Job Description

Process module ownership involving regE process characterizations and advanced process developments for 3D NAND and beyond. Work with process development engineers in Singapore and Boise, US TD site and vendors to develop regE processes that meet integration requirements for next-generation 3-D NAND nodes. Transfer regE processes to high volume manufacturing (Fab10), and work on continuous improvements to manufacturability. Address specific wafer edge issues (such as bevel defects, uniformity issues), working with Fab10N team and with key business partners on tool choices for manufacturing, evaluations etc., as applicable. Focus on understanding and improving regE process margins required for meeting the mature yield goal for 3D NAND parts. Initiate and manage experiments to widen regE process margins as well as to test out manufacturability of next node solutions Incorporate best known manufacturing methods into early development phase of upcoming nodes. Design and implement advanced process monitoring and control methodologies. Lead team or sites or suppliers on complex, multi-disciplinary projects in quality focused meetings, process and yield improvement meetings, cost and productivity improvement meetings Provide advice and counsel to management on significant technical issues. Leads and initiate innovation projects through patents/technical papers. This position requires communications and collaboration with partners both locally and globally. Be part of the continuous worldwide TD engagement with suppliers pushing for breakthrough solutions. Requirements Bachelors' degree or higher in Materials Science, Chemical Engineering or Physics with minimum 2 years hands-on experiences in relevant regE process developments. Familiarity with regE process developments and yield improvements. Understanding of various integration and structural impacts and constraints related to wafer edge. An understanding of the general process steps and process flow for memory processing, planar and vertical NAND memory in particular. Working knowledge of data analysis systems e.g.: Y3 to facilitate analysis of experimental data Working knowledge of Design of Experiments (DoE) Proven ability to collaborate with local and overseas teams on projects Excellent oral and written communication skills with ability to convey the message in concise and effective manner both in local as well as remote communications. Proven ability to work in a demanding & dynamic environment and able to prioritize and manage multiple projects simultaneously Working Location: 1, North Coast Drive, Singapore 757432
