General Description: 

This engineering opportunity requires working within a multidisciplinary team. The candidate should feel enthusiastic about working in a class 10 cleanroom or similar lab environment daily for 80% of the time. The individual will be responsible for implementation and/or overseeing various wafer microfabrication processing steps. This includes preparing detailed and accurate work flow instruction as well as performing various levels of inspection. In addition, they will be required to learn and operate a state-of-the-art precision die bonder in a proficient manner. They will be expected to acquire sufficient understanding for executing fine-alignment D2D or D2W bonding with high yield within a 2-3 month period. 


Essential Duties:

Create process flow with detailed instruction to support new technology development.

Safely handle semiconductor substrates ranging from few millimeter dies to 100mm wafers.

Wafer- and die-level inspection using a variety of inspection and metrology tools such as optical microscope, SEM, profilometer, AFM, etc.

Safely and consistently operate high accuracy semiconductor bonding tools. 

Collect and organize process data, perform data analysis and present weekly summary to the team.

Clear daily communication with the project lead and the team


Required Skills: 

Hands-on semiconductor wafer processing experience with silicon and/or III-V substrates. This requires sufficient knowledge of microfabrication processing steps such as photolithography, thin film deposition, dry etch, etc. 

CAD and mask layout, competent in general physics as well as basic knowledge of electronic circuit theory, experience with operating high precision die bonder or similar, enthusiastic about reading and understanding scientific/engineering journals for application to assigned job duties.


Required Education

Education: BS (minimum) or MS degree in an engineering field (electrical, mechanical, chemical or material science)

Experience: 1-3 years of microfabrication cleanroom experience


Special Requirements:

Must be a US citizen (no dual citizenship), and be willing to obtain security clearance (secret or top secret)

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
