Change the world. Love your job.

In your first year with TI, you will participate in the Career Accelerator Program (CAP), which provides professional and technical training and resources to accelerate your ramp into TI, and set you up for long-term career success. Within this program, we also offer function-specific technical training and on-the-job learning opportunities that will encourage you to solve problems through a variety of hands-on, meaningful experiences from your very first day on the job. The TMG Development program is a 12-month program for new college graduates in the TMG organization.

In this role you will be using ToF-SIMS (Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry) tool for characterization of semiconductor devices. Identification and collection of chemical information related to the sample surface including the elemental composition, isotopic ratios, and depth distribution to support process technology development, wafer fab manufacturing, and package technology development is a primary goal. Lead and support surface analysis team by helping to plan, coordinate and execute experiments to characterize the surface science of semiconductor material using various analytical techniques primarily XPS, Auger, FTIR and other chemical analysis techniques like DSIMS, EDX, XRF etc. Individual must be driven, detail oriented, and thorough to manage daily operations while interfacing with customers to provide technical reports that steer results. You are expected to develop new techniques and implement corrective actions to address gaps and issues. AI/ML based data analysis skills is a huge plus. This position also offers a unique opportunity to collaborate with experts in other material characterization areas like TEM, SEM, FIB, scanning probe microscope analysis, surface analysis, and failure analysis in the lab.

Responsibilities include:

+ Lead the surface science characterization utilizing analytical techniques primarily TOFSIMS (IonTOF and PHI), XPS (PHI), Auger (PHI), FTIR (ThermoFisher) and other chemical analysis techniques like DSIMS, EDX, XRF etc.

+ Hands-on sample preparation, including coordination/logistics and technique development for difficult or complex samples.

+ Acquire and analyze data collected, generate comprehensive reports including your data interpretation and summary of your observations to help customers in their decision making

+ Follow all analytical procedures and specs in the lab

+ Be familiar with instrumentation maintenance and capable of troubleshooting if problems arise. Clearly communicate unresolved issues to the vendor service engineers for fast resolution.

+ Coordinate with engineers and customer base to address workload quickly with high quality data.

+ Interact with customers and stakeholders to better understand the background and make recommendations on the technique(s) that provides the best results.

+ Work in a collaborative, team environment interfacing with customer and lab members.
