Job Responsibilities

Process Development & Optimization

• You'll own the development and optimization of dry processes including film deposition and etching for advanced packaging solutions.
• Collaborating with cross-functional teams to lead innovations in deposition & etching and their implementation efforts

Equipment & Tooling Support

• Active part of defining deposition and etching equipment specifications and validating tools.
• Work with supplier teams to monitor and maintain tool performance.

Yield & Quality Improvement

• Implement and refine process monitoring techniques and defect inspection, to proactively investigate and resolve issues with dry processes.

Process Integration

• Collaborate with upstream and downstream process owners (e.g., lithography, plating, wet processes, metrology) to ensure seamless integration.
• Support the development of process flows for advanced packaging substrates.

Data Analysis & Documentation

• Perform statistical analysis (e.g., DOE, SPC) to identify and control critical process parameters.  Experience with data analysis software packages (such as MATLAB, Python, SQL, JMP)
• Document standard operating procedures (SOPs), work instructions, and control plans.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Work closely with design, product engineering, equipment vendors, and manufacturing teams to support process scale-up and new product introduction (NPI).
• Assist with customer qualifications and reliability testing as needed.

Perform any other ad-hoc duties as assigned by the Manager, as required to support the team and organizational goals.
