TL;DR · Manager, Hardware Qualification and Development Support Team Engineer

The Manager, Hardware (HW) Qualification and Development Support Team (DST) Engineer joins the team to provide technical expertise in at least two R&D disciplines, such as Optic, Electronic, Motion, or SEM. This role involves supporting R&D module owners with module integration, calibration, and qualification, while qualifying module performance to specific requirements both on and off tool. Key responsibilities include leading the qualification of complex non-system components, providing risk assessments, and defining execution plans for calibration procedures. The engineer will utilize MES platforms like SiView, Applied Materials APF, and Siemens Opcenter to monitor lot holds and extract operational data for yield analysis. This position solves complex problems in tool build and integration, requiring the ability to define full build books and subsystem ATP tests.

What you'll do

  • Support R&D module owners with module integration, calibration, and qualification for both on and off-tool environments.
  • Qualify module performance against specifications and lead the qualification of complex, non-system components.
  • Define and execute comprehensive qualification plans and calibration procedures.
  • Utilize MES platforms to monitor lot holds, review step histories, and extract data for yield analysis and troubleshooting.
  • Define and qualify full build books and full subsystem ATP tests for production documentation.
  • Provide technical expertise and 3rd level escalation support for modules within specialized areas of expertise.
  • Drive cross-functional alignment to schedule R&D activities, execute projects, and report results to stakeholders.
  • Interpret business challenges to recommend best practices for improving products, processes, and services.

What we're looking for

  • 4-7 years of experience.
  • Technical expertise in at least 2 R&D disciplines such as Optic, Electronic, Motion, or SEM.
  • Experience leading qualification of complex, non-system components and providing risk assessments.
  • Proficiency in utilizing MES platforms like SiView, Applied Materials APF, Siemens Opcenter, or equivalent.
  • Expertise in tool build, complex integration, and defining/qualifying full build books and subsystem ATP tests.
  • Ability to lead functional teams or projects with moderate resource requirements and complexity.
  • Ability to communicate difficult concepts and negotiate with others to adopt different points of view.
  • Bachelor's Degree.
