Process Engineer Contract Employee

Job Description
Intel leads the semiconductor industry by creating innovative technologies. From strained silicon, to high-k metal gate technology, to the world’s first 3-D Tri-Gate transistor in production on the 22nm process, our Process Engineers have a passion for leading the industry and changing the world.

As an Intel Process Engineer, you’ll join a team helping to develop the most efficient means for semiconductor manufacturing, enabling microprocessors to do more with less – less energy, fewer resources and smaller real estate. Process engineers, along with yield and equipment engineers, take responsibility for monitoring and controlling wafer fabrication and product performance; managing tool productivity, maintenance and yields; conducting data analysis to improve processes; and managing quality measurement for 32nm technology and below. Together with these engineers, you’ll take a demanding set of functions and turn them into the computing technology that transforms how the world works, plays, learns and communicates. If you are looking for a position where you can see the end results of your work making a real impact on the tech world and on real experiences, this is the team for you.

Your responsibilities may include:

-Designing and planning the layout for such processes as laminating, etching, plating, roughening, mechanical drilling, laser drilling, photolithography, and other material processing operations
-Planning the sequence of operations and specifying procedures for preparing basic material
-Exercising judgment in compromising between conflicting requirements, economic evaluation of methods, and operator effectiveness and comfort
-Conducting tests and measurements throughout stages of production to determine control over such variables as temperature, density, specific gravity, pressure, and viscosity
-Establishing and submitting processing requirements to be met in designing and acquiring processing equipment
-Responding to customer/client requests or events as they occur
-Developing solutions to problems utilizing formal education and judgment

An ideal candidate would exhibit behavioral traits that indicate:

-Analytical and problem solving skills
-Skills to work independently and manage stakeholders
-Skills to deal with ambiguity in defining activities and direction
-Passion for the job
-High motivation with a strong work ethic
-Planning skills
-Written and verbal communication skills
-Upon applying for this opportunity, you will also be considered for other similar opportunities available.

Qualifications
