Job Description
In this role, you will be responsible for performing advanced-level repair, calibration, and preventative maintenance on semiconductor equipment within the Diffusion area. You will demonstrate the ability to take on a leadership role by evaluating maintenance requirements and ensuring maximum availability of production equipment.
You will interface closely with Production and Engineering teams to identify and resolve process-related issues, while providing technical guidance and support to lower-level technicians. As part of this role, you will determine methods and procedures for new assignments and may serve as an informal team leader—directing area shift pass-downs and setting priorities based on production requirements for the rest of the team.
Success in this position requires the ability to work effectively on complex, challenging tasks both independently and as part of a collaborative team.
