Job Title: Senior Staff Opto-Mechanical Engineer
Location: Milpitas, CA
Position: Full time
Responsibilities:
The Surfscan-ADE division of KLA-Tencor is an industry leading supplier of wafer inspection and metrology systems. Wafer suppliers and device manufacturers worldwide rely on our measurement and inspection systems to certify and ensure the highest quality bare silicon substrates. Semiconductor device yields begin with the bare wafer, and our leading technologies provide early insight into surface defects, shape, flatness and nanotopography of these advanced 300 and 450mm substrates. Our optical inspection and metrology tools will support the next several generations of wafer and IC manufacturing.
We are seeking a Senior Opto-Mechanical Engineer whose responsibilities will be to:
Define the architecture of cutting edge wafer inspection systems.
Work alongside optical engineers to understand and engineer solutions to critical opto-mechanical requirements.
Lead the development and qualification of complex opto-mechanical assemblies.
Assume responsibility for design, fabrication, alignment, performance characterization, and technical interaction with vendors.
Perform hands-on use of conventional and cutting edge DUV metrology tools to characterize subsystem performance. System level inspection tool operation will also be used to establish and verify subsystem requirements and operation.
Collaboratively interact with a multidisciplinary project team and regularly communicate requirements and results in oral and written form.
Some travel may be required.
Qualifications :
Candidates must possess the following qualities:
Visionary 3D thinker capable of taking complex concepts and packaging them in a manufacturable design.
Capable 3D modeler who enjoys iterating through multiple product architecture proposals with an open mind for improvement and progress.
Understand complex mechanical tolerancing.
Able to collaborate with Optical Engineers to engineer a complete alignment methodology.
Top down thinker who understands all current manufacturing technologies.
Experience taking conceptual information and architecting multiple solutions and approaches to solving design challenges.
Experience with actively adapting to changing design requirements.
Firm foundation in machine design.
Experience with optical alignment methodology and tooling.
Candidates will have some combination of the following qualities:
Experience with Opto-Mechanical design principles: kinematic design, flexures, athermalization, environmental effects.
Experience designing opto-mechanical modules and custom fixtures and tooling leading to successful introduction into manufacturing.
Structural analysis: finite element analysis, stress in optics, creep and stress relaxation, modal analysis.
Experience working with Optical metrology equipment including lasers, interferometers, autocollimators.
Fundamental optics knowledge: geometric optics, ray tracing, wavefront propogation, polarization, fabrication tolerances, environmental effects desired.
Thermal analysis: heat transfer, temperature gradients, thermal transients, thermo-elastic analysis.
Vendor management: component fabrication, manufacturing process transfer, qualification.
Bachelor's Level Degree with at least 12 years of experience or equivalent.
OR
Master's Level Degree with at least 8 years of experience or equivalent.
OR
Doctorate (Academic) with at least 5 years of experience or equivalent.
