3D Development Engineer

Join the 3D team at imec’s R&D headquarters located in the heart of Europe and help in revolutionizing next-generation integrated 3D systems as integration engineer

What you will do

• Your mission as a Development Engineer in the 3D integration team will be to define the integration flows for 3D stacking of devices.
• A wide range of applications (memory-on-memory, logic-on-memory, imager stacking, Low Temperature devices, ...) are the target scope within the 3D program and bilateral projects. You will define the test vehicles related to the specific project(s) you will be integrating.
• As member of the 3D integration team, you are responsible for a streamlined project execution by interacting with your colleague integration/Development Engineers and process assistants but also with the device design, characterization, process development, metrology and defectivity engineers. You will be responsible for defining and implementing the process splits in the process flows.
• You will follow-up on the processing of test material, collect and analyze performance data. You report results both internally as well as to customers. You will be supported in your task by a process assistant, but will be expected to take when required a significant hands on role within the clean room.
• You keep your level of scientific know-how up to date and benchmarks imec’s expertise and performance in your domain with the rest of the world.
• You regularly report to your team leader, program manager, program director or to the customers on progress and results as well as on new opportunities.
• Good communication and interaction within the 3D Technology department as well as with the CMOS technology department and Fab operations unit, is a major requirement for this job.
• You will represent Imec in contacts with third parties and representatives for semiconductor players from around the globe for matters that relate to your field of expertise.
• You need to stay on top of the state of the art within your competence domain and benchmark imec’s solutions
