Job Description:

The Role: 

As a Senior Analytics and Metrology professional in the SPI Laboratory, you will support R&D through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging, sample preparation, and analytical testing, including ICP-OES analysis and Karl Fischer titration. 

In this hands-on role, you will deliver high-quality images, reliable measurements, and accurate analytical data to support materials characterization and experimental evaluation.  

In this role you will: 

• Prepare wafer and coupon samples and acquire SEM images to characterize surface morphology, features, and defects in accordance with testing requirements. 

• Conduct analytical testing and related measurements using ICP-OES analysis and Karl Fischer titration in accordance with established procedures. 

• Follow safety, quality, and compliance standards within the laboratory environment  

• Collaborate with engineering, R&D, and operations teams to support process monitoring and improvement through experimental testing and analysis, developing a clear understanding of experimental work, while maintaining accurate documentation and contributing to method development and validation. 

Traits we believe make a strong candidate: 

• Bachelor’s degree or higher in materials science, chemistry, physics, or a related engineering field. 

• 3+ years of relevant experience in laboratory analysis, metrology, or semiconductor materials characterization. 

• Hands-on experience operating SEM equipment to acquire high-quality, reproducible images, with the ability to assess image quality, document sample features, and identify imaging or measurement artifacts and anomalous results, is required. 

• Strong sense of ownership and responsibility in laboratory work. 

• Effective communication skills with the ability to collaborate with global engineering teams and a willingness to learn 

Your success will be measured by: 

• Consistent delivery of high-quality SEM images and reliable analytical data that meet testing requirements. 

• Timely completion of sample preparation, imaging, and analytical testing in accordance with priorities and schedules. 

• Complete, accurate, and traceable documentation of samples, instrument settings, images, and test results. 

• Effective collaboration with R&D teams and timely communication of testing progress, anomalous results, and equipment issues. 

• Consistent compliance with laboratory EHS requirements and operating procedures.
