Ocotillo Technology Fabrication Vacuum Systems Group (VSG) Experienced Module Engineer

Intel•Chandler, AZ

25d•$103,730 - $198,820•Onsite

About The Position

The Module Engineer role is within Intel’s Ocotillo Technology Fabrication (OTF) Vacuum Systems Group (VSG). Successful candidates will be aligned to areas that best match factory needs. Based at Intel’s high-volume manufacturing facility in Chandler, Arizona, the role focuses on instrumentation and equipment and on developing robust, manufacturable process modules. The engineer defines roadmaps, process flows, procedures, and equipment configurations for new technology processes; selects and develops materials and equipment; and conducts experiments to characterize processes throughout development. The role drives improvements in quality, yield, reliability, process stability, productivity, and safety, establishes process-control systems, and sustains modules through volume ramp. It also addresses difficult problems, trains engineers for transfer to other factories, supports technology transfers and new-factory start-ups, and participates in installation and qualification of production lines. The position may require day- or night-shift work as an on-shift engineer (OSE) to support toolset needs. The successful candidate contributes to a high-performing team culture, demonstrates accountability and urgency, and works across organizational boundaries, including with process engineering, integration, and yield teams. The role requires teamwork, leadership, problem-solving, prioritization, communication, adaptability to ambiguity, and commitment to tasks, as well as using data to influence factory direction and driving high-performance maintenance goals. This is an on-site role. Intel offers competitive compensation, stock bonuses, and benefits that include health, retirement, and vacation programs. The listed annual US salary range is $103,730–$198,820; individual pay depends on location and other job-related factors.
