Development Engineering Technician

Join a team that supports real semiconductor development work in a fast-paced foundry environment. In this role, you will help execute engineering experiments, troubleshoot material issues, and support technology development programs that directly impact customer and internal R&D success.

What you’ll do as a Development Engineering Technician:

• Support development work in real time: Communicate with Development Engineers during days and weekends when ATS material requires attention, helping keep experiments and development activities on schedule.
• Troubleshoot and resolve issues: Assist with the evaluation and disposition of non-conforming material in partnership with engineering teams to maintain development flow and minimize delays.
• Execute engineering experiments: Run standard and advanced experiments through the ATS Technician Request system. Your work will directly support technology validation, process learning, and customer development programs.
• Build broad fab expertise: Develop proficiency across more than 100 semiconductor toolsets and gain cross-functional exposure to major process areas including Photolithography, Etch, Thin Films, CMP, Implant/RTA, and more.
• Create and improve technical documentation: Draft and refine work instructions, process flows, and metrology recipes to improve repeatability, execution quality, and overall experimental success.
• Drive continuous improvement: Identify opportunities to reduce waste, improve efficiency, and enhance process quality in collaboration with operations and engineering teams.
• Grow your independence: Take on increasing responsibility and perform tasks with greater autonomy as your technical knowledge and confidence develop.
• Support team objectives: Perform other duties as needed to support ATS engineering and development priorities.

Required Qualifications:
