๐Ÿ’ผ About This Role

You'll execute cleanroom operations for novel optoelectronic devices powering next-generation quantum computers. Working closely with a Senior Microfabrication Engineer, you'll turn device architectures into physical prototypes by running daily fabrication processes. You'll document process parameters and collaborate in a fast-paced, collaborative environment to advance quantum computing technology.

๐ŸŽฏ What You'll Do

  • Execute daily fabrication steps including thin-film deposition, photolithography, wet/dry etching, and metal lift-off.
  • Run standard metrology to characterize film thickness, stress, and etch rates.
  • Document run cards, process parameters, and yield data for rapid iteration.
  • Assist in maintenance, troubleshooting, and qualification of cleanroom tooling.
  • Collaborate with engineering teams to hand off processed wafers for testing.

๐Ÿ“‹ Requirements

  • PhD in Physics, Electrical Engineering, Materials Science or comparable experience.
  • 1-4 years of hands-on experience in a semiconductor, MEMS, or photonics cleanroom environment.
  • Proficiency with microfabrication techniques: spin coating, mask alignment, sputtering/evaporation, wet/dry etching.
  • High attention to detail and disciplined approach to process documentation.

โœจ Nice to Have

  • Experience in a shared academic or foundry cleanroom facility.
  • Proactive problem-solving mindset in a startup environment.

๐ŸŽ Benefits & Perks
