FEOL Integration Engineer

Job Details:

Job Description:

Manufacturing Development Customer Engineering (MDCE) is Intel's newest organization within Intel Foundry Technology Manufacturing (FTM). We bridge the critical gap between Technology Development (TD) and High Volume Manufacturing (HVM), advancing technology nodes from initial product qualification to high-yield production across multiple products while enhancing technologies for our foundry customers. MDCE is also chartered to develop new technologies on mature node infrastructure to bring new solutions to new customers at reliable yield and performance and low cost, and this is where you are going to play a role.
MDCE engineers in Ireland work within F34 at Leixlip, Ireland. F34 opened in 2023 and began high-volume production of Intel 4 technology. This milestone also represents the deployment by Intel of extreme ultraviolet lithography in high-volume manufacturing for the first time globally. Since 1989, Intel has invested more than 30 billion in Ireland creating the most advanced industrial campus in Europe, and Intel Ireland is home to Europe's most advanced high scale semi-conductor foundry fab.

Key Responsibilities:

• Leading engineering projects to execute high-volume manufacturing (HVM) yield roadmaps and achieve performance targets.

• Collaborating with Technology Development and Local Yield teams to implement new technologies in production fabs.

• Working with FEOL/BEOL Integration, Device, Defect Reduction, and Yield Analysis teams to identify root causes of yield and performance issues and executing mitigation plans within set timelines.

• Conducting feasibility studies and experiments to characterize processes and enhance product performance throughout development.

• Managing New Product Introductions (NPI) in production fabs and optimizing processes to meet foundry customer specifications.

• Partnering with Local Yield teams to improve product yield, quality, performance, and reduce wafer costs.

• Outstanding verbal and written communication skills with ability to effectively convey complex technical concepts to diverse audiences

• Demonstrated success in driving technical projects from conception to implementation

Qualifications:

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in a relevant science or engineering field, with at least 5 years of experience.

• Experience in advanced node semiconductor industry, specifically in FEOL Process Integration; level of experience will influence job grade.

• Proficient understanding of Device Physics, with experience in FinFET or Gate-All-Around technology development or high-volume manufacturing.

• Familiarity with module processes such as lithography, dry etch, wet etch, CMP, diffusion, implant, thin films, and metrology.

• Strong problem-solving skills, self-initiative, and ability to learn independently.

• Ability to collaborate effectively with multi-functional and multi-cultural teams.

• Excellent communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications

• Advanced degree (Master's or Ph.D.) in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or Materials Science; related fields may be considered based on industry experience.

• Experience in project/program management and/or as a TFT lead.

• Strong interpersonal skills, including the ability to influence and motivate others.

• Experience engaging with external foundry customers through technical interactions.

• Background in new semiconductor technology development.

• Experience in fabrication process engineering including: (lithography and advanced patterning, dry etch processes, wet cleaning technologies, diffusion processes, thin-film deposition, and chemical mechanical planarization (CMP)

• Semiconductor foundry experience
