About the role
The Mask Metrology group at Intel Mask Operations is looking for an engineer with a background and strong interest in science/engineering to work on nanometer-scale computer vision and metrology applications. This is a great opportunity to work directly with users to develop internal software tools and to have access to millions of images for developing new algorithms and applications in image analysis that will get used in a production environment for mask and semiconductor manufacturing.
In this position, you will develop a deep understanding of image-based measurement tools used in mask manufacturing and other details of the mask manufacturing process. You will use this knowledge to develop software that provides measurements for quality control and process development, and to provide new image analysis capabilities to help improve understanding of the manufacturing process.
Responsibilities
- Learn about image-based metrology tools used for mask manufacturing and lithography process development
- Troubleshoot algorithm/software errors and performance issues
- Maintenance/refactoring of legacy software applications
- Manage tests, review results with stakeholders, and deploy new software versions
- Contribute to user and developer documentation
- Interact with users to define new requirements and implement new analysis capabilities
- Document changes to software running in the production environment and review changes during meetings with internal stakeholders
Requirements
- PhD (or equivalent experience) in computer science, electrical engineering, or related field
- 5+ years’ experience in image processing, computer vision, computational geometry, or graphics
- 5+ years’ experience as a software engineer using C++
- 5+ years of C++ programming skills including experience with design patterns, templates, multi-threading, and large-scale software design
Preferred Qualifications
- Interest in developing tools for engineers and scientists
- Experience developing cross-platform applications in Linux and Windows environments
- Experience using CMake or similar build configuration tools
- Debugging C++ applications using Visual Studio and GDB
- Knowledge of numerical optimization algorithms
- Experience with revision control software such as SVN or GIT
- Experience developing applications using OpenGL or other graphics APIs
- Creation of GUIs using a GUI toolkit such as QT, wxWidgets, or FLTK
- Data acquisition software development, particularly for image-based measurements
- Experience with physics-based graphics, computer vision, or other physical simulation
- Python
