Key Responsibilities

  • Drive end-to-end process integration for advanced semiconductor device fabrication.
  • Define and optimize process flows to achieve performance, yield, and reliability targets.
  • Collaborate with module owners (lithography, etch, deposition, metrology, etc.) to align process development with integration requirements.
  • Conduct Design-of-Experiments (DOE) to identify process sensitivities and improve manufacturability.
  • Analyze optical test data to provide feedback for process tuning and device improvement.
  • Collaborate with design, process, and operations teams to ensure smooth technology transfer into volume manufacturing.
  • Troubleshoot integration issues and drive root-cause analysis for process-related failures.
  • Support technology roadmaps by contributing to process integration strategy and scalability.

Requirements

  • Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, or a related field.
  • Proven work experience of at least 5 years in the industry.
  • Demonstrated experience (>3 years) in process integration, preferably R&D within a high-volume manufacturing environment.
  • Strong understanding of nanotechnology processes, including lithography, etch, deposition, CMP, and metrology.
  • Proficiency in statistical data analysis and process optimization/control techniques (e.g., Design of Experiments, SPC).
  • Ability to read and understand layout files (GDS and OASIS) is required.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills for cross-functional collaboration.
