Process Integration Engineer - Photonics

Role Overview

We are seeking a Process Integration Engineer to support the development, optimization, and integration of semiconductor manufacturing processes for silicon photonics products. The successful candidate will work closely with cross-functional engineering teams to drive process improvements, ensure manufacturability, and support new product introduction (NPI) from development through production.

Key Responsibilities

Process Integration

• Develop, optimize, and integrate semiconductor fabrication processes for silicon photonics devices.
• Monitor process performance, identify process variations, and implement corrective actions to improve yield and device performance.
• Define process flows and establish process control methodologies across multiple fabrication modules.

Yield Improvement

• Analyze electrical, optical, and inline process data to identify yield loss mechanisms.
• Drive root cause analysis and implement continuous improvement initiatives to enhance manufacturing yield and reliability.

Failure Analysis

• Collaborate with process, device, and product engineers to perform defect analysis and troubleshoot process-related issues.
• Support wafer disposition and corrective action implementation.

New Product Introduction (NPI)

• Support technology transfer from R&D into pilot and high-volume manufacturing.
• Coordinate engineering builds and qualification activities for new products and process changes.

Data Analysis

• Develop data analysis methodologies using statistical tools to monitor process capability and identify trends.
• Prepare technical reports and present engineering findings to cross-functional teams.

Cross-functional Collaboration

• Work closely with Process, Device, Design, Manufacturing, Quality, and Equipment Engineering teams to achieve project milestones.

Ideal Requirements
