  • 5+ years of hands-on experience supporting semiconductor, R&D, or manufacturing equipment
  • Strong background in vacuum systems (HV/UHV) including chamber assembly, component cleaning, and leak testing
  • Experience operating or maintaining thin-film deposition tools such as sputtering or evaporation systems
  • Skilled in servicing and refurbishing vacuum pumps (scroll, turbo, cryo)
  • Working knowledge of low- and high-voltage electrical systems, cable harness fabrication, and system wiring
  • Ability to troubleshoot electrical and instrumentation systems using bench tools and diagnostics equipment
  • Understanding of safety protocols including OSHA, LOTO, and PPE use in lab environments
  • Strong safety-first mindset and attention to detail in high-hazard environments

  • Knowledge of cryogenics, thermal control systems, and process gas delivery
  • Familiarity with SEMI equipment standards and maintenance tracking tools (CMMS, lab management software).
  • Basic CAD skills for reviewing and modifying mechanical and electrical designs
  • Must-have Requirements:

  • Ability to occasionally lift up to 50 lbs
  • Perform activities such as stooping, climbing, standing, or sitting for extended periods of time
