Development Engineering Senior Technician
About The Position
The Development Engineering Senior Technician supports semiconductor technology development in a fast-paced foundry environment. The role helps execute engineering experiments, troubleshoot material issues, and support technology development programs that contribute to customer and internal R&D success. The position works with Development Engineers and engineering teams to keep experiments and development activities on schedule, evaluate non-conforming material, and support technology validation, process learning, and customer development programs. The technician builds proficiency across more than 100 semiconductor toolsets and gains exposure to process areas including Photolithography, Etch, Thin Films, CMP, and Implant/RTA. The role also involves creating and improving work instructions, process flows, and metrology recipes; identifying continuous-improvement opportunities; and taking on greater responsibility and autonomy as technical knowledge develops. The schedule is A Shift: Sunday through Tuesday and every other Wednesday, 6:00 a.m.–6:15 p.m. The position requires U.S. citizenship because the role requires holding or being able to obtain a government security clearance.
