The opportunity

As a Senior Equipment Engineering Technician (Etch) within our Manufacturing Engineering team you will play a critical role in maintaining and optimizing plasma etch systems that are essential to our waveguide manufacturing process. This is a highly hands-on role focused on maximizing tool uptime resolving complex failures and driving performance improvements in a cleanroom environment.

You will partner closely with Equipment Engineering Process Engineering and Operations teams to support high-volume manufacturing and ensure stable repeatable tool performance.

What youll do

• Perform advanced troubleshooting repair and maintenance on plasma etch systems (Plasma-Therm or similar dry etch tools)
• Diagnose and resolve issues across vacuum systems RF power delivery gas flow systems and plasma processes
• Troubleshoot electrical mechanical and pneumatic subsystems including motors pumps valves sensors and PLC-controlled systems
• Support tool recovery and uptime efforts minimizing downtime in a high-volume manufacturing environment
• Execute and continuously improve preventive and corrective maintenance procedures
• Partner with Process and Equipment Engineers on tool optimization experiments and process stability improvements
• Analyze equipment performance data to identify root cause and recurring failure modes
• Support vendor interactions and escalations including remote diagnostics and onsite service coordination
• Train and mentor junior technicians; develop SOPs and technical documentation
• Ensure compliance with cleanroom and safety protocols

What youll bring

• 5 years of hands-on experience supporting semiconductor manufacturing equipment with a strong preference for etch tools
• Direct experience with plasma etch systems (Plasma-Therm Lam Applied Materials or similar)
• Strong understanding of vacuum systems RF / plasma systems gas delivery and process tool integration
• Proven ability to troubleshoot complex systems across electrical mechanical and pneumatic domains
• Experience with PLC systems sensors alarms and system-level diagnostics
• Comfortable working independently in a fast-paced high-urgency manufacturing environment
• Familiarity with cleanroom operations and protocols
• Experience documenting maintenance and work orders in systems such as CMMS or equivalent

Its exciting if you also have

• Experience specifically with Plasma-Therm etch tools
• Prior support of high-volume semiconductor or advanced manufacturing environments
• Experience with RF matching networks mass flow controllers (MFCs) and vacuum pumps (turbo/roughing)
• Exposure to process troubleshooting alongside engineering teams
