Device Engineer – Platform & Operations Efficiency Team

What you will do

  • Work in the Platform Efficiency Department, as a Device Engineer.
  • Support process integration efforts on the full range of department projects, by helping define, collect, and analyze electrical test data for the project. 
  • Interpret the results of the electrical test data, and advise on best selection of direction to proceed. Interface with advanced research device team to collaborate and support these programs. 
  • Projects will be individual items from within the list below, as needed. 
  • Flow platformization: This activity touches a diverse range of programs, from very advanced CMOS, Si Photonics, 3D integration, and legacy Tech Transfer needs. 
  • Module Synergy activity: working on modules which are used across several of the programs at IMEC. Insure electrical test data is stable and on target. Advise on possible solutions to improve as needed.
  • Legacy technology improvement and tech transfer: Support 28nm and 14nm technology flows at IMEC, to strengthen the performance and stability. Support the utilization of these legacy flows to strengthen the connection between imec and the larger semiconductor industry. Be able to explain and discuss process technology with external customers, respond to questions with concise direct answers. Work to strengthen information needed for technology transfers. 
  • Work with Integration Engineers and Program management to design and execute performance improvements in the process flows of interest. 
  • Communicate status and issues to your peers, customers, as well as the management team at imec.
  • Leverage industry experience to window and margin test modules, working to establish optimal settings which work across major program families which are inherently dissimilar, and have their own unique needs. 
  • Implement industry based BKM concepts to help drive fab operational stability.
