Pursuing an MS or PhD in Materials Science, Electrical Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, or a related field connected to semiconductor fabrication.
Experience with advanced microelectronics processes is required. Direct experience with silicon semiconductor processing is preferred.
Hands-on laboratory experience in semiconductor processing is highly preferred, especially in wet processes such as solvent strip, wet etch, electroplating, or related chemical processing. Experience with analytical or metrology tools such as SEM, profilometry, XRF, or similar techniques is also preferred. Candidates should be able to understand process details and identify opportunities for improvement.
Experience with statistical design of experiments is an important skill for this role. The candidate should be able to analyze process details, support process development, improve process performance, and help troubleshoot technical issues.
Candidates must have strong interpersonal, problem-solving, and communication skills to work effectively within and across teams. They should be able to present complex technical problems in a clear, logical, and easy-to-follow manner.
Must be highly motivated, open to engineering direction, and able to build on newly acquired knowledge to complete tasks in support of aggressive product development schedules and high-volume manufacturing expectations.
Keysight Internship Program Requirements
Candidates who wish to be considered must be currently enrolled in a accredited college/university as of September 2027. Applicants who have graduated before September 2027 will not be considered unless they are starting a MS or PHD program after graduating.
Visa Sponsorship is not available for this position. Candidates who now or at any point in the future require sponsorship for post internship employment visa status (e.g., H-1B Visa status) may not be considered.
This position requires access to certain goods, software, technology, or technical data subject to U.S. export control laws and regulations. Under these laws and regulations, U.S. persons (which includes U.S. citizens, U.S. nationals, lawful permanent residents, refugees, and asylees) working for Keysight can access export-controlled items without authorization from the U.S. government. For any individual who is not a U.S. person, Keysight may need authorization from the U.S. Department of State, U.S. Department of Commerce, or other appropriate federal agency before the individual can access export-controlled items. Employment in this position for non-U.S. persons is contingent on Keysight’s ability to obtain any required government authorizations.
