Introduction

Are you a process engineer that is a team player looking for a dynamic high-tech work environment with growth potential We might be looking for you! In this function you will work in multidisciplinary teams all around the globe on challenging projects developing both your leadership and technical skills.

NXP Semiconductors N.V. provides High Performance Mixed Signal and Standard Product solutions that leverage its leading RF Analog Power Management Interface Security and Digital Processing expertise. These innovations are used in a wide range of automotive identification wireless infrastructure lighting industrial mobile consumer and computing applications. A global semiconductor company with operations in more than 35 countries over 45.000 employees and a revenue of over$12 billion.

ICN8 is the largest 8integrated circuits wafer fab in Europe. It is a high-tech environment with many multi discipline challenges housing over 450 manufacturing tools (ASML ASM/TEL Applied Material LAM) and 150 measurement tools (inline inspections end of inline testing). Products are made in CMOS BIMOS RFCMOS and SOI processes.

Job Mission

Responsible for the investigation checking controlling and improving of the defectivity levels in current and new processes within ICN8 manufacturing ( 8 Fab).

Job Description

You will join the Defectivity group which is part of the PSE organization. This Process Sustaining and Enhancement (PSE) organization is part of ICN8 and has the responsibility to improve and maintain the running process technologies.

For an Automotive technology which is being ramped-up defect detection and reduction is key to meet the high quality requirements of the produced products. To enable these activities state-of-the-art defect inspection tools have been purchased and installed. The tools have multiple optical channels and large computing power. There is the capability to tailor the inspection to the product lay-out.

Yields in integrated circuit manufacturing are for a large part determined by the presence of defects. Your responsibility is the successful management of the top ICN8 defectivity problems. Together with tool process and equipment engineers your challenge is to successfully control and/or reduce defects levels.

Activities include optimizing defect inspection strategies implementing best known methods for the use of the available defect inspection technology tool set as well as supporting the Defectivity employees in the fab.
