Process Engineer - Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD)

What you will do

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Process Engineer specializing in Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD), to strengthen imec’s FAB engineering department.

As a Process Engineer, you are responsible for the standard processes and tools, and the introduction of new tools and processes in our pilot production line, both 200mm and 300mm. Typical responsibilities include: 

  • You become a tool(s)/application expert and you get ownership of the tool; process performance, reservations, throughput, back-ups, training, first point of contact, etc. 
  • You maintain your processes, monitor stability with SPC, resolve issues, and identify and implement improvements with respect to safety, quality and/or efficiency. 
  • You analyze and execute requests for new process developments in collaboration with the internal or external customer. 
  • You set-up experimental plans, you execute them in the cleanroom, analyze the data, and interpret the results. 
  • You transfer processes from the R&D stage to the pilot production line in collaboration with researchers and operators. 
  • You document processes, and ensure quality & safety levels are met. 
  • You support new tool installations from process point of view: installing new recipes, qualifying the tool, setting up the process control monitors, contamination checks, etc. 

In summary, a very diverse and interesting role with significant responsibilities that allow you to gain a lot of expertise and build a large internal network. 

What we do for you

We offer you the opportunity to join one of the world’s premier research centers in nanotechnology at its headquarters in Leuven, Belgium. With your talent, passion and expertise, you’ll become part of a team that makes the impossible possible. Together, we shape the technology that will define the society of tomorrow.

We are committed to being an inclusive employer and proud of our open, multicultural, and informal working environment with ample possibilities to take initiative and show responsibility. We commit to supporting and guiding you in this process; not only with words but also with tangible actions. Through imec.academy, 'our corporate university', we actively invest in your development to further your technical and personal growth. 

We are aware that your valuable contribution makes imec a top player in its field. Your energy and commitment are therefore appreciated by means of a market appropriate salary with many fringe benefits.
