Position Summary
Seeking an individual contributor with Process Integration experience or knowledgeable of multiple unit processes such as Lithography, Etch, Thin Film deposition for example. The scope of the job is 28nm node and above.

The Process Integration Engineering (PIE) team is focused on incoming technology transfer, productization, new product introductions, yield improvement, process margin improvement, cycle time reductions and other KPI improvements.

Role And Responsibilities
Here’s What You’ll Be Responsible For:

  • Knowledgeable in unit part processes used to fabricate planar MOSFETs and interconnects.

  • Understands the critical interactions between processes and reasons for applications of materials / chemistries and patterning techniques.

  • Enhances knowledge of fabrication sensitivities impacting device performance, yield, packaging and reliability.

  • Duties will include problem solving related to reliability/packaging claims, depressed yield, in line trend shifts, new product introductions(NPI), integration margins and resolving process/integration weaknesses.

  • Focus on maintaining and improving processes for mass production.

  • Proven ability to assess KPI gaps and generate and execute improvement plans without significant oversight. Work with process groups when necessary to attain objectives.

  • Demonstrate total product ownership

  • Design, execute, and analyze experiments.

  • Experience with 8D reporting.

  • Work days and hours: Typically Mon-Fri 8-5 but off hour activities and coverage may be required.

Practice Questions

💡Technical Questions (3)
  • 1.Can you explain the critical interactions between lithography, etch, and thin film deposition when fabricating planar MOSFETs at the 28nm node, and how variations in one can impact the others?
  • 2.Walk me through your approach to diagnosing and resolving an in-line trend shift that is causing depressed yield on a mature product.
  • 3.Describe your experience with 8D reporting. How do you ensure that root causes are accurately identified and that corrective actions prevent recurrence, particularly for reliability claims?
🎯Behavioral Questions (3)
  • 1.Tell me about a time you had to drive a yield improvement or cycle time reduction initiative without significant oversight. How did you demonstrate total product ownership?
  • 2.Give me an example of a time when you had to resolve a process or integration weakness that required you to work with multiple unit process groups who had conflicting priorities.
  • 3.Describe a situation where you were responsible for a new product introduction (NPI) or technology transfer. What was your strategy to ensure a smooth transition to mass production?
🧩Situational Questions (2)
  • 1.You receive an urgent reliability claim on a packaged part from the field, but the in-line data shows no abnormalities. The production line is still running. How do you handle this?
  • 2.You are leading an integration margin improvement project and notice that a specific etch process has very little margin. The etch group insists the process is optimized and cannot be changed, but it is causing yield loss at your next inspection step. How do you resolve this?
