Senior MEMS Process Integration Engineer

At Torramics, we're doing something no one has done before: fusing leading nanofluidic technology with a breakthrough thermoelectric / thermal-diffusion nano Compressor to reinvent injectable drug delivery. The result is a platform so small, so precise, and so reliable that it will change daily life for people living with insulin-dependent diabetes - starting with insulin and GLP-1s.

We're looking for a Senior MEMS Process Integration Engineer to be a hands-on technical leader in the development and integration of our nano Compressor process. You'll work directly in the fab, developing processes, running experiments, analyzing results, and helping coordinate the work required to move a world-first MEMS microfluidic device from R&D toward commercialization. Over time, this role is expected to become a key technical transfer lead as the process moves into production.

• Hands-on process development and integration. Work directly with process equipment to develop, optimize, and maintain the process steps that drive product performance, yield, and reliability.
• Yield and reliability. Turn on-wafer metrology into insight using DOE, SPC, capability analysis, and appropriate data-analysis tools - spotting trends, root-causing issues, and locking in process stability.
• The hardest problems in the fab. Design and run experiments, split lots, and process-development work to correct MEMS device and fab-process issues, reduce variation and defects, and shorten cycle time.
• Technology transfer and team coordination. Work shoulder to shoulder with process, design, test, and technician team members, while building the technical depth to support eventual transfer to Torramics' production environment and external partners.
• The knowledge base. Create process documentation, specifications, and SOPs the team can build on, and communicate findings clearly to engineers, partners, and leadership.

• Become a trusted, hands-on process integration partner across the nano Compressor development flow.
• Build the DOE and SPC foundation the team relies on to make process decisions.
• Reduce defectivity, improve process capability, and help prepare the technology for transfer into a production environment.

• 5+ years of hands-on semiconductor or MEMS process development / integration experience in a fab, R&D, or high-volume manufacturing environment.
• Demonstrated hands-on experience operating process equipment and developing one or more core module areas such as thin films, lithography, etch, wet clean, MEMS release, or inline / failure-analysis metrology. This is not a hands-off or fabless-only role.
• Strong statistical process and data-analysis capability, including DOE, SPC, capability analysis, and FMEA. JMP is useful, but equivalent tools such as Minitab, Excel, or other analysis platforms are welcome.
• A degree in Materials Science, MEMS, Materials Engineering, Chemistry, Physics, Applied Physics, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related field.
• Sharp problem-identification and analytical instincts, plus the communication skills to make complex technical work clear to peers, partners, and leadership.

• Experience with MEMS devices - resonators, sensors, microphones, gyroscopes - especially those incorporating microfluidics.
• Experience transferring a process or technology from R&D into a production environment.
• Familiarity with industry-standard layout files (GDS, OASIS).

• A world-first mission with real stakes. You'll help commercialize the smallest insulin patch ever - technology designed to improve daily life for people living with insulin-dependent diabetes.
• Ownership, not layers. Join a small, senior team where you report directly to the VP of Silicon Development and your work visibly moves the product forward.
• Ground-floor impact. Privately held and headquartered in Silicon Valley, we've been perfecting our platform since 2021 - and we're scaling the team supporting commercialization.
• Benefits and upside. A competitive package with medical, dental, and vision benefits, plus equity eligibility with a four-year vesting structure.

• Location: Stanford, California. This is an on-site role supporting development work in the Stanford University nanofabrication environment.
• Compensation: $160,000-$180,000 annual base salary, depending on experience and overall fit, plus equity and a full benefits package.
• Equal opportunity: We value diversity and are committed to building an inclusive environment for all employees. If you're excited about this role but don't meet every single requirement, we still encourage you to apply - you may be exactly who we're looking for.

The pay range for this role is:
