** Company Overview
** KLA is a global leader in diversified electronics for the semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem. Virtually every electronic device in the world is produced using our technologies. No laptop, smartphone, wearable device, voice-controlled gadget, flexible screen, VR device or smart car would have made it into your hands without us. KLA invents systems and solutions for the manufacturing of wafers and reticles, integrated circuits, packaging, printed circuit boards and flat panel displays.

The innovative ideas and devices that are advancing humanity all begin with inspiration, research and development. KLA focuses more than average on innovation and we invest 15% of sales back into R&D. Our expert teams of physicists, engineers, data scientists and problem-solvers work together with the world’s leading technology providers to accelerate the delivery of tomorrow’s electronic devices. Life here is exciting and our teams thrive on tackling really hard problems.

There is never a dull moment with us.
** Group/Division
** With over 40 years of semiconductor process control experience, chip makers around the globe rely on KLA to ensure that their fabs ramp next-generation devices to volume production quickly and cost-effectively. Enabling the movement towards advanced chip design, KLA's Global Products Group (GPG), which is responsible for creating all of KLA’s metrology and inspection products, is looking for the best and the brightest research scientist, software engineers, application development engineers, and senior product technology process engineers.

The Surfscan group includes a team of engineers, technology development, apps engineers and product marketing focused on technology that enables wafer, IC and equipment manufacturers to develop, qualify and monitor their process tools. Defects and process non-uniformities detected on Surfscan equipment allow for early identification of yield excursions. The flagship Surfscan products include the SPx platforms for wafer surface quality and wafer defect inspection tools and systems for inspection of polished wafers, epi wafers and engineered substrates during the wafer fabrication process.
** Job Description/Preferred Qualifications
***
* Qualifications:

** Candidate must have the following: experience in the laser photonics, optical engineering, or optical metrology fields.  Candidate should also have all requisite skills to operate high-fluence/DUV laser systems and inspection/metrology equipment while handling multiple vendor interactions and internal/external design reviews.  This would include but is not limited to proficiency in commercial Diffractive and Metalens fabrication techniques and coherent wave propagation optics design theory to specify, review, and validate using simulations and measurement tools, the expected and actual behavior of DUV DOE/MOE based optical systems.  

Understanding of other photonics component theory of operation such as laser beam profilers and wavefront sensors, PMTs and CCDs is also required.  Candidate must demonstrate track record of successful completion of internal project milestones and deliverables on time and with limited supervision and ability to track project milestones and deliverables is a must.  Knowledge of optical fabrication, metrology, assembly and alignment techniques and protocols is highly desirable.  

Ability to travel both in US and abroad is required but will not compose the major proportion of this job’s function or priority.
** Minimum Qualifications
