Description For Process Engineering Intern - Fall

Atomic Semi is building a small, fast semiconductor fab. They're creating a small team of exceptional, hands-on engineers to make this happen, covering mechanical, electrical, hardware, computer, and process engineering. The company believes in owning the stack from atoms to architecture and is set up with various equipment including 3D printers, microscopes, e-beam writers, and general fabrication equipment.

For the Process Engineering Intern - Fall position, interns will be exposed to end-to-end process development integration work for a CMOS process. This hands-on role involves:

  1. Designing experiments, analyzing data, and consulting theory and research papers to decide next steps.
  2. Hands-on wafer processing, including deposition, etch, lithography, and metrology.
  3. Incremental process improvement, tuning recipes for optimal performance and yield.
  4. Analyzing experimental data and driving next steps.

Required qualifications include:

  • Pursuing a Bachelor's Degree or higher in engineering
  • 1-2 hands-on cleanroom or cleanroom-adjacent experiences
  • Experience with wafer fabrication and metrology tools
  • Strong foundation in theoretical semiconductor knowledge

Familiarity with data processing in languages like Python is a plus.

Atomic Semi offers a competitive intern package comparable to large bay-area hardware engineering companies. They are an equal opportunity employer and comply with U.S. export control regulations.

Founded by Sam Zeloof (known for making chips in his garage) and Jim Keller (a 40-year leader in the semiconductor industry), Atomic Semi is poised to push the limits of technology in semiconductor fabrication.
