ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
As a metrology engineer, you will be responsible for developing and implementing precise, robust, and high‐throughput solutions to control high volume manufacturing of complex, three dimensional thin film magnetic read/write head structures.  Examples of projects include developing spectroscopic ellipsometer models to measure thin film thickness and index of refraction, creating recipes for atomic force microscopes, and analyzing x-ray fluorescence spectra.  To accomplish this objective, you will need to collaborate closely with process engineering teams that support wafer manufacturing operations.
• Work independently with minimal supervision in the Manufacturing Metrology group to
• Develop, document, optimize, and sustain automated inspection recipes and process control solutions
• Develop and refine technical methods/processes to identify root causes of operational issues, process inefficiencies, and measurement deviations.
• Establish accurate baseline measurements and qualification of metrology solutions by collaborating with cross-functional teams across the fab
• Deploy robust metrology system calibration and correlation strategies
• Identify and resolve equipment issues, collaborating with equipment engineering teams and tool vendors to ensure optimal tool performance.
• Cross-train within Metrology Engineering to ensure seamless support coverage across teams.
• Partner with engineering and quality teams to analyze real-time metrology data, identify process deviations, and implement automated corrective strategies to improve yield and reduce cycle time.
• Summarize, document, and present results to technical and executive audiences to drive data-driven improvements.
• Communicate effectively with both management and shop floor.
• Display comfort and skill in presenting issues/findings.
