• Support new product introduction, including early builds, lab validation, and ramp-up to high-volume manufacturing.
• Lead or support first-in-fab Alpha and Beta deployments, including installation, start-up, and qualification.
• Translate field and customer feedback into improvements in equipment design, performance, and reliability.
• Drive improvements in yield, equipment performance, and uptime in demanding semiconductor manufacturing environments.
• Develop and share best practices, technical documentation, and training materials aligned with global standards.
• Collaborate with hardware, software, controls, quality, reliability, and process engineering teams across our global organization.
• Engage directly with customers to understand technical challenges and influence effective solutions.

What we are looking for

• Minimum Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
• Minimum 5 years of experience in field service, technical support, or global product support within the semiconductor industry.
• Experience supporting semiconductor manufacturing equipment and processes.
• Strong system-level troubleshooting and structured problem-solving skills.
• Hands-on engineering capability, with the ability to connect engineering principles to real-world equipment behavior.
• Experience using data analysis and structured problem-solving methods to investigate technical issues.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including experience in customer-facing technical discussions.
• Ability to collaborate effectively across global teams and time zones.
• Willingness to travel internationally ~ 25 to 50% of the time.

What sets you apart

• Experience with deposition, atomic layer deposition (ALD), surface preparation, thermal processing, wet processing, or related semiconductor technologies.
• Experience supporting new product introductions, early product builds, or first-in-fab deployments.
• Experience leading complex root cause investigations and implementing solutions across multiple tools or customer sites.
• Knowledge across multiple equipment disciplines, such as plasma, vacuum, gas delivery, wet chemistry, software, controls, and hardware integration.
• Experience supporting equipment qualification and ramp-up in high-volume manufacturing environments.
• Ability to turn customer and field insights into meaningful product, performance, or reliability improvements.
