Scientist / Senior Scientist (Flat Optics Process Integration) (APM) (NSTIC), IME

Job Description

Job responsibilities:

• Develop and innovate critical flat optics modules. Drive multi-functional teams to optimize existing process flows and develop new innovative integration solutions to meet potential product requirements and manufacturability.
• Develop or redefine critical criteria/aspects for optimal design performances and process capability.  Initiate DOE (Design of Experiments) evaluations to characterize process window for new design/product requirements.
• Pro-active in evaluating and implementing new integration schemes. Establish proof of concept for future tech roadmap.
• Take on an active attitude to summarize complex problems, explain actions taken to address them with clarity, and align with unit process, design and fabrication teams.
• Extract and analyse inline, GDS layout, parametric, reliability, and other critical metrics to construct predictive modelling on the photonics/flat optics device performance and specification.
• Coordinate activities with multi-functional teams to ensure timely wafers handling to meet deadline requirements.
• Require certain amount of working time in research fab environment for experiment and data collection.
• Act as subject matter expert for both internal and external stakeholders.   Potential opportunities to work on customer product delivery.

Job requirements:

• PhD in Electrical Engineering preferably specialized in semiconductor, physics or engineering. Prior flat optics technology development are highly preferred.
• Minimum of 3 years of experience in the semiconductor industry/research within the areas of silicon, flat optics process integration and yield.
• PhD candidates with strong hand-on knowledge of semiconductor unit process, flat optics device physics engineering will be considered too.
• Working knowledge of photonics simulation, layout design, and DOE design concept are highly desirable.
• Ability to develop a strong understanding on flat optics device and its related module on current Silicon technologies, related structural and electrical fail mechanisms.
• Passionate about flat optics technology and innovation.  Self-motivated, high-curiosity, good communication and interpersonal skill with proven ability to work in a fast-paced and dynamic environment.
