Process Engineer, Metrology

Job Purpose

The Process Engineer for Metrology is responsible to help support the development of manufacturable, repeatable, and reliable Metrology for state-of-the-art highly specialized devices in the fields of Aerospace, Defense, Bioelectronics, and High-Speed Communications for their respective functional area and tool sets.

• Partner with Integration Engineers, Customers, Development Engineers, and Other Metrology Engineers to measure the outcome of experiments and adjust or optimize the required wafer characterization to support an operation-driven Metrology.
• Partner with Product Engineering and Integration to help ensure effective Metrology on new products introductions as well as consistent Metrology performance and quality on Production lots.
• Guide and assist Metrology Technicians through challenging process steps.
• Analyze metrology results and disposition lots based on data and pass/fail criteria.
• Report and summarize results from the metrology analysis and provide guidance to Integration Engineering Team and Process Development Engineering Team.
• Provide effective pass-downs to support uninterrupted operation in respective area.
• Sustain and improve characterization for wafer fabrication.
• Partner with equipment engineering, operation, and management to improve cycle time, tool availability, quality, repeatability and reproducibility for all Metrology measurements.
• Using Document Control, Process Work Instructions, and Manufacturing Execution Systems, preserve working knowledge of all codes and standards applicable to assigned Metrology equipment.
• Assure that the manufactured products conform to specifications and application requirements.
• Partner with Senior Development Engineering team and Integration teams to resolve deviations or technical issues by establishing a list of hypotheses, defining the experiment to validate or invalidate hypothesis, identify root-causes, implement corrective actions, document improved process, and train operations.
• Sustain existing wafer characterization in respective area, recipe creations, inspections, defects control, and relevant metrology for effective process control.
• Create and maintain operating specifications for production Metrology.
• Monitor Metrology health with Statistical Process Control (SPC) and respond to out-of-control event following out-of-control action plans.

80%+ of work is performed in the Fab, which a temperature-controlled cleanroom environment that requires the use of a full-body gown, over-boots, over-hood, safety glasses, and other PPE. The use of personal protective equipment to prevent exposure to hazardous materials can be expected. Frequent gowning and de-gowning is required. Frequent interruptions, static noise, and alarms (auditory and flashing lights) can be expected.

• Frequently in a stationary position, often sitting and/or standing for prolonged periods (3 hours)
• Frequently viewing a computer monitor for prolonged periods (3 hours)
• Frequently walking around the Fab for prolonged periods (3 hours)
• Occasionally required to push and/or pull 50+ lbs objects, such as tool components
• Occasionally required to lift 50+ lbs and occasionally carry that amount short distances (# ft)
• Occasionally required reach, bend, twist, squat, kneel, and stoop to access and work on tools in the Fab
• May often require repetitive motions involving the wrists, hands, and/or fingers
• May require different positions and motions in tight and confined spaces
• Occasionally required to handle items using small ranges of motion (e.g. fingers and hands) and large ranges of motion (e.g., full-arms and shoulders) for carrying cassettes and lot boxes
• Constantly required to wear PPE
