The Components Research group delivers innovative semiconductor and packaging technologies research and development. The group focuses on unique, enabling capabilities across all aspects of Intel's semiconductor processing roadmap. Components Research engineers are responsible for leading programs to design, fabricate and analyze novel devices/interconnects/patterning, materials and integration schemes across a wide variety of novel applications.

Job responsibilities include ownership of Components Research project deliverables which you will support through lab tool ownership, process development and coupon-line operational activities aimed at developing rapid prototypes for Intel's most advanced technology nodes. You will participate in one or more Components Research working groups providing regular updates with high quality data related to thin film process development (e.g. Evap, PVD, PLD, ALD or CVD) in order to guide program decisions. Tool ownership will involve assuring tool safety, maintenance, process development and user training & scheduling all while role modelling Intel's cultural attributes. Finally, you may lead projects for tool upgrades, new tool selections and participate in the tool installation or demolition process.
