Life at Intel At Intel's Logic Technology Development (LTD) we have continued to extend Moore's law to be world leaders in computing technology. To achieve the necessary scaling of our semiconductor manufacturing process, we have led the industry in developing enhancements such as strained silicon for carrier transport enhancement, high-k metal gates, and FINFETs. LTD has been at the center of every new development that has kept Moore's Law moving forward. Defect Metrology plays a key role in the development of every new silicon process development. Our analysis builds the plan that allows LTD to take a technology from the research phase to the high-volume manufacturing phase while maintaining high quality standards. In MIE, we engineer world-class yields on D1 processes by driving defects down to Best in Class targets. As a Defect Metrology engineer, you will be responsible for identifying all the defects that impact yield and performance in an advanced silicon process technology. You will characterize the process using cutting-edge metrology tools. With this characterization, you will be responsible for creating the defect reduction roadmap. You will then work directly with modules and integration to drive that roadmap by developing and qualifying process fixes. This role provides an opportunity to influence Intel's future process technologies that will keep Moore's Law moving forward. An ideal candidate should be willing to demonstrate the below behavioral traits: Strong data analysis and problem debug skills. Excellent communication skills. Willingness to confidently present complex material to decision makers at all levels of the organization. Understand and adhere to key Intel values
