The Area
Plasma etching is a key technology used to remove thin films of metals, semiconductors, and dielectrics across a wide range of applications. Each product has unique requirements, demanding carefully tailored processes. To meet these needs, the Plasma Etch area operates more than twenty process chambers, specialized for different applications and sourced from multiple equipment suppliers.
The team consists of four Process Engineers and twelve Service Technicians, working closely together to ensure high process stability, equipment uptime, and continuous improvement.
The role
As Silex continues to expand, you will play a key role by contributing deep expertise in plasma etching. Your primary responsibility will be to ensure that manufacturing targets are met, in close collaboration with operators and service technicians.
A central part of the role is developing new processes and enabling the etching of novel materials. You will take ownership of process development-from initial concept and feasibility, through optimization, to implementation of robust, production-ready recipes suitable for high-volume manufacturing.
In this role, you will:
Identify opportunities for general process improvements and long-term development within the area.
Develop, maintain, and optimize plasma etching processes for new products including reviewing specifications and process flows.
Develop and maintain operator work instructions and trainings, and ensure adherence to established routines.
Handle non-conforming production batches and development material together with Process Integration Engineers.
Participate in qualification of new equipment and materials, and release them to production.
Troubleshoot process and equipment-related issues by identifying root causes and implementing effective CAPA actions.
Collaborate with Product Managers and Process Integration Engineers (PIs) on development activities and production issues.
We are looking for someone who has:
A Master's degree in Engineering (e.g., Applied Physics, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, or similar).
A solid understanding of plasma physics and semiconductor processing principles.
Hands-on experience with dry etch equipment (e.g., RIE, DRIE, ICP).
At least three years of industry experience in an engineering role, preferably working with plasma etching.
A proactive mindset with the ability to identify improvement opportunities and drive projects to completion.
Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to collaborate effectively in cross-functional teams.
Great documentation and quality management skills.
Strong communication skills in English; Swedish is considered a merit.
What we offer you
An opportunity to work closely with talented and inspiring colleagues in a collaborative environment.
A chance to be part of a world-leading company, driving the future of MEMS technology.
The ability to engage with cutting-edge innovations that shape global industries and everyday life.
The satisfaction of contributing directly to transformative technologies at the industry's most advanced pure-play MEMS foundry.
