What is a MEMS Process Engineer job?

A MEMS Process Engineer develops and optimizes microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) fabrication processes, typically in cleanroom environments. They work with deposition, etching, photolithography, and other semiconductor techniques to create tiny mechanical structures on silicon or other substrates. Their role involves process development, troubleshooting, and ensuring high-yield manufacturing. They collaborate with design, testing, and production teams to refine MEMS device performance.

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

To thrive as a MEMS Process Engineer, you need a strong background in microfabrication, physics, materials science, and typically a degree in electrical engineering or a related field. Familiarity with cleanroom protocols, lithography tools, etching systems, and process characterization equipment is essential. Excellent problem-solving, communication, and project management skills help you collaborate effectively and drive process improvements. These capabilities ensure precise device fabrication, efficient workflow, and successful integration of MEMS components in complex systems.

What are some typical challenges faced by MEMS Process Engineers in their day-to-day work?

MEMS Process Engineers often encounter challenges such as maintaining process stability and yield in a highly controlled cleanroom environment, troubleshooting fabrication defects, and adapting to rapid technological changes. They must ensure rigorous quality control while consistently meeting tight specifications for device performance and reliability. Collaboration with design, test, and packaging teams is frequent, requiring clear communication and flexibility. Overcoming these challenges is a critical part of delivering innovative and high-quality MEMS products in a competitive market.

Job description

Position Summary

This position is responsible for supporting various wafer bonding processes (microbond WC) for the high-volume fabrication of MEMS (silicon wafer). The candidate will use their understanding of fabrication processes and product development methodologies to achieve the yield goals of assigned toolset/process step(s). The wafer fab process engineer will collaborate with product R&D teams to make decisions on process quality based on data and statistical analysis.

Duties and Responsibilities

  • Develop fundamental understanding of assigned fabrication processes and product development methodologies against target yields
  • Determine wafer surface preparation and pre-bond cleaning requirements (plasma, wet cleans, dehydration bakes) to achieve high bond strength and low defectivity
  • Confirm bond alignment, bond tool operation, and post-bond thermal processing (bakes/cures) to ensure mechanical integrity and yield
  • Collaborate with:

· Other process and tooling engineers to execute process characterization, optimization, and margin studies including SPC, DOE, yield analysis, and defect reduction

·Equipment engineering, integration, and quality teams to drive process stability and continuous improvement

  • Contribute to FA by troubleshooting bond-related excursions such as delamination, voiding, particle-driven defects, and thickness non-uniformity
  • Support NPI, process transfer, and documentation (work instructions, process flows, FMEA, and control plans)
  • Occasionally work 40+ hours in a week to meet certain team milestones
  • Perform other duties as needed

Education and Credential Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related field
  • Due to project scope - US Citizenship is a requirement to be eligible for this role. Eligible to work in the US without RLA sponsorship for employment visa status

Experience Requirements

  • 3-5 years of experience in a wafer bonding process engineer role
  • Wafer bonding processes supporting volume manufacturing and R&D environments
  • Wafer-to-wafer and wafer-to-carrier bonding (e.g., direct bond, adhesive bond, oxide bond, plasma/anodic bond) used in MEMS and advanced device integration
  • Familiar with IR inspection, metrology, and cross-section analysis to evaluate bond voids, alignment accuracy, and interface quality
  • Use of Quality Systems, Statistical Process Control, Design of Experiments, and basic statistical data analysis on tooling design, process development, and improvements
  • Preferred experience:

· Worked on MEMS products

· Collaboration with Mechanical Tooling and Process Engineers on designing custom jigs/fixtures for wafer handling

Skills Requirements

  • Ability to read, write, and speak English proficiently
  • High proficiency using productivity software such as M365 (Word, Outlook, Excel, PowerPoint, Visio, Teams and SharePoint)
  • Ability to use agile/scrum project/program management principles and methodologies to consistently meet task deadlines, triage changing priorities, and track issues to resolution
  • Ability to collaborate across diverse teams with a customer service mindset

Work Environment

  • The position typically operates in a standard office environment and/or from employee’s home
  • Be able to lift and/or move up to 25 pounds
