As an Algorithm Developer within a multidisciplinary R&D team, you will develop next-generation semiconductor inspection technology. You will research, design, and implement advanced image-processing and deep-learning algorithms for e-beam inspection platforms, focusing on defect detection, registration, scoring, and electrical failure-mode analysis. Your daily work involves taking innovative concepts from initial proof of concept through robust, production-grade implementation and end-to-end system integration. You will collaborate with software engineers, system designers, and product teams to optimize performance for high-speed applications. Key technical requirements include expertise in computer vision, deep learning, and image processing, alongside experience with electrical defect analysis like voltage contrast. The role addresses complex challenges in semiconductor metrology by developing tools for wafer fabrication, specifically focusing on automated inspection systems that identify and localize defects within advanced microchip manufacturing environments.
