KLA is a global leader in diversified electronics for the semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem. Virtually every electronic device in the world is produced using our technologies. No laptop, smartphone, wearable device, voice-controlled gadget, flexible screen, VR device or smart car would have made it into your hands without us. KLA invents systems and solutions for the manufacturing of wafers and reticles, integrated circuits, packaging, printed circuit boards and flat panel displays. The innovative ideas and devices that are advancing humanity all begin with inspiration, research and development. KLA focuses more than average on innovation and we invest 15% of sales back into R&D. Our expert teams of physicists, engineers, data scientists and problem-solvers work together with the world’s leading technology providers to accelerate the delivery of tomorrow’s electronic devices. Life here is exciting and our teams thrive on tackling really hard problems. There is never a dull moment with us.
Group/Division
With over 40 years of semiconductor process control experience, chipmakers around the globe rely on KLA to ensure that their fabs ramp next-generation devices to volume production quickly and cost-effectively. Enabling the movement towards advanced chip design, KLA's Global Products Group (GPG), which is responsible for creating all of KLA’s metrology and inspection products, is looking for the best and the brightest research scientist, software engineers, application development engineers, and senior product technology process engineers. The RAPID division is the world leading provider of reticle inspection solutions for the semiconductor industry. The company provides inspection solutions to both the mask shops and the semiconductor fabs to ensure that lithography yields are consistently high thus enabling cost-effective manufacturing.
Job Description/Preferred Qualifications
At our core, we build sophisticated semiconductor equipment that depends on precision engineering, disciplined execution, and people who enjoy solving difficult hardware problems. We are looking for a Senior Engineering Technician who wants to be directly involved in building, testing, troubleshooting, repairing, and installing complex semiconductor systems. This is a hands-on role where we work closely with engineers to turn designs into functioning hardware and continuously improve the reliability and performance of our equipment.
We are interested in someone who takes pride in figuring things out. When a subsystem is not performing as expected, do you want to understand why? When a vacuum chamber fails qualification, do you dig into the details rather than wait for someone else to solve the problem? If so, you may be a strong fit for our team.
