PIC Process Integration Engineer

PIC Process Integration Engineer

The Photonic Integrated Circuit (PIC) group at Nokia is at the forefront of developing and producing the chips that power our terabit-scale digital optical transport networks. We're looking for a driven and collaborative Process Integration / Fab Start-Up engineer to join our PIC Product Integration Team.

We are seeking a highly motivated and technically skilled engineer to lead the bring-up and qualification of a new Indium Phosphide (InP) photonics semiconductor fabrication facility. This role is critical to establishing high-yield, scalable, and reliable photonic device manufacturing processes in a cutting-edge fab environment. The ideal candidate will have experience with InP or compound semiconductor process development, fab tool qualification, and yield improvement.

Key Responsibilities

• Fab Bring-Up & Equipment Qualification : Support the start-up and drive the qualification of front-end and back-end process tools for InP-based photonic device fabrication. Work closely with process engineers and other internal stakeholders to meet process and equipment milestones.
• Process Development & Integration : Develop and optimize process modules (etch, deposition, lithography, diffusion, metallization, etc.) for InP-based PICs (Photonic Integrated Circuits). Ensure process robustness and repeatability across the full device flow.
• Yield & Reliability Engineering : Establish process monitoring metrics, inline metrology strategies, and SPC to drive yield improvement. Identify root causes of process excursions or device failures; lead corrective actions using FA tools and DOE methodology.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration : Interface with device design, test, and packaging teams to ensure manufacturability and alignment on performance targets.
• Documentation & Technology Transfer : Develop and maintain detailed process documentation, FMEA analyses, and qualification reports. Support the transfer of developed processes from R&D to pilot and volume production.
