Description
Ready to launch your engineering career? We're growing rapidly and have multiple openings for talented engineers who want to work with advanced semiconductor technologies and make a real impact from day one.
Join our Semiconductor Assembly Engineering team and take ownership of some of the most critical processes in advanced semiconductor manufacturing. As a Process & Equipment Engineer, you will work directly with state-of-the-art Die Bond and Wire Bond equipment in a high-volume Reel-to-Reel (R2R) production environment, driving yield improvements, equipment performance, and next-generation product introductions.
This is an excellent opportunity for engineers who enjoy hands-on technical work, data analysis, continuous improvement projects, and making a visible impact on manufacturing performance.
What You'll Do
As the technical owner for Die Bond or Wire Bond processes, you will:
- Ensure stable and efficient operation of manufacturing equipment and processes.
- Monitor and improve equipment uptime, Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), yield, and product quality.
- Set up, calibrate, qualify, and optimize production equipment and tooling.
- Troubleshoot process and equipment issues using structured problem-solving methodologies.
- Apply engineering tools such as DOE, FMEA, SPC, and Root Cause Analysis to solve complex manufacturing challenges.
- Analyze manufacturing data, identify trends, and implement improvements using tools such as Excel, Power BI, Spotfire, or similar platforms.
- Lead and support New Product Introduction (NPI), product conversions, and material qualifications.
- Develop and optimize bonding parameters to improve process capability and manufacturing robustness.
- Drive automation, digital controls, recipe management, and poka-yoke solutions to prevent defects and improve reliability.
- Partner closely with Production, Quality, Product Engineering, and Design teams to achieve operational excellence.
- Create technical documentation, SOPs, and troubleshooting guides.
- Train and mentor technicians and operators to build strong technical capability across the production floor.
- Lead continuous improvement projects focused on productivity, cost reduction, and quality enhancement.
What We're Looking For
- Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field.
- 2–3 years of experience in semiconductor backend manufacturing, preferably in Die Bond and/or Wire Bond processes.
- Hands-on experience with equipment setup, troubleshooting, calibration, and process optimization.
- Understanding of yield improvement, process capability (Cpk), and manufacturing KPIs.
- Experience using structured problem-solving tools such as DOE, FMEA, SPC, 8D, or similar methodologies.
- Strong analytical skills and the ability to work with manufacturing data.
- Experience supporting New Product Introduction (NPI) and qualification activities.
- Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
- A proactive mindset, curiosity to learn, and a passion for continuous improvement.
Bonus Points If You Have
- Experience in Reel-to-Reel (R2R) assembly processes.
- Knowledge of Power BI, Spotfire, SQL, Python, or automation tools.
- Experience implementing digital manufacturing controls or Industry 4.0 initiatives.
- Exposure to automotive or high-reliability semiconductor products.
Who Will Thrive in This Role?
You're someone who:
- Loves understanding how machines work and how to make them perform better.
- Enjoys solving technical problems using both data and hands-on investigation.
- Wants ownership and visibility for the projects you deliver.
- Is excited by fast-paced manufacturing environments where every improvement matters.
- Sees challenges as opportunities to innovate.
Why Join Us?
- Work with advanced semiconductor assembly technologies
- Drive real improvements in yield, quality, automation, and productivity
- Gain exposure to New Product Introduction (NPI) and industrialization
- Collaborate with experts across Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, and R&D
- Develop skills in data analytics, process optimization, and Industry 4.0 tools
- Build your career in one of Malaysia's fastest-growing high-tech industries
