Responsibilities
We focus on process research and development, process integration, and New Product Introduction. You will lead the development of next-generation System in Package (SiP) modules that will be integrated with microwave and mmWave subsystems across Keysight, serving multiple industries.
Drive process control and stability through statistical process control (SPC), root cause analysis, and corrective actions using statistical tools (e.g., JMP)
Work closely with other process, integration, product, and SiP design engineers to define process and performance targets
Defining process flows, develop new processes and drive continuous process improvement (CPI) efforts to maximize product yield
Develop and maintain high yields; report process metrics, root cause investigations, and process change implementations at the department level
Ensure successful process hand off to manufacturing partners
Work with Operations to implement robust process control and support production processes; diagnose and resolve process problems with urgency
Champion and lead capital equipment acquisition projects that include tool evaluation, characterization, process development, and qualification
Propose Desing of Experiment (DOE) plans, conducting experiments, and implementing process changes in a controlled fashion.
Collaborate with equipment engineering on tool performance optimization, preventive maintenance strategies, throughput enhancements
Lead technical development of new SiP introductions in collaboration with upstream design teams, process and manufacturing teams, and downstream customer teams
Meet accelerated project schedules; communicate and manage risks
Develop and maintain high yields while adhering to project schedules
Depending on the candidate’s expertise, responsibilities may include one or more of the following domains:
Die attach: flip chip and thermocompression bonding (TCB)
Surface cleaning and preparation
Automatic adhesive dispense and pick and place, SMT
Automatic die singulation and sort
Metrology: profilometry, SEM, XRF, optical microscopy, automatic inspection
Broader experience in upstream and downstream processes and the ability to understand process interactions is valued.
Review new designs for manufacturability and provide feedback to module designers
Qualifications
Required Qualifications
M.S. or Ph.D. in Materials Science, Physics, Chemistry, Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Mechatronics, or relevant fields coupled with applicable experience training and interest in semiconductor fabrication processes.
B.S. graduates with relevant experimental research experience will also be considered.
Qualified candidates must be a recent graduate in 2026 or degree completed by June 2027.
Candidates must be local or willing to relocate to Santa Rosa, CA
We are seeking a recent graduate with expertise/academic training or internship experience in one or more of the following areas:
Cleanroom, microelectronics, or related experimental research
Proven experience in process development and data-driven process optimization
Strong problem-solving and analytical skills for controlling process variation
Excellent interpersonal, verbal, written and presentation communication skills. The successful candidate must be able to communicate complex technical information in a clear, concise, and direct manner, present data effectively to both small and large audiences, and collaborate productively across cross-functional teams.
Strong accountability, self-initiative and proactive attitude are required for success.
The following qualifications are desired but not required
Industrial semiconductor, advanced packaging, or Heterogeneous integration experience
Familiarity with programming and operating automatic assembly equipment
Knowledge of and experience with forming metallurgical bonds between similar metals
Experience with adhesives, underfill materials, and dispense processes
Experience with wafer singulation processes
Thermal, mechanical and electrical reliability
Project lifecycle
III-V compound semiconductors and/or silicon technologies
This role requires working inside a cleanroom for several hours each day. Candidates should be comfortable handling real products and flexing their time between the cleanroom and the office space.
Candidates must be local or willing to relocate to Santa Rosa, CA
This position requires access to certain goods, software, technology, or technical data subject to U.S. export control laws and regulations.
