Develop and support optical metrology applications for semiconductor manufacturing customers. Responsibilities include planning sensor and software use, conducting feasibility studies, configuring measurement programs, supporting customer installations and evaluations, training customers, and collaborating with global application, service, and systems teams. The role requires semiconductor process knowledge, statistical analysis, strong communication skills, and up to 25% domestic and international travel.

Provides on-site application support and semiconductor metrology solutions for CMP, CVD, lithography, and etch processes. Builds technical customer relationships, investigates process issues, conducts demonstrations and training, supports pre-sales activities, develops applications with global teams, and supplies sales and marketing information. Requires advanced physical, materials science, or chemical engineering education, semiconductor process knowledge, strong troubleshooting and communication skills, and willingness to travel.

Performs manufacturing quality control, inspections, audits, root-cause analysis, corrective actions, and process development for semiconductor metrology equipment. Owns quality documentation, work instructions, BOMs, drawings, QMS compliance, and ECO implementation. Supports NPI, continuous improvement, customer failure investigations, ISO audits, manufacturing troubleshooting, and cross-functional technical solutions across engineering, production, supply chain, and quality teams.

Leads feasibility, integration, testing, verification, validation, and qualification of advanced electro-opto-mechanical hardware systems. Develops test plans, fixtures, automation tools, and technical reports; performs troubleshooting, root-cause analysis, system characterization, and performance evaluation. Collaborates with multidisciplinary engineering teams, suppliers, laboratories, manufacturing, service, and customers to transfer new technologies from development into production and field deployment.

Supports Nova’s XPS and XRF material metrology solutions in semiconductor fabs. Responsibilities include customer demonstrations, application development, product proliferation, technical presentations, customer support, troubleshooting, field installation and maintenance assistance, training, and technical reporting. The role requires collaboration with customers, metrology engineers, service teams, and global internal stakeholders, with international travel of up to 30%.

Lead optical engineering research, design, simulation, testing, characterization, and qualification for high-end semiconductor metrology tools. Own light sources, optical fibers, optical modules, physical modeling, lab setups, vendor management, and technical documentation. Collaborate with hardware and systems teams to deliver opto-mechanical and electro-optical modules and support production and service transfer.

Perform theoretical and experimental systems engineering for multidisciplinary optical measurement products in semiconductor metrology. Translate customer needs into system requirements and technical specifications, manage KPIs, conduct diagnostics and root-cause analysis, develop calibration methods, and support integration, validation, manufacturing transfer, and customer-site deployment.

Leads end-to-end optical system architecture and multidisciplinary development for semiconductor metrology tools. Responsibilities include performance budgeting, algorithm and data analysis, cross-functional technical decisions, system integration, testing, calibration, diagnostics, manufacturing transfer, customer support, and mentoring engineers. Requires deep expertise across optics, physics, algorithms, electronics, mechanics, and software, with hands-on Python or MATLAB programming and occasional international customer travel.

Own costing, cost analysis, inventory management, and supply chain planning activities. Responsibilities include analyzing work order variances, purchased-item costs, inventory transactions, slow and obsolete inventory, end-of-life material planning, quarterly inventory comparisons, and inventory counts. The role coordinates with Finance and Operations, validates period-end close activities, investigates discrepancies, drives corrective actions, and presents findings to management.

The Senior System Engineer will develop and integrate metrology solutions for semiconductor manufacturing, collaborating with design and product teams, conducting R&D, and managing system performance and customer relationships.
