Principal Process Engineer
About The Position
Provide technical support for Chemical and Mechanical Planarization (CMP) process and Metrology. Support manufacturing with existing equipment and processes. Perform engineering analysis, troubleshooting/resolving issues daily in a MEMS fab environment, and daily tool health monitoring. Serve as the owner of metrology tools in the planarization area. Install, qualify, and sustain Chemical and Mechanical Planarization (CMP) and metrology tools to expand capability and improve inline detection. Own the SPC for the planarization process; monitor, report, and act based on results to improve yield. Develop continuous improvement plans for existing processes and support equipment and process road-maps to meet the company's strategic plan. Collaborate closely with design, integration, reliability, and R&D teams. Facilitate the transition of new designs from development to high-volume manufacturing. Ensure proper documentation of process instructions. Provide technical support in technical training for operation staff.
