Job Description
Do you want to shape the next generation of thin film and coating technologies? As a Process Engineer focused on Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE), you will work on new materials, processes, and technologies for future product platforms. You will combine scientific expertise with industrial implementation and drive the development of innovative thin film processes from feasibility studies through to industrialization.
What you will be doing
- check Advance technology development: you define future process, hardware, and thin film technologies for upcoming product generations
- check Drive research initiatives: you contribute to the long-term technology roadmap through feasibility studies, prototyping, and exploratory research
- check Develop new processes: you design and optimize advanced thin film, material, and deposition technologies.
- check Solve complex technical challenges: you apply physical principles, systematic experimentation, and root cause analysis to develop innovative solutions.
- check Support industrialization: you establish Best Known Methods (BKMs) and collaborate closely with interdisciplinary teams on next-generation deposition platforms.
What you should bring
- check Scientific foundation: you hold a PhD in Materials Science, Physics, Chemical Engineering, or a related field, with experience in Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) and materials development
- check Relevant experience: you bring at least three years of experience in research, development, or advanced process development within the semiconductor, vacuum coating, or high-tech industry
- check MBE expertise: you have solid knowledge of MBE systems, epitaxial crystal growth, growth kinetics, source characterization, and calibration
- check Thin film and process understanding: you understand the physical principles of thin films, plasma processes, and material interactions. Experience with PVD, or a strong interest in developing your expertise in this field, is important for this role
- check Work authorization: you already hold a valid Swiss work permit or have existing authorization to work in Switzerland
