R&D Process Integration Engineer Platform Team

Research \& development \- Leuven \| Just now

Join imec’s POET team as a Front\-End\-of\-Line (FEOL) Integration Engineer. Contribute to technology development, module optimization, sustaining advanced CMOS process flows and technology transfer readiness. This role offers strong technical exposure and cross \-functional visibility with a focus on Gate\-All\-Around (GAA) technology architecture development. You will interface closely with process modules, device and design teams.

What you will do
--------------------

• Process Integration:

+ Work on Front End of Line (FEOL) and Middle of Line (MOL) modules for GAA technology nodes. A deep understanding of epitaxial and gate module is desired. Knowledge of legacy nodes (including Finfet, planer nodes) is a bonus.
+ Partner with process modules (lithography, etch, deposition, CMP, metrology, etc.) to ensure module robustness and seamless integration.
+ Define, discuss and implement process splits in collaboration with unit module, device \& TCAD team. Execute them with requested cycle time seamlessly to meet goals.
+ Analyze interactions between FEOL modules and guide development using inline, electrical and characterization data.
+ Prepare technical reports and present integration status, risks, and mitigation plans to team\-leaders and stakeholders.
+ Daily follow\-up of the lots in progress, flow readiness, with occasional support outside regular working hours for priority lots, taking responsibility for issue resolution, reporting and escalations.

• Technology Transfer:

+ Strengthening the connection between R\&D and the semiconductor industry. Leverage imec’s deep technical expertise to collaborate with customers and set\-up established technology node processes at customer sites.
Module Robustness \& Scalability:

• + best practices to test process windows and margins. Optimize module settings for compatibility and tolerance.

+ Integrate industry\-standard best\-known methods (BKM) to enhance performance and reliability across modules and integrated flows.

• Collaboration \& Communication:

+ Work closely with imec’s advanced research device teams. Share updates and insights with peers, customers, and management.
+ Communicate technical concepts clearly and confidently to team\-leaders, cross department colleagues \& external customers.
+ Occasional on\-site technical discussions at customer location may be required.
