Job Responsibilities
Process Development & Optimization
- You'll own lithography development for advanced packaging solutions.
- Developing manufacturable, repeatable, and high-yielding processes.
- Improving processes for cost reduction, cycle time reduction, and yield enhancement.
- Collaborating with cross-functional teams to lead innovations in lithography and their implementation efforts
- Drive the industry with advanced lithography solutions, for panel lithography
Equipment & Tooling Support
- Active part of defining lithography equipment specifications and validating tools.
- Work with cross-functional team to monitor and maintain tool performance.
Yield & Quality Improvement
- Implement and refine process monitoring techniques and defect inspection, to proactively investigate and resolve lithography defects.
- Collaborate with upstream and downstream process owners (e.g., plating, deposition, etching) 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.
- 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). Process Integration
- 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.
