TL;DR · Advanced Processing Coating Process Engineer

As an Advanced Processing Coating Process Engineer at a leading semiconductor manufacturing company, you will serve as a subject-matter expert in thin-film deposition processes and optical coating performance, working closely with production teams and cross-functional stakeholders to ensure robust and high-performance coatings. Your daily responsibilities include developing and optimizing optical coating processes using PVD techniques such as electron beam evaporation and sputtering, troubleshooting issues related to optical performance and defects, and driving continuous improvement initiatives. You will also generate technical documentation, collaborate on equipment projects, and support new product introductions. The ideal candidate holds a Master’s degree with 1+ years or Bachelor’s degree with 3+ years of experience in Materials Science, Physics, Optical Engineering, or related fields, along with hands-on experience in optical thin-film coating and proficiency in Python, MATLAB, SPC tools, and Microsoft Office.

What you'll do

  • Develop and optimize optical coating processes using PVD techniques like electron beam evaporation and sputtering.
  • Troubleshoot coating issues to ensure stable performance and address defects, adhesion failures, and cosmetic non-conformances.
  • Analyze process data to identify trends, reduce variation, and improve yield and throughput in manufacturing.
  • Lead equipment projects from concept through qualification, including vendor engagement and internal installation support.
  • Generate technical documentation such as engineering test plans, qualification reports, and work instructions for processes.

What we're looking for

  • Master’s degree with 1+ years of relevant experience or Bachelor’s degree with 3+ years in a related field.
  • Experience in optical thin-film coating and PVD systems (e-beam, sputtering, IAD).
  • Strong understanding of thin-film optics, optical constants, and material properties.
  • Hands-on experience with coating qualification, process transfer, and production support.
  • Familiarity with optical metrology techniques such as spectrophotometry and ellipsometry.
  • Proficiency in structured problem-solving methodologies like FMEA, 8D, DMAIC.
  • Strong communication skills for cross-functional collaboration and clear documentation.
