Job Title:

Real-Time Defect Analysis Process Engineer, Advanced Technology Japan

(English follows after Japanese)

About the Role:

We are seeking a skilled Real-Time Defect Analysis (RDA) Process Engineer to join our Advanced Technology team in Japan. As an RDA Process Engineer, you will collaborate with Process Integration, Yield Enhancement, Production, and Quality Engineering teams to identify opportunities for baseline yield improvement and excursion control.

• Design, setup, and analyze SWRs to evaluate and implement process changes that could bring opportunities for yield improvements at the fastest possible time.
• Timely follow up on network lesson learnt thru Global Conversion Process (GCP) or Fast Follower (FF) or other means.
• Identify and push for key conversions that will improve yields thru data and make conclusions/recommendations for the next phase.
• Develop and send out periodic useful reports on metrics that tracks the performance of a specific defect(s).
• Review defect trends frequently and react accordingly.
• Partner with Production and Shift Engineering to implement corrective actions for excursions through reaction mechanisms and other line control methods.

Responsibilities:

• Setting up containment, defect, and performance qualification procedures and frequency of sampling.
• Respond to Probe/Backend issues accordingly.
• Characterizing the process response to parameters thru SWR summaries.
• Defining the process margin with respect to upstream and downstream steps.
• Qualifying conversions and new processes via Global Conversion Progress (GCP) business process.
• Improving the process cost of ownership, throughput, and performance thru SOAK/TOAK tool /2nd reticle/chemical supplier releases.
• Reducing scrap and excursion prevention/mitigation.
• Assist in overall RDA cycle time management and capacity by optimizing sampling or inspection steps accordingly.
• Document and share improvement activities with sister fabs in the network.
• Work on long term projects with OCT to improve and align BKMs in the Fab.
• Work with Suppliers to improve inline detection and/or determine process relevancy.
• Cover other process loops when needed
• Adhere to Fab discipline at all time
• Leader responsibility when required
• Maintain Mumetric/YMS or similar metric system
• Update line health on daily basis according to SOP
• Prioritise daily task/meeting for efficient execution
• Encourage to write technical paper
• Update weekly when required

Requirements:

• Bachelor Degree and above or relevant working experience

Salary: $80,000 - $120,000 per year
