About the position

GlobalFoundries Fab 8 is seeking a highly skilled and motivated student to become part of our 300mm factory in Malta, New York. This process engineering role will be responsible for the development and optimization of robust measurement recipes across multiple tool fleets. The engineer will also be expected to support new product development, as well as leveraging their expertise to improve existing processes. Specific duties include recipe management, tool qualification and SPC chart review, running measurement matching studies (GR&R), and NPI support. The ideal candidate can demonstrate a technical mastery of semiconductor metrology techniques and an understanding of a balanced scorecard approach to develop, sustain, and improve semiconductor technologies with quality, cost, and delivery all considered. In this role, you will collaborate with GlobalFoundries internal customers and participate in the development and manufacturing of unit processes for various technologies including FinFET & Si Photonics. You will work on various optical metrology tools such as DragonFly and THK. Your responsibilities will include designing, executing, and analyzing experiments to screen and optimize module unit processes and equipment to meet technology and manufacturing targets. You will engage with integration and device groups in technology development and manufacturing teams to plan and execute projects and implement solutions on schedule. Additionally, you will define and maintain module metrology process and equipment roadmaps, sustain production line operations, and perform metrology tool setup and qualification activities. Continuous improvement efforts will be driven to support throughput improvement, cost reduction, and yield learning, utilizing statistical tools, DOE techniques, and systematic problem-solving skills. You will also use Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) to assess and mitigate risks for manufacturing processes and change point management. All activities must be performed in a safe and responsible manner, supporting all Environmental, Health, Safety & Security requirements and programs.
