We are seeking an experienced Semiconductor Metrology Equipment Engineer to support, maintain, and continuously improve advanced wafer inspection and metrology systems within a semiconductor manufacturing environment. The successful candidate will have a proven track record working with critical inspection tools, ensuring maximum tool uptime, accuracy, and process capability.
This role plays a key part in yield improvement, process control, and sustaining high‑volume manufacturing through expert technical support of metrology platforms.
Key Responsibilities
Provide technical ownership for semiconductor metrology and inspection equipment, ensuring safe, reliable, and compliant operation. Install, qualify, maintain, troubleshoot, and repair metrology systems to minimise downtime and optimise performance. Act as subject matter expert for inspection and surface‑analysis tools, supporting manufacturing, process engineering, and yield teams. Lead fault finding, root cause analysis, and corrective actions across equipment, hardware, software, and process interfaces. Drive continuous improvement activities to enhance tool availability, performance, and data quality. Support equipment upgrades, retrofits, and recipe optimisation in line with process requirements. Work closely with tool vendors for advanced troubleshooting, escalations, and long‑term reliability initiatives. Maintain documentation including maintenance procedures, calibration records, and change control. Participate in Fab support rotations, including on‑call or shift coverage where required. Ensure all work is completed in compliance with semiconductor cleanroom, safety, and quality standards.
