Job Description
The Process Engineering group at Skyworks in Woburn, Massachusetts is responsible for developing and supporting all wafer fabrication processes used to produce Skyworks’ diverse portfolio of products. The primary device technologies include HBT, BiFET, pHEMT, BiHEMT and silicon diodes at various performance nodes. The group works closely with the Advanced Technology Development team to develop technologies and with the Manufacturing Operations team to deliver world-class quality products to market.
Responsibilities
• Support daily production to ensure on-time-delivery of top quality product. This includes disposition of held lots and prescribing appropriate rework processing as necessary. May require leading a team to rapidly contain yield/quality excursions and drive corrective actions.
• Support section-specific continuous improvement projects efforts affecting key metrics.
• Support Advanced Technology Development on shift to assist in driving them forward 24x7.
• Engage in professional development opportunities to stay in tune with industry trends, extend the state of the art and enhance the group’s technical and professional depth and breadth.
• Build teamwork and cohesiveness within the group, and champion collaboration between engineering groups to improve the wellbeing and performance of the overall organization.
• Work with Operations synergistically, following a “work cell” model, to optimize the overall performance of the Final Process area & enhance the skills/knowledge of Operations personnel.
Qualifications
• At a minimum, a BS in engineering, physics, chemistry, material science or related discipline.
• Course work in micro-electronics process engineering with 3-5 years of related experience as a regular employee, preferably in final (i.e. backside) processes including wafer mount/dismount, thinning/grinding and dicing/singulation. An ideal candidate will also have knowledge and/or experience in other process areas such as thin films, lithography, dry etch and/or wet processes. A basic understanding of Ohm’s Law, diodes, resistors, capacitors and transistors, and their characteristics are pluses.
• Basic knowledge of common figures of merit (and the factors that control them) for final wafer processing such as flatness, thickness, roughness, flexural strength, critical dimensions, back-to-front alignment and metal sheet resistance. Also, experience applying analytical tools (e.g. SEM/FIB/EDX) and interpreting the results.
• Metrics driven, data directed, detail oriented and very strong in core engineering principles.
• Team player with experience driving for improved process control and rapidly containing yield/quality excursions, identifying root causes and implementing effective corrective actions.
• An insatiable desire to understand cause and effect, and the mechanisms that connect them.
• Ability to apply basic structured problem solving methods (e.g. Shainin, Six Sigma or Model-based) to identify and control or eliminate root causes of variation.
• Basic knowledge of Statistical Process Control and the principles of variation.
• Basic data analysis skills using tools such as JMP, Excel, Exensio/Spotfire or dataPower.
