Senior Equipment Engineer

Indium Phosphide (InP) TechnologyThe world's communications infrastructure depends on semiconductor lasers, and particularly those based on indium phosphide technology. Indium phosphide lasers are engineered to emit at wavelengths that are optimal for long-distance transmission through fiber optics. In short, they enable the optical networks that form the global internet. Coherent's broad portfolio of InP components includes application-specific Fabry-Pérot lasers, directly modulated lasers (DMLs), and tunable lasers. It also includes photodiodes for high-speed receivers and power monitoring. In 2022, we introduced 200 Gbps indium phosphide electro-absorption modulated lasers (EMLs) for high-speed datacenter transceivers. This design provides our customers with the most advanced, robust, and cost-competitive laser devices for their 800G and next-gen 1.6T datacom transceiver designs. Our world-class and highly reliable InP technology platform is one of the very few in the industry that has been proven, with more than one hundred million lasers in the field deployed over the last decades.Primary Duties & ResponsibilitiesEquipment install + qualification (new fab tools)Sustainment: troubleshooting, repairs, documentationPartner with process engineers to fix production issuesManage vendors + tool performance metricsAble to write purchase req's for vendors and partsImplement Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) strategiesEducation & ExperienceAA or BS and 10+ years in wafer fab equipment engineering.Experience in photolithographyProfessional certifications is a plusSkillsSemiconductor fab experience with ICP, RIE etcher, PECVD tools Ebeam's and sputters.Strong troubleshooting + data analysisCross-functional collaboration (process + manufacturing teams)Programming / data science increasingly valuedGood communication & interpersonal skillsWorking ConditionsFab work - Require to in a bunny suit, facemask, gloves and booties.
