Interfacing with vendors of equipment and process materials if needed.

Lead engineering development schedules, planning and coordination of ongoing efforts. 

Compiling and analyzing data, writing reports, and presenting results to team members and management.

Report to the project lead on regular basis on progress and issues, support communication material such as charts and slides. 

Required Skills: 

Experience with semiconductor packaging technologies (bumping, flip chip bonding, underfill)

Experience and familiarity with semiconductor & MEMS processes such as lithography/exposure tools, thin film deposition (PVD, CVD, ALD), wet etch, dry etch, and plasma tools. Familiarity with electroplating processes.

In-depth knowledge of MEMS and semiconductor device microfabrication and material properties.

Strong foundation of materials science principles.

Experience with CAD tools for device mask layout.

Experience with metrology tools including profilometry, surface and bulk analytical methods relevant to characterization of thin films (e.g. XPS, XRD, SEM, EDX).

Strong statistical analysis and data mining capabilities with tools like JMP and Excel.

Experience with six sigma methodologies (FMEA, SPC, DOE).  

Strong and independent problem-solving skills.  Experience with diagnosing issues using failure analysis techniques and recommending solutions.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills and ability to work as a team player in a fast-paced environment. Good presentation skills. 

Excellent time management skills. Ability to deal with multiple issues and changing priorities.

Self-motivated, attention to detail, ability to prepare technical reports by collecting, analyzing, and summarizing information, as well as write technical specifications.

Experience in leading teams and program management is a plus. 

Experience with modeling and design of MEMS devices (Finite Element Analysis using ANSYS/COMSOL, MATLAB, and SOLIDWORKS) is a plus. 

Experience in using electronic test equipment including signal generators and data acquisition systems in conjunction with MEMS devices is a plus. 

Required Education:

M.S. or Ph.D. in Material Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Chemistry or related field.    

Minimum 5-7 years of hands-on experience with semiconductor packaging (joining and reflow processes) and microfabrication (lithography, etching, plating, thin film deposition, characterization). 

Past leadership and program management experience.
