Research Engineer/Senior Research Engineer (Dry Etch), IME

Develop and sustain Dry etch processes in R&D and Small volume manufacturing environment.

• Responsible for performing professional process engineering research, from the concept to the final process development for a wide variety of materials. (Metals, Silicon, Dielectrics, SiC and other speciality materials)
• May conceive and plan projects involving the definition and selection of new materials, concepts and approaches in the processing or developing of new processes.
• Compiles and evaluates test data to determine appropriate limits and variables for process specifications.
• Championing engineering experiments for process characterization to drive quality and yield improvement.
• Set up and collect the experimental data and generate reports for internal and customer distribution.
• Design and complete DOE (Design of Experiments) evaluations to characterize process window for new requirements.
• Work closely with senior staff and process integrators to understand technology roadmaps, process capability requirements and business issues/challenges.
• Act as a resource for colleagues with less experience; lead small projects with manageable risks.
• Act as subject matter expert for both internal and external stakeholders.

Requirements:

• Bachelor or Master in Materials Science, Metallurgy, Electrical, Electronics, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry or Physics; or relevant field science and engineering fields.
• Exposure with plasma or semiconductor process are an added advantages.
• Prior experience in dry etch/Wet etch processes is preferred.
• Knowledge of plasma fundamentals is an added advantage.
