The Day-to-Day:

• Recommends and implements equipment and process modifications to improve production efficiencies, manufacturing techniques and production yields for existing products.
• Experience with Metrology tools such as CD-SEM, spectroscopic ellipsometry, XRF, XRD, SIMS, AFM, optical CD, capacitance-voltage (CV), hall measurements
• Routine data analysis and Statistical Process Chart (SPC) review to identify trends and shifts
• Establish relationships across various departments to drive cohesive learning and cross functional problem solving.
• Develops and conducts statistical analysis such as Design of Experiments (DOE) and Statistical Process Control (SPC) targeting physical cause of failure for yield loss and improving quality.
• Interacts with product design and development personnel to ensure that processes and designs are compatible.
• Perform Measurement System Analysis (MSA), Gage R&R, and tool to tool matching on a wide range of semiconductor measurement systems
• Report and document process issues and equipment malfunctions. Take corrective action and interact with Process Engineers & Equipment Maintenance to identify and resolve non-conformance process and equipment operations.
• Handle material dispositions and work to resolve any lot issues that may arise.
• Assist in creating new procedures and refining existing ones
• Work collaboratively to achieve quarterly set yield and cycle time goals.
• Work with and train junior engineers and process technicians

Minimum Requirements (Must Have):

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Physics, or related STEM field
• 5+ years of metrology engineering experience in a high-volume semiconductor FAB
• Hands-on experience with specific metrology tools (see below)
• Proficiency with SPC software and statistical methods (DOE, Gage R&R, MSA)

Preferred Qualifications (Nice to Have):

• Master's degree in a relevant STEM discipline
• Experience with SiC (silicon carbide) or other wide bandgap semiconductor processes
• Familiarity with specific metrology platforms (e.g., CD-SEM, ellipsometry, XRF, AFM, optical profilometry, overlay metrology)
• Proficiency in data analysis tools such as JMP, Minitab, Python, or R
• Prior experience mentoring or leading junior engineers

The posted salary range is what Wolfspeed reasonably expects to pay for this position. Actual pay for a hired applicant will be determined based on the individual’s job-relevant qualifications, experience, and other determinative factors. In the event it is determined that a different job level upon hire is warranted then that range will be communicated to the hired applicant as soon as reasonably practicable.
