Semiconductor Wafer Fab Process Engineer

Semiconductor Wafer Fab Process Engineer

2 Weeks ago • 1-5 Years • Manufacturing

About the job

Summary

This Semiconductor Wafer Fab Process Engineer role involves monitoring and supporting daily wafer fabrication processes (lithography, thin film, etch, clean, thermal, metrology/characterization, and backside processes). You will ensure process reliability, provide technical support, optimize processes for yield/defectivity/cycle time reduction, and enhance process control plans using SPC. Problem resolution will involve data analytics, failure analysis (FA), DOE, and mistake-proofing. The role contributes to developing custom silicon solutions for Google's direct-to-consumer products, shaping next-generation hardware experiences. Experience in root cause analysis and data analysis is essential.
