MBE Growth Production Engineer
About The Position
Teledyne Imaging Sensors pioneers best in class infrared sensors to see into the past, analyze the present, and secure the future. As the world’s leading provider of infrared focal plane arrays for space, Teledyne’s customers include NASA, ESA, the US Department of Defense, instrument/system integrators, and commercial customers. Teledyne’s infrared sensors are Everywhere You Look (TM): aboard the James Webb Space Telescope and the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope; in ground-based observatory telescopes; on the International Space Station; integrated into satellite systems that allow the study of climate change; at the core of airborne tactical platform protection systems; and enabling analytical microscopes. Our mission-focused team values technical excellence, collaboration, and agility – Launch your career to the next level with us! Teledyne Imaging Sensors is the leader in producing HgCdTe focal plane arrays and we are looking to add an MBE Growth Production Engineer to our Infrared Materials Group for the second shift (~11:00am-7:00pm). The ideal candidate is a hands-on technical engineer who excels in MBE growth production and enjoys working as a team. The MBE Growth Production Engineer is responsible for the MBE growth and characterization of HgCdTe wafers for the production of high performance infrared focal plane arrays and detectors. This involves MBE tool ownership from tool use planning, tool maintenance and repair, growth structure design, recipe writing, wafer growth, post growth wafer characterization and correlation of MBE growth results with final device performance. As a member of the technical staff, the MBE Growth Production Engineer is encouraged to innovate new growth and characterization techniques for continual process improvements for yield enhancement and increased wafer throughput.
