The Role: Process Steward
At our Sherman, TX facility, Process Technicians are not merely operators; they are Process Stewards. You are entrusted with the stewardship of advanced semiconductor manufacturing processes, part of an exciting and rapid expansion in North Texas. On D Shift, you serve as the primary authority for production stability, making high-stakes, real-time decisions to ensure that every wafer meets our uncompromising standards. As a Steward, you do not just execute a process—you own the stability, quality, and yield of that process. You will be part of the latest and greatest megafab right here in the Silicon Prairie.
The Quality-First Mindset
In semiconductor manufacturing, excellence is measured in atoms. We are looking for individuals who possess an innate Quality-First Mindset. This means:
•
Zero-Defect Mentality: You don’t just see a passing parameter; you look for the subtle trend that indicates a future failure.
•
Precision Obsession: You understand that a minor deviation in a CMP slurry or a Wet etch cycle can have massive downstream consequences.
•
Integrity in Data: You believe that accurate data is the foundation of quality, and you take pride in the meticulous documentation of every process step.
•
Proactive Vigilance: You don’t wait for an alarm to react; you anticipate deviations through disciplined monitoring and technical intuition.
Key Responsibilities
1.
Process Execution & Control (CMP & Wet)
•
Process Management: Independently manage and execute complex CMP recipes using AMAT and Ebara platforms to ensure precise planarization.
•
Chemical Control: Oversee critical Wet Process sequences using Celleste, TEL and DNS equipment, ensuring strict adherence to chemical concentrations and etch rates.
•
Stability Monitoring: Constantly monitor real-time process parameters (slurry flow, endpoint detection, and rinse cycles) to prevent process excursions.
•
Recipe Stewardship: Ensure all automated systems are running the correct, validated recipes to maintain high-volume production integrity.
2.
Yield Excellence & Metrology
•
Precision Inspection: Utilize advanced KLA and AMAT metrology tools to monitor surface topography, particle counts, and defect density.
•
Trend Analysis: Actively analyze metrology data to detect and intercept potential yield loss before it impacts the production line.
•
Root-Cause Support: Provide critical data and observations to Process Engineers to facilitate rapid root-cause analysis of process deviations.
3.
Operational Leadership (D Shift)
•
Real-Time Decision Making: Utilize SOPs and advanced decision trees to resolve process abnormalities and system alarms with speed and accuracy.
•
Seamless Handover: Maintain rigorous, real-time documentation in the MES to ensure the incoming shift has total visibility into process health and yield trends.
Core Competencies:
•
Safe. Right. Fast: Safety is first priority always. Do it safely, do it right, and do it fast.
•
Analytical Rigor: The ability to interpret complex metrology data and identify patterns.
•
Self-Direction: The ability to work independently and maintain high standards during night shift operations.
•
Technical Communication: Clear and concise reporting of process deviations to engineering teams.
•
Act as an extension to process engineering: Become a reliable partner for executing process experiments to quickly determine root cause, enhance yield, improve cycle time and reduce holds.
