Entry Level Hardware and Systems Engineer

Overview

As an Entry-Level Materials / Chemical Engineer, you will support the development, characterization, and qualification of packaging materials and processes used in advanced semiconductor packaging. This role is hands-on, lab-focused, and closely integrated with design, reliability, and manufacturing teams.

• Supporting materials and process development for semiconductor packaging technologies (e.g., underfill, die attach, encapsulation, substrates).
• Executing hands-on lab experiments, process trials, and development builds.
• Leading materials characterization and analysis to evaluate thermal, mechanical, and chemical performance.
• Assisting with failure analysis and root cause investigations related to packaging materials and processes.
• Collecting, analyzing, and documenting experimental data; preparing technical summaries and reports.
• Collaborating with cross-functional teams including packaging design, mechanical engineering, reliability, and manufacturing.
• Supporting technology qualification, readiness, and transfer to manufacturing.

• Preferred Education:
  
  Master s Degree
• BS Materials Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry or a related field
• Experience with design of experiments (DOE) and/or project management
• Experience or strong interest in process development, materials development, semiconductor packaging and hardware systems
• Hands-on experience through academic labs, internships, co-ops, or senior design projects
• Fundamental understanding of materials behavior (polymers, metals, composites)
• Strong analytical and communication skills, with a focus on collaboration and data-driven problem solving
