Advanced Processing Lithography Production Engineer

What you'll do

• Own and drive lithography process performance to ensure safety, quality, yield, and stability.
• Develop and maintain process control strategies, acceptance criteria, and monitoring methods.
• Analyze process performance metrics to support technical decision-making and continuous improvement.
• Lead investigations and resolve process-related issues, deviations, and escalations.
• Execute data-driven initiatives to reduce variation and increase first-pass yield.
• Identify and mitigate process-related safety risks in partnership with Environmental, Health and Safety teams.
• Create technical documentation including work instructions, qualification reports, and test plans.
• Support daily production operations and new product introductions through cross-functional collaboration.

What we're looking for

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Materials Science and Engineering, Physics, or a related technical field.
• 4+ years of experience in semiconductor, optics, or advanced manufacturing environments.
• Hands-on experience with contact photolithography, resist coating, and wet etching in contamination-controlled environments.
• Ability to perform data-driven problem solving and identify root causes using structured methods.
• Proficiency in working within cleanroom and manufacturing environments while interacting directly with hardware.
• Knowledge of statistical process control (SPC) and common manufacturing tools like DMAIC, A3, 8D, FMEA, or DOE.
• Ability to communicate effectively across engineering, operations, and management levels.
• Authorization to access controlled technology as defined by U.S. Export Administration Regulations.
