Job
Description:
Ostendo Technologies is seeking an experienced
metrology engineer to contribute to the refinement of its Quantum Photonic
Imager (QPI®) microfabrication process.
Ostendo has demonstrated a fabrication process for leading-edge
emissive microdisplays based on wafer-level processing of semiconductor and
compound semiconductor materials. This
metrology engineer will perform material and device characterization, refine
inspection procedures, perform data analysis, and train process staff in
characterization tool use and data interpretation. S/he will further support the company’s
research and development efforts at its Nanotechnology Laboratory. This position includes routine process
characterization in a clean room processing environment, and requires strict
adherence to clean room safety and cleanliness protocols. This position requires demonstrated mastery
with commercially available metrology tools including optical microscopes,
scanning electron microscopes, thin film characterization tools, and atomic
force microscopes. The metrology engineer will work with Ostendo’s
semiconductor process engineers and scientists, develop work instructions,
and implement best practices to ensure process stability while supporting
continuous improvement efforts. The
successful candidate will be an essential team member for processing and
bringing novel semiconductor photonic technology designs from early R&D
stages to production and manufacturing in a total team effort.
The semiconductor manufacturing engineer duties
include, but are not limited to:
·
Familiarizing self with Ostendo’s QPI
R&D process flow and metrology tool set
·
Development of metrology process step
instructions
·
Calibration of metrology tools
·
Characterization of QPI materials and
devices
·
Interpretation and statistical
analysis of metrology data
·
Training of new and current process
team members in metrology tool use and inspection step execution
·
Identification of superior metrology
tools and techniques to improve the quality of QPI devices
·
Coordination with third parties for
limited metrology efforts using tools not currently possessed by Ostendo
Skills
/ Experience:
