Defect Inspection Engineer (f/m/d)

Your Role As a Defect Inspection Engineer/Expert, you will be responsible for ensuring the defect-free quality of semiconductor wafers using Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) systems and unpatterned wafer inspection. You will detect defects such as particles, scratches, haze, and surface roughness that could impact the yield of our integrated graphene photonics process flow.

Working in a cleanroom environment, you will collaborate with process, equipment and integration teams to set up, qualify and optimize inspection recipes, troubleshoot issues, and continuously improve defect detection and classification. What You’ll Do - Perform AOI and unpatterned wafer inspection on materials such as bare silicon, epitaxial layers and polished wafers - Set up, qualify and optimize inspection recipes - Fine-tune inspection tool and recipe parameters to improve defect-detection sensitivity, inspection quality, repeatability and overall performance - Analyze defect data to identify trends, root causes and potential process excursions - Interpret defect data and translate findings into actionable insights for process teams - Generate defect maps, Pareto charts and reports to communicate findings
