Plasma Technology Process Development Engineer

Key Responsibilities

• Improve current generation plasma activation technology for hybrid bonding and develop next generation plasma technology​ and process

• Design and execute experiments to study various types of plasma and their processes to understand their interaction with bonding surfaces. Analyze data to identify the key and common factor(s) of plasma that contributes to the strongest activation for hybrid bonding.

• Optimize process and/ or drive CIPs to improve current generation plasma chamber. Identify the most suitable plasma technology and conduct CnF tests to define requirements for next generation chamber.

• Deep dive with local & global engineering teams to prototype next gen chamber based on defined requirements. Evaluate proto chamber for hybrid bonding process, propose innovative solutions, and drive engineering optimization.

• Plasma technology & process subject-matter expect to guide account/field teams on tough plasma technical issues in terms of process and physics.

Functional Knowledge

• Good understanding of plasma physics and processes is essential.

• Practical background on any types of plasma technology and its characterization is needed.

• Familiar with common plasma characterization tools (such as OES, ion sensor, RGA, thickness measurement etc.) and methodology.

• Knowhow to analyze surface characterization results (XPS, TEM, phase analysis, SIMS, EELS, etc) is a strong plus.

• Any backgrounds of WoW or CoW bonding is a bonus.

Opportunities

• On-job training on CoW hybrid bonding processes and challenges.

• Developing a state-of-the-art integrated hybrid bonder and play a part in this historical industrial inflection from micro-bump/TCB to hybrid bonding. Working with subject-matter experts in various areas around the globe on plasma product development.

• Technical training on/ exposure to up & downstream integration processes and interaction with hybrid bonding

Requirements

• Engineering or science university educational background.

• > 2 years experiences on plasma HW/ process development preferred.

• 10% travel commitment to the US (California), Taiwan, Korea or Europe

Working Location

• Science Park II, Singapore
