About the job
We are looking for individuals who thrive on making an impact and want the excitement of being on a team that wins.
Job Summary:
As part of the uncooled detector (focal plane array) research and development team, the successful candidate will have responsibility for engineering wafer fab processes including plasma etch, thin film deposition, lithography, and wet cleans for next generation infrared detector designs. Candidate will design and implement new processes and automate or improve existing ones to support aggressive technology development goals. They will also own different tools and associated modules in the area. Candidate will characterize wafers and devices using SEM and or FIB/SEM. As part of process development, hands-on wafer fabrication and characterization of pilot lots is required. This is the right place for a self-directed, goal-oriented, collaborative engineer. The work is varied and challenging where creative problem-solving opportunities are many. Our culture is collaborative, supportive, and fun. The work environment is mixed general office and clean room/lab.
Primary Duties & Responsibilities:
  • Innovate new processes to enable the technology roadmap
  • Design and execute experiments, analyze data, draw conclusions, document, and communicate results
  • Own tools and process modules in the area
  • Establish feasibility of new processes through hands-on processing of pilot lots on production equipment
  • Characterize results using quantitative metrology tools
  • Automate or improve established processes
  • Document methods and workflows in MES-ready format
  • Plan for statistical process control (SPC) practices as appropriate
  • Evaluate production yield challenges and recommend improvements

Job Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in related technical discipline required
  • 0-5 years of related experience desired
  • Proficient computer skills - Word, Excel & Outlook
  • Ability to communicate clearly in written and spoken English
  • Strong data analysis skills (fluency in Excel, MatLAB JMP, Python, SQL, or equivalent is helpful)
  • Ability to use inspection equipment (microscopes, FIB/SEM, interferometers), semiconductor fabrication equipment, and wet bench chemistry
  • Direct experience with one or more key wafer fabrication processes
  • Familiarity and/or strong desire to learn microelectronic/semiconductor and MEMS fabrication techniques
  • Applicants must be either a U.S. citizen or Perm Resident

Desired Background
  • Wafer processing tools for semiconductor or MEMS fabrication
  • Infrared detector technology
  • Statistical Process Control and Design of Experiments familiarity desired
  • Lean Six Sigma or other problem solving/decision making methods (8D, Kepner-Tregoe, or equivalent)

What We Offer
  • Competitive Salary & Benefits Package
  • Health, Dental, Vision, and Life Insurance starting Day 1
  • Paid Vacation, Sick Time, and Holidays
  • 401(k) with Company Match
