Process Engineer – ALD

Overview

• A Process Engineer for ALD role will be leading Production activities on the ALD equipment in both FL001 and FL002 lines.
• As the ALD process produces one of the most critical layers in our device stack, the Gate dielectric, tight control over this is paramount.
• This will be maintained and continuously improved through Process Checks, SPC and formal Cp/CpK reviews.
• A deep understanding of the ALD process will be vital to success in the role.

Key tasks

• Provide Production Engineering cover to the FlexLogIC-001 (200mm) & future FlexLogIC (300mm) production lines.
• Improve turn-around between check completion and returning the tool to production use (if check unsatisfactory) by preparing appropriate OCAPs and training for Technicians.
• Assisting with training of Production Engineering Technicians to enable coverage outside of Office Hours.
• Work on SPC improvement objectives to improve tool performance and prepare OCAP documents to recover Process.
• Diagnose, troubleshoot and resolve yield impacting issues on ALD equipment (200 & 300mm lines).

Qualifications and training

• Degree or post graduate in Physics / Electronics / Semicon to BSc level or higher
• Strong MS Office skills.
• SQL / JMP / Minitab experience

Skills and experience

• Experience with MES (Manufacturing Execution Software)
• Experience with Microsoft Office Suite
• Previous working experience within a Semiconductor facility, preferably 24/7 operations
• Experience with statistical tools such as MATLab, Minitab or SAS-JMP
• Understanding of the importance of any Engineering improvements or work on the functionality of our devices
• Engineering level understanding of a variety of Atomic Layer wafer process equipment (Atomic Layer Deposition, Atomic Layer Etching)
• Experience with film material characterisation & failure analysis techniques (SEM, EDX, X-ray, etc.)
