Original job description

Step into a career with ASM, where cutting edge technology meets collaborative culture.

For over 55 years ASM has been ahead of what’s next, at the forefront of innovation and what’s technologically possible. With more than 4,500 ASMers representing 70 nationalities, our people and our advanced semiconductor devices are playing a crucial role in trends such as 5G, cloud computing, AI, and autonomous driving. But we’re more than just a tech company. We value diversity, inclusion and sustainability as we strive to make a positive impact on the world. Our development programs help support your growth, shaping your future and pushing the boundaries of innovation to unleash potential.

We are seeking a highly motivated Systems Engineer II, Plasma to join the Sensor Technology Group. This role combines plasma science, systems engineering, process diagnostics, and technology development to drive innovation and continuous improvement across ASM product platforms.

Job Mission

The Systems Engineer II, Plasma is responsible for the development, characterization, integration, and deployment of plasma-based sensing, diagnostics, and process control technologies across ASM semiconductor manufacturing equipment. This role focuses on understanding plasma behavior, developing diagnostic methodologies, and leveraging process and equipment data to improve process performance, reliability, and product outcomes.

Working closely with Process, Mechanical, Electrical, Software, Firmware, and Manufacturing Engineering teams, this individual will develop experimental strategies, analyze complex datasets, troubleshoot plasma-related challenges, and support the qualification of new technologies from concept through deployment.

What You Will Be Working On

Plasma Systems Engineering

Support development and characterization of plasma-based processes and subsystems across ASM product platforms.
Evaluate plasma behavior, plasma-surface interactions, and process performance under varying operating conditions.
Develop and execute experiments to improve plasma stability, uniformity, repeatability, and process capability.
Support plasma system integration and qualification activities for new products and technology upgrades.
Participate in requirements definition, test planning, and technology validation activities.

Plasma Diagnostics & Characterization

Develop and implement diagnostic methodologies for plasma process characterization.
Utilize plasma diagnostic tools including:
Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES)
RF diagnostics
VI probes
Langmuir probes
Residual Gas Analysis (RGA)
Pressure and flow diagnostics
Temperature monitoring systems
Analyze plasma characteristics and correlate diagnostic measurements with process performance.
Characterize hardware performance and identify opportunities for process optimization.

Data Analysis & Process Optimization

Design experiments and collect, analyze, and interpret complex process and equipment datasets.
Apply statistical methods and engineering analysis techniques to identify process relationships and performance drivers.
Support development of process windows, operating ranges, and optimization strategies.
Generate technical reports and recommendations based on data-driven findings.
Assist in development of monitoring methodologies and key process indicators.

Problem Solving & Root Cause Analysis

Troubleshoot complex plasma-process and hardware-related issues.
Conduct root cause investigations utilizing structured problem-solving methodologies.
Identify failure mechanisms affecting process performance, repeatability, reliability, and yield.
Develop and implement corrective actions for recurring technical issues.
Support field issue investigations and customer escalations as required.

Technology Development

Evaluate new plasma technologies, diagnostic techniques, and process-monitoring solutions.
Support proof-of-concept studies and technology demonstrations.
Collaborate with suppliers and technology partners to assess new capabilities and technologies.
Contribute to future technology roadmaps and product development initiatives.
