Would you like to know more about Silex and what we do?

The Area

The Plasma deposition area is one of several vital departments of our production line here at Silex. Several different deposition techniques (PVD, PECVD, ALD and evaporation) are utilized to deposit thin films, ranging from various metals to dielectrics.

You will work with both engineers, process operators and service technicians where collaboration is critical to ensure good process stability, tool uptime and continuous improvement.

The role

Your overall responsibility is to ensure manufacturing goals are met, together with operators and service technicians. Your days will be a mix of meetings with Product Managers, developing new processes that meet customers' specifications and ensure reliable production processes.

You will also participate in creating work routines for operators and solve problems that occur at the area, driving improvement projects to enhance our workflow and processes at the Plasma Deposition area.

In this role, you will:

  • Develop, maintain and improve thin film deposition processes.
  • Establish, and maintain routines and documentation.
  • Handle stopped production batches and development material together with process integration engineers (PIs).
  • Be a part of creating and improving the infrastructure for operator training to make sure current routine is available and up to date.
  • Participate in process qualification of new equipment or materials and release them to production.
  • Participate in the startup of new products, review specifications and process flows.
  • Grow into taking responsibility for area equipment, improving the tool uptime, maintain and develop new standardized process modules.

We are looking for someone who has:

  • A PhD degree in relevant field, or a Master’s degree combined with a couple of years of relevant industrial experience. Specializing in Nanotechnology, Microfabrication, Applied Physics or Material Science is considered as highly beneficial.
  • An understanding of plasma physics or semiconductor processing principles. Hands-on experience with deposition equipment, e.g. PVD, PECVD, ALD and evaporation is considered a merit.
  • The ability to see opportunities for improvement and manage projects to follow through with those improvements.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work effectively in a team environment.
  • Strong skills in documentation and quality management
  • Excellent communication skills in English; proficiency in Swedish is considered a merit.

What we offer you

  • An opportunity to work closely with talented and inspiring colleagues in a collaborative environment.
  • A chance to be part of a world-leading company, driving the future of MEMS technology.
  • The ability to engage with cutting-edge innovations that shape global industries and everyday life.
  • The satisfaction of contributing directly to transformative technologies at the industry’s most advanced pure-play MEMS foundry.
