Crystal Growth Engineer

In this role, you will work closely with experienced engineers and technicians to operate crystal growth equipment, analyze process data, improve process performance, and support the transfer of new technologies from research and development into manufacturing.

Requirements

• Support the execution and continuous improvement of existing crystal growth processes while working closely with technicians and operations staff.
• Participate in the development of scaled-up processes while working closely with engineering leads.
• Assist with the construction, operation, and troubleshooting of high-temperature crystal growth equipment.
• Perform data analysis to support Lean manufacturing initiatives, including updating work instructions and identifying opportunities for process improvement.
• Participate in the transfer of new crystal growth processes from R&D into production.
• Apply statistical process control (SPC) tools to monitor and improve manufacturing processes.
• Develop a working knowledge of material quality metrics to support routine production troubleshooting, including failure analysis, root cause determination, and implementation of corrective actions.
• Identify and track process deviations to understand their impact on yield, reliability, and product quality.
