A Semiconductor Process Engineer is sought to develop, transfer, and optimize coated consumable manufacturing processes in a cleanroom environment. The position bridges R&D and manufacturing, supporting NPI, design transfer, process capability, yield improvement, and production troubleshooting. Experience with chemical processing, surface engineering, coating technologies, and statistical process optimization is valuable.
Highlights
Work at the interface of R&D and manufacturing, supporting new product introduction, process transfer, yield improvement, and production problem-solving in a precision cleanroom environment.
Description
Our Oxford based client is currently searching for a Semiconductor Process Engineer to support the development, transfer and optimisation of coated consumable manufacturing processes within a cleanroom environment.
The role will act as a technical bridge between R&D and Manufacturing, supporting NPI, design transfer, process capability, yield improvement and production problem-solving.
The ideal candidate will have experience in chemical processing, surface engineering and coating technologies, ideally within a regulated, precision-manufacturing environment.
Key Responsibilities
Partner with R&D to develop and transfer manufacturing-ready processes for new products.Lead/support technology transfer and NPI industrialisation, providing Design for Manufacture input.Define Critical Process Parameters (CPPs) and Critical Quality Attributes (CQAs).Develop, optimise and control coating, surface preparation and chemical treatment processes.Use DoE, statistical analysis and structured problem-solving to improve process capability, yield, throughput, cost and consistency.Establish and monitor process KPIs and drive continuous improvement.Investigate production issues, process variation and yield loss using root cause analysis.Collaborate with R&D, Manufacturing, Quality, Supply Chain, Operations and external suppliers/technology partners.
Essential Experience
Degree in Chemical Engineering, Materials/Surface Science, Chemistry, Physics or a related discipline.Significant process engineering experience in a regulated manufacturing environment; semiconductor cleanroom experience preferred.Hands-on experience with coating technologies and surface treatments.Experience with statistical analysis tools such as Minitab or JMP.Practical knowledge of DoE, 8D, FMEA and structured problem-solving.Strong analytical, project management, communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.
