Infinera, Richmond, California, United States, 94807
Manufacturing Engineer
Pic Wafer Fabrication
CA Pay Range (Annual): $91,000.00 - $169,000.00 At Infinera, your base pay is one part of your total compensation package. Your actual base pay will depend on your skills, qualifications, experience, and location. This role may be eligible for equity grants, discretionary bonuses, or commission payments. The amount of these incentives is based on the terms of the Company's incentive plans, the Company's financial performance, and/or individual employee job performance. Infinera also offers paid leave, medical, dental, and vision coverage, 401(k), life, and disability insurance to eligible employees. Support a balance of sustaining, optimization, and qualification of wafer fabrication processes, including etch, and deposition and photolithography. These processes are applied to both existing and new technology generations of Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs). Participate in the development of wafer process recipes, operational procedures, and provide other support needed to qualify new tools needed for the release of an additional PIC wafer manufacturing site. Collect, interpret, and respond to wafer fab statistical process control (SPC) data in the etch, and deposition, and photolithography modules. Improve existing processes of record in the PIC wafer fab in terms of yield, cycle time, and manufacturability. Support the wafer fab engineering and operations teams to develop, control and optimize wafer fabrication processes. Optimize plasma deposition, plasma etch, wet etch and clean, and related processes needed for PIC wafer fabrication. Work in teams to scale PIC wafer fabrication processes to larger wafer sizes, while meeting key objectives for PIC yield, uniformity, and end-of-line parametric performance. Troubleshoot wafer fabrication process problems to enable a smooth flow of production and development wafers in the fab. Support engineering process and tool owners in resolving fab process or equipment problems. Execute fabrication work and data collection to support process development for etch, and deposition, and photolithography roadmap activities needed for future PIC technology. Utilize metrology equipment and test structures to maintain process control across wafer fab process modules, improve production yield and enable and guide new process development. JMP, DOE, SPC and their application to semiconductor manufacturing Working knowledge of semiconductor fabrication processes, and expertise in etch, deposition, photolithography and related processes. Strong initiative, leadership and communication skills. Experience with semiconductor process development, sustaining, new process introduction, and ramp to volume. Experience supporting a 24x7 fab operations team, writing and training of fab procedures, root cause analysis and problem resolution. B.S degree or equivalent experience. Technical depth in aspects of, etch, deposition, photolithography or similar tools and processes used for semiconductor manufacturing. 5 years' experience in broad aspects of semiconductor wafer fabrication. Knowledge of wafer fab metrology tools, for example ellipsometry, CD-SEM, step height, and overlay metrology. Clear communication of problems, challenges, and initiative in deploying solutions. A working knowledge and fab experience from pathfinding through mature production. A compound semiconductor background is a plus.
