How much do epitaxy jobs pay per year?

As of Jun 1, 2026, the average yearly pay for epitaxy in the United States is $88,873.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $69,500.00 and $108,000.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What does an Epitaxy engineer do?

An Epitaxy engineer specializes in growing thin crystalline layers on semiconductor wafers using techniques like MOCVD or MBE. They optimize process parameters to ensure precise material quality, thickness, and composition. Their work is critical for manufacturing semiconductor devices such as LEDs, lasers, and integrated circuits.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Epitaxy position, and why are they important?

To thrive in an Epitaxy role, a strong background in materials science, semiconductor physics, and experience with crystal growth techniques—often supported by a degree in physics, engineering, or a related field—is essential. Familiarity with advanced epitaxial growth systems such as MBE (Molecular Beam Epitaxy) or MOVPE (Metal-Organic Vapor Phase Epitaxy), as well as the use of related analytical instruments, is highly valued. Attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and effective teamwork are crucial soft skills in this position. These qualities ensure precise material fabrication, reliable device performance, and successful collaboration in high-tech manufacturing environments.

What are some typical daily responsibilities of an Epitaxy engineer or technician?

As an Epitaxy engineer or technician, your daily responsibilities often include operating and maintaining sophisticated epitaxial growth equipment, preparing substrates, monitoring growth parameters, and conducting quality checks on produced layers. You may also analyze wafer samples using tools like X-ray diffraction or electron microscopy to ensure that physical and electrical properties meet specifications. Collaboration with process engineers, device designers, and R&D teams is common to troubleshoot issues and optimize material quality. This hands-on, detail-oriented role plays a critical part in the development of advanced semiconductors used in electronics and optoelectronics.

Job description

** This position is not eligible for visa sponsorship for external candidates. Candidates cannot require sponsorship now or in the future**

Job's mission

As a Senior Equipment Technician on the EPI team, you play a critical role in ensuring the performance, reliability, and safety of ASM epitaxy systems that directly impact device quality and yield. Supporting two ASM EPI toolsets, you combine strong equipment expertise with process awareness to troubleshoot complex issues, lead technical escalations, and prevent recurrence. Your work enables advanced semiconductor innovation while strengthening safety, operational discipline, and continuous improvement across the factory.

SHIFT:
 
 3:00 PM-12:00 AM shift, with a two-week on-call rotation every eight weeks, including weekend coverage.

What you will be working on

  • Support and maintain two ASM EPI toolsets, ensuring high availability, stability, and performance
  • Perform advanced troubleshooting across mechanical, electrical, software, vacuum, thermal, and gas delivery subsystems
  • Clearly document, present, and explain technical issues during tool escalations to enable effective resolution
  • Apply basic process method knowledge to enhance rootcause analysis and correlate hardware behavior with process results
  • Resolve recurring alarms using standard fault trees; appropriately escalate unfamiliar or complex faults
  • Lead structured rootcause investigations using 8D, 5 Whys, and related methodologies
  • Identify trends and recurring issues; implement corrective and preventive actions to reduce repeat events
  • Advise on complex retrofit kits, coordinating service activities with the production plan to minimize impact
  • Strictly follow safety procedures; help define work instructions and reinforce safe behaviors across the team
  • Ensure compliance and support internal and external audits
  • Maintain accurate service records, escalation documentation, and maintenance logs
  • Mentor junior technicians, particularly in disciplined troubleshooting and structured problem solving
  • Coordinate closely with escalation resources, engineering, process, and crossfunctional partners

What we are looking for

  • Technical school (2year program), or BS with 0-1 years of experience, or 5+ years of relevant equipment experience
  • Strong mechanical and electrical troubleshooting skills in a semiconductor manufacturing environment
  • Experience diagnosing vacuum, thermal, and gas delivery systems
  • Ability to clearly document and communicate technical issues during escalations
  • Demonstrated commitment to safety, compliance, and procedural discipline
  • Ability to work independently in a fastpaced, highvolume manufacturing environment
  • Comfortable using computerbased tools for documentation and tracking

What sets you apart

  • Experience supporting ASM EPI systems or similar epitaxy platforms
  • Experience working across multiple tool configurations
  • Ability to integrate equipment behavior with process method understanding
  • Proven use of 8D, 5 Whys, or similar structured problemsolving methodologies
  • Experience resolving recurring alarms and systemic equipment issues
  • Familiarity with retrofit execution and aligning service work to production schedules
  • Experience mentoring technicians and improving diagnostic standards
  • Strong collaboration skills across engineering, process, and escalation teams
