Litho R&D Engineer (H/F/X)

As Litho R&D Engineer you will be a member of the LithoDev ALPCOMPUTE Process Development team, part of the Advanced Patterning department, responsible for developing the lithography processes requested by the process integration departments running imec’s CORE programs, Joint Development Projects, internal advanced patterning projects and technology transfer projects. What you will do You will be responsible for analyzing and discussing lithography process development requests. You design and execute the experimental plan in the cleanroom and analyze and interpret the experimental results. You are expected to deliver high quality lithography processes for leading edge logic and interconnet technology platforms that meet module research and manufacturability requirements. You will work together with the mask design team to generate lithography design rules and collect OPC data for new test mask design and tape out. You document and transfer the lithography processes to the imec pilot production line or a high-volume manufacturing site. Cross-functional Collaboration: Working closely with other engineering teams, such as integration, etch, CMP to ensure the successful integration of overlay control into the overall semiconductor manufacturing process. Monitoring overlay performance on a regular basis and analyzing data to identify trends and potential issues. Analyzing process data to identify areas for improvement and implementing solutions to enhance overlay performance. Generating regular reports on overlay performance and presenting findings to management and other stakeholders. Troubleshooting and resolving any issues related to overlay measurement tools.
