About The Position

An exciting opportunity exists at Raytheon to join our process support team as a 3rd Shift Etch Process Support Engineer. This role involves working with gallium arsenide, gallium nitride, and III-V focal plane array materials within the RF Microelectronics/Module Design & Foundry Services (RFMicro) Department. This role requires a basic understanding of microelectronics processing techniques such as wet etching, dry etching, and plating. As a member of the RFMicro Department, the individual will be responsible for all etch related processes of the semiconductor products fabricated in the Andover foundry. Daily duties include engineering support and training for manufacturing personnel, reviewing lots and wafers requiring special disposition, failure analysis of tools and processes, supporting work center leads in tool and process qualification efforts, looking for ways to reduce rework and scrap, and looking for ways to increase efficiency in the process line. A significant portion of the role involves communicating with the manufacturing personnel, equipment teams, cell leads, and engineering leads to ensure the work center has the necessary resources to function efficiently. Presence on the manufacturing floor is required for quick resolution of issues and quick reaction time to prevent interruption to customer commitments. The ideal candidate will be an excellent communicator and have a drive to learn and improve the areas in which they work. Ability to multitask with attention to detail, maintain organized and documented processes, and the ability to work well in small cross-functional teams is essential. This role will be 100% on-site and based in Andover, MA.
