About the Role
As a Nanofabrication Process Engineer you will work on cutting edge technology as OQC continues to build and design the future of quantum processors. You’ll get the chance to work alongside a fantastic team of quantum and Nanofabrication engineers, and gain unique experience in a deep-tech industry.
* Working alongside a highly skilled team to develop and optimise fabrication processes for superconducting quantum device applications, particularly EBL.
* Focusing on maintaining and improving process stability across multiple points in the fabrication cycle; such as lithography, wet/dry etch and metal deposition. This is a process sustaining role in the clean room.
* Performing yield analysis and in-line metrology to assist in device fabrication process optimisation, and present process data to colleagues
* Collaborate with other engineers, technicians and material scientists to develop solutions that benefit device performance and quality
* Ensure to document, implement and maintain cleanroom standards
* Assist and/or lead in the bring-up of new fabrication equipment/capabilities
Required Skills and Experience
o Professional experience working in nanofabrication
o Strong experience in EBL, as well as other techniques such as dry/wet etching, deposition, SEM, and ellipsometry
o Strong wafer-scale fabrication process experience
o Extensive experience in chemical handling and wet processing
o Competence in forming good experimental design and data collection
o Excellent communication, coordination, and documentation
o Ability to identify risk when transitioning new processes to production
o Coordinate with colleagues and possess strong problem solving skills
Research has shown that women are less likely than men to apply for this role if they do not have solid experience in 100% of these areas. Please know that this list is indicative and that we would still love to hear from you even if you feel you only are a 75% match. Skills can be learnt, diversity cannot.
