Semiconductor Yield Defect Metrology Engineer Jobs

Job Details:Job Description: 

At Intel's Logic Technology Development (LTD) we have continued to extend Moore's lawto beworld leaders in computing technology. To achieve the necessary scaling of our semiconductor manufacturing process, we have led the industry in developing enhancements such as strained silicon for carrier transport enhancement, high-k metal gates, and FINFETs.LTD has been at the center of every new development that has kept Moore's Law moving forward. Defect Metrology plays a key role in the development of every new siliconprocess development. Our analysis builds the plan that allows LTD to taketechnologyfrom the research phase to the high-volume manufacturing phase while maintaininghigh qualitystandards.IntheMIEorganization, we engineer world-class yields on D1 processes by driving defects down to Best-in-Class targets. As a Defect Metrology engineer, you willbe responsible foridentifyingall the defects that impact yield and performance inan advancedsilicon process technology. You will characterize the process usingcutting-edgemetrology tools. With this characterization, you willbe responsible forcreating the defectreductionroadmap. You will then work directly with modules and integration to drive that roadmap by developing and qualifying process fixes. This roleprovidesan opportunity to influence Intel's future process technologies that will keep Moore's Law moving forward.

Responsibilities/Duties include but not limited to:

• Provide navigation and leadership to meet Intel's yieldobjectivesutilizingstate of the artmetrology tools and QTMs.

• Organizing and presenting defect summaries to LTD engineering teams.

• Partnering with Intel Integration, Yield, and failure analysis labs to provide root cause for all defect issues.

• Instituterampto manufacturing volumes todemonstratethe technology meets requirements while simultaneously transferring the technology to counterparts in manufacturing via the Copy Exactly Methodology.

• Hold the team and collaborators accountable for quality through IMT and FTs.

• Work collaboratively as a part of the overall TD Defect metrology group.

• Role-model andestablishateamculture of trust, collaboration, safety, accountability, and excellence.

• Build strong relationships with other LTDprocessand design teams based on mutual trust and respect.

• An ideal candidate should be willing todemonstratethe below behavioral traits:

• Strong data analysis and problem debug skills.

• Excellent communication skills.

• Understand and adhere to key Intel values
