๐ผ 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.
๐ฏ 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.
๐ 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.
โจ Nice to Have
- Experience in a shared academic or foundry cleanroom facility.
- Proactive problem-solving mindset in a startup environment.
๐ Benefits & Perks
- ๐ฌ Work on cutting-edge quantum computing
- ๐ข Collaborative startup culture
- โ๏ธ Access to state-of-the-art cleanroom
