Process Engineering Manager

Job Title

Process Engineering Manager

Halo Industries has developed breakthrough technology to revolutionize a decades-old semiconductor material slicing process. Our laser-based solution minimizes waste, enhances material cost efficiency, and drives innovations across high-growth markets, including automotive, telecommunications, and power electronics. Founded in 2014 at Stanford University, Halo received significant funding in 2024, paving the way for rapid expansion, strategic customer engagement, and the launch of volume manufacturing.

As the Process Engineering Manager at Halo Industries, you will stand at the center of a manufacturing revolution. We aren't just making wafers; we are fundamentally redefining silicon carbide wafering to power the future of electric vehicles, renewable energy, data centers, and more.

Reporting to the Director of Manufacturing, you will lead our process engineering team through its most critical evolution: transitioning from a high-potential pilot line to a world-class, high-volume manufacturing (HVM) facility. This is a "builder" role designed for a leader who thrives on the intersection of novel laser processing and rigorous operational discipline. You will be responsible for taking our proprietary laser-based slicing technology and stabilizing it for 24/7 volume production with industry leading yield, throughput, and cost-efficiency.

• Scale the Future :
  You will bridge the gap between R&D innovation and manufacturing excellence, turning complex laser-material interactions into a repeatable, automated production engine.
• Drive the Bottom Line :
  Success is measured by metrics that matter—dramatically reducing rework, maximizing yield, and lowering the total cost of ownership for SiC substrates.
• Lead a Culture of Excellence :
  You will mentor a multidisciplinary team of engineers, instilling a data-driven culture rooted in Statistical Process Control (SPC) and Lean principles.

If you are a semiconductor veteran who is tired of incremental improvements and wants to lead a generational shift in manufacturing within a fast paced startup, this is your opportunity to leave a legacy.
