Senior Flip Chip Manufacturing Process Engineer

Job Title

Senior Flip Chip Manufacturing Process Engineer

Role Summary

Hands-on manufacturing process engineer responsible for driving process and procedure improvements for flip chip die attach, reflow, and flux-wash processes in a production environment. Role includes supporting manufacturing ramp, developing automated programs and recipes, implementing statistical monitoring, and leading a small team of process technicians.

Experience Level

Senior — minimum 5 years of relevant experience in flip chip process engineering.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include supporting production, improving yield and efficiency, and leading process implementation activities.

• Support day-to-day manufacturing operations and production ramps for flip chip devices.
• Develop and implement improved manufacturing methods, procedures, and standardized recipes for die attach, reflow, and flux wash processes.
• Create and optimize automated die attach programs and process parameters; document processes in specifications and work instructions.
• Define and evaluate materials for die attach applications (flux, solder paste, bumps, etc.).
• Define and implement statistical and automated monitoring methods for process control and quality assurance.
• Lead root-cause analysis for systematic process or equipment issues and drive corrective actions.
• Execute equipment/process startups and supervised process experiments (SWRs) during product ramp.
• Supervise and lead a team of process technicians.

Requirements

Key must-have skills and preferred qualifications.

• Must-have: Minimum 5 years of hands-on experience in flip chip processes (die attach, reflow, flux wash).
• Must-have: Strong foundation in statistical process control, engineering change control, and process release strategies.
• Must-have: Strong data analysis skills and experience applying data analytics to process problems.
• Must-have: Experience developing die attach programs, recipe standardization, and process documentation.
