Staff Semiconductor Process Engineer

Job Description

You will be a Focal Plane Array Process Engineer with our Infrared Sensors Business on site in Goleta, CA. Our team is responsible for developing and manufacturing advanced Focal Plane Arrays (FPAs), and we are looking for a talented engineer to join our team.

What You Will Be Doing

As a Staff FPA Process Engineer, you will be responsible for the technical and production leadership in the fabrication and execution of advanced Focal Plane Array (FPA) including wicking, plasma system, substrate thinning, dicing, Anti-Reflection (AR) coating, and flip-chip bonding for hybridization, a key step in the manufacturing process imaging devices. You will play a critical role in developing and optimizing the processes, procedures, tooling, and equipment to maximize yield, efficiency, and throughput and methodologies used to precisely align and bond detector arrays and readout integrated circuits (ROICs), creating high-performance FPAs. You'll work in a fast-paced, high-mix production environment and contribute to the advancement of FPA technology.

Assignments include the definition of processing and handling equipment requirements and specifications, review of processing techniques and methods applied in the manufacture, fabrication, and evaluation of FPA devices.

Your responsibilities will include, but are not limited to :

• Work with development and process integration engineers to adapt new processes and techniques into the manufacturing line as required. This may include defining requirements for new capabilities and organizing, leading, and executing FPA processing equipment capital procurement projects.
• Responsible for projects related to process definition, fabrication, modification and evaluation of FPA devices and components.
• Analyze test data, identify trends and anomalies, and provide feedback to drive process control and improvement initiatives. Contribute to the troubleshooting and failure analysis of FPAs, identifying root causes and implementing corrective actions.
• Develop and maintain documentation, including workflows, work instructions, and process control checklists, ensuring adherence to quality standards and industry protocols.

Why Join Us

We're looking for a collaborative and innovative Focal Plane Array Process Engineer to join our team. As a key member of our Infrared Sensors Business, you will have the opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology, contribute to the advancement of FPA technology, and collaborate with a team of experts. If you're a motivated and experienced engineer with a passion for process engineering and a strong background in semiconductor manufacturing, we encourage you to apply.

We are committed to supporting your work-life balance and overall well-being.
