Collaboration with all levels of the organization and external vendors of the materials and equipment.
We are looking for someone who has:
A PhD or a Master’s degree in Engineering, specializing in Applied Physics, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, or a related field.
Experience with epitaxially grown polysilicon (epi-poly) or other epitaxial growth techniques.
An understanding of LPCVD, thermal oxidation technologies, and semiconductor processing principles (considered an advantage).
Hands-on experience operating furnace equipment, including in-line metrology equipment (considered an advantage).
The ability to identify improvement opportunities and manage projects to implement those improvements.
One or two years of experience in an engineering role, preferably in production or development environments (considered a bonus).
Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work effectively in a team environment.
Strong documentation and quality management skills.
Excellent communication skills in English; proficiency in Swedish is considered a merit.
What we offer you:
The chance to work closely with fantastic colleagues.
The opportunity to work with the latest technology in MEMS.
To be part of a leading company driving technology development in the industry.
Strong knowledge exchange with the world's foremost experts in process integration and process development of MEMS.
