OnsiteAt Raytheon, the foundation of everything we do is rooted in our values and a higher calling – to help our nation and allies defend freedoms and deter aggression. We bring the strength of more than 100 years of experience and renowned engineering expertise to meet the needs of today’s mission and stay ahead of tomorrow’s threat. Our team solves tough, meaningful problems that create a safer, more secure world.
An exciting opportunity exists at Raytheon for a Semiconductor Process Development Engineer to join our III-V process development team working on gallium nitride-based devices and III-V focal plane array fabrication within the Advanced Microelectronics Solutions (AMS) Department. This role requires a broad understanding of microelectronics processing techniques such as deposition, etch, photolithography, metrology, and process characterization with expertise in one or more of these areas.
As a member of the AMS Department, the individual in this role will serve as a process development engineer to lead and execute process development efforts, assist in process sustainment, improve product yield, develop new processes and device capabilities, and assist in the creation of new technology discriminators in a III-V semiconductor wafer foundry. The chosen candidate is expected to be an innovative and creative thinker capable of probing issues and reaching solutions both independently and in a team environment. A significant portion of the role involves developing proof of concept demonstrations of novel semiconductor processes, identifying the yield and process improvement opportunities that exist, gathering sponsorship and team resources, and executing on continuous improvement activities. Presence on the foundry floor is essential for improving various processes and quick resolution of technical issues. The role requires a large degree of multitasking with attention to detail while managing priorities depending on the nature of the problems and the commitments to customers or program leads.
What You Will Do
Processing wafers to create FETs, MMICs, and FPAs in a cleanroom environment.
Expected to work well in small, cross-functional teams, assist in pursuing contract R&D, and assist in transitioning processes into production.
May manage small projects or processes within area of responsibility.
Work autonomously with limited oversight.
May provide input or guidance to lower-level professionals with tasks and assignments.
