• Develop and define integrated front-end and back-end process flows for new technology nodes.
• Coordinate across lithography, etch, deposition, diffusion, wet clean, CMP, dielectric, and metrology teams.
• Optimize RC (resistance-capacitance) performance.
• Establish process windows and integration schemes.
• Analyze yield loss and parametric failures.
• Perform root cause analysis using statistical tools (SPC, DOE, FMEA).
• Drive corrective actions to improve yield and cycle time.
• Implement control plans and process monitoring strategies.
• Use statistical tools such as: Cpk / Ppk, Control charts, Capability analysis
• Ensure margins for electromigration, stress migration, TDDB, time dependent via degradation.
• Evaluate impact of process window shifts on reliability.
• Support ramp from R and D to high-volume manufacturing (HVM).
• Document process specifications and standard operating procedures (SOPs).
