Job Responsibilities:
- Develop and sustain Dry etch processes in R&D and Small volume manufacturing environment
- Responsible for performing professional process engineering research, from the concept to the final process development for a wide variety of materials (Metals, Silicon, Dielectrics, SiC and other speciality materials)
- May conceive and plan projects involving the definition and selection of new materials, concepts and approaches in the processing or developing of new processes.
- Compiles and evaluates test data to determine appropriate limits and variables for process specifications.
- Championing engineering experiments for process characterization to drive quality and yield improvement
- Set up and collect the experimental data and generate reports for internal and customer distribution.
- Design and complete DOE (Design of Experiments) evaluations to characterize process window for new requirements
- Work closely with senior staff and process integrators to understand technology roadmaps, process capability requirements and business issues/ challenges.
- Act as a resource for colleagues with less experience; lead small projects with manageable risks
- Act as subject matter expert for both internal and external stakeholders.
Requirements:
- PhD in Materials Science, Metallurgy, Electrical, Electronics, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry or Physics; or relevant field science and engineering fields.
