Engineering Technician 2

Job Summary & Responsibilities

The Cleanroom Technician supports the assembly, testing, and handling of precision semiconductor metrology equipment in a controlled cleanroom environment. This role ensures strict adherence to contamination control standards while executing mechanical, optical, and electro-mechanical processes required to build and qualify high-performance inspection and metrology systems.

• Perform assembly, integration, and inspection of semiconductor metrology tools and subassemblies within ISO-classified cleanroom environments
• Follow detailed work instructions, engineering drawings, and standard operating procedures (SOPs)
• Handle sensitive optical, electronic, and mechanical components using proper cleanroom techniques
• Maintain strict contamination control and cleanliness protocols (gowning, particle control, ESD compliance)
• Support system testing, calibration, and basic troubleshooting activities
• Document process steps, test results, and nonconformance reports accurately in manufacturing systems
• Aid engineers and technicians in process improvements and failure analysis
• Conduct routine preventive maintenance of tools, fixtures, and cleanroom workstations
• Ensure compliance with safety, quality, and regulatory standards
• Participate in continuous improvement initiatives (Lean, 5S, Kaizen)

Qualifications

• Associate degree or technical certification
• 1–3 years of experience in a cleanroom, semiconductor, precision manufacturing, or similar environment
• Familiarity with cleanroom protocols, contamination control, and ESD practices
• Ability to read and follow technical documentation, drawings, and schematics
• Strong attention to detail and manual dexterity for handling delicate components
• Basic computer skills for data entry and documentation (e.g., MES systems, Microsoft Office)

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in semiconductor equipment manufacturing or metrology systems
• Exposure to optical systems, vacuum systems, or precision alignment processes
• Understanding of ISO cleanroom classifications and particle control
• Experience with calibration, test equipment, or diagnostic tools
• Ledger manufacturing or continuous improvement training

Physical Requirements

• Ability to work in a cleanroom environment for extended periods (full gowning required)
• Prolonged standing, fine motor skills, and repetitive tasks
• Ability to lift up to ~25–40 lbs (as required)
• Comfortable working with microscopes or precision visual inspection tools

Key Competencies

• Attention to Detail
• Process Discipline & Compliance
• Team Collaboration
• Problem-Solving
• Quality Focus
• Adaptability in a High-Precision Environment
