Key Responsibilities

  • Define process requirements, success criteria, Design-of-Experiments (DOE), and characterization plans.
  • Drive root-cause analyses, failure mechanism studies, and improvement loops to achieve performance, yield, and reliability targets.
  • Translate product requirements into detailed process specifications and control strategies.
  • Manage technology transfer from pilot line to high-volume manufacturing, leading technical discussions for onsite process transfers.
  • Establish critical process windows, statistical control limits, and ramp-readiness criteria with equipment teams.
  • Coordinate and report on ramp performance tracking, including yield, scrap, cycle time, and tool capability, driving gap closure.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering (Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, or related fields).
  • 4+ years of experience in Interconnect Plating process engineering, process development, or as a process engineer in a high-volume wafer level package manufacturing fab.
  • Strong proficiency in DOE, SPC, data analytics, and FMEA.
  • Proven ability to troubleshoot complex manufacturing issues in a high-volume environment.
  • Excellent technical documentation and stakeholder management skills.
  • Experience scaling processes from R&D through Pilot to High-Volume Manufacturing (HVM).
