Job Description:
As a Material Analysis (MA) Technician, you will be part of a Technology Development (TD) and High-Volume Manufacturing (HVM) lab responsible for performing material analysis and failure analysis in support of Intel's silicon process development and high-volume production. You will work on developing imaging, composition analysis and sample preparation techniques, and best-known methods (BKMs) to improve lab analysis quality, efficiency and output.
You will directly interface with TD and HVM fab customers and quality/reliability engineers to develop solutions to problems by utilizing lab capabilities. The scope may include wafer and unit level, front-end modules and back-end/far back-end modules.
- Conducting hands-on analysis by effectively utilizing lab techniques, from sample prep micro-cleaver, ion mill etcher, mechanical polish to SEM/EDX, Dual beam FIB, TEM techniques to characterize Si fabricated structures at nanometer scales and integrated circuit device to improve process, performance and reliability; and to identify physical failure mode toward the root-cause identification.
- Conducting hands-on data collection with various lab equipment's, and assisting engineers to implement materials characterization techniques to determine fundamental thin film material structure/properties and to collaborate with process development engineers across functional areas and organizations to improve process performance and reliability.
- Supporting and sustaining lab equipment. Ensuring that lab analytical capabilities needed to support advanced transistor and interconnect technology and/or product development are in place. Cooperating with other lab areas beyond local MA/FA (Failure Analysis) labs to achieve goals.
- May necessitate the development of improved/new tools and BKM methods. Provide lab hub support to new process/product ramp in HVM factories and production startup.
