductor Process Engineer to develop and optimize sputtering, evaporation, CVD, and RTA processes for metal and dielectric films.

You will own process windows, transfer to production, and collaborate on yield improvements and new product development. The role requires hands-on experience with sputtering, CVD, RTA, and thin-film metrology, and involves process qualification, data analysis, and documentation.

Competenze

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Materials Science, Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Physics, or a related technical field.

Mansioni

• Develop, optimize, and maintain sputtering, evaporation, CVD, and RTA processes for metal and dielectric films.
• Establish robust process windows and transfer new processes into production.
• Support process integration, yield improvement, and new product development.
• Serve as the process owner for sputtering, evaporation, CVD, and RTA equipment.
• Troubleshoot process and equipment issues to improve reliability, uptime, and yield.
• Support equipment qualifications, preventive maintenance, and continuous improvement activities.
• Characterize thin films using profilometry, four-point probe, ellipsometry, SEM, XRD, and AFM.
• Monitor film thickness, sheet resistance, stress, uniformity, adhesion, and surface morphology.
• Utilize SPC, DOE, and statistical analysis to improve process capability and reduce variation.
• Support recipe development, automated recipe download, and recipe verification.
• Work with automation and equipment teams to maintain process limits, alarms, and fault detection systems.
