What does a MEMS engineer do?

A MEMS Engineer designs, develops, and tests micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) devices, which integrate mechanical and electrical components at a microscopic scale. They work on sensors, actuators, and other miniature technologies used in industries such as automotive, medical, and consumer electronics. Their role involves simulation, fabrication, testing, and optimization of MEMS devices to improve performance and reliability. Collaboration with multidisciplinary teams, including material scientists and electrical engineers, is also a key aspect of their work.

What does a typical workweek look like for a MEMS engineer?

A typical workweek for a MEMS Engineer involves a mix of hands-on fabrication in cleanroom facilities, simulation and modeling of device behavior, and working with cross-functional teams such as electrical, mechanical, and process engineers. You may spend time prototyping, characterizing MEMS devices using analysis equipment, and troubleshooting design or process issues. Regular meetings and collaboration with product development and quality assurance teams are common to ensure projects meet performance and reliability benchmarks. This dynamic environment offers continuous learning and the opportunity to see your work move from concept to production.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a MEMS engineer?

To thrive as a MEMS Engineer, you need a solid background in microfabrication, materials science, physics, and mechanical or electrical engineering, typically supported by a relevant bachelor's or master's degree. Familiarity with CAD tools, semiconductor processing equipment, cleanroom protocols, and software such as COMSOL Multiphysics or ANSYS is important, and industry credentials like Six Sigma certification can be beneficial. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and effective teamwork and communication abilities set successful candidates apart. These skills are vital to ensure precision in design, troubleshoot complex devices, and effectively collaborate across multidisciplinary teams in fast-paced environments.

Job Summary

The MEMS Test Production Engineer is responsible for ensuring smooth, efficient, and high-quality MEMS wafer-level testing. This role supports day-to-day production activities including prober management, probe card debug and calibration, vendor coordination, MES configuration, test program qualification, and test instruments troubleshooting. The engineer will also design and execute data-driven experiments (DOE) to improve yield, enhance test coverage, and reduce cycle time. This role collaborates closely with manufacturing, quality, product engineering, test development, process and NPI teams to resolve technical issues and continuously optimize production performance.

Responsibilities:

  • Support daily production test operations by monitoring test performance, troubleshooting equipment and hardware issues, and ensuring the test line remains fully operational.
  • Manage probers, probe cards, test hardware and test programs, including qualification activities, maintenance scheduling, and failure analysis.
  • Coordinate with vendors to resolve equipment issues, implement test improvements, and manage spare parts and service logistics.
  • Design and run DOE experiments to improve yield, reduce cycle time, and support continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Maintain and enhance MES workflows to ensure accurate, efficient, and reliable production execution.
  • Develop and manage recipes for defect detection using automated optical inspection (AOI) tools.

Qualifications & Requirements:

  • BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, Materials Science, or a related technical field.
  • 5+ years of experience in semiconductor, MEMS, or high-volume manufacturing test environments; wafer-level experience strongly preferred.
  • Hands-on experience supporting production test operations, including ATE systems, probers, and wafer-level test hardware.
  • Experience debugging probe cards, including both cantilever and vertical pin architectures.
  • Proven proficiency in developing and automating test programs using C#, LabVIEW, or Python.
  • Strong knowledge of Statistical Process Control (SPC), yield analysis, and wafer probe/test methodologies.
  • Familiarity with MEMS fabrication processes is a plus.
  • Experience with wafer sort is a plus.

Desired Characteristics & Attributes:

  • A positive attitude and motivated to learn new skills.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills required.
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to work well with others in a collaborative fast-paced team environment.
