At our Nashua, NH site, we integrate materials science, packaging engineering, and manufacturing to deliver next‑generation lasers for industrial, medical, and scientific applications.\nWe are seeking a Process Engineer to own and optimize the end‑to‑end laser diode packaging process—from QA and die handling/cleave through die bond, wire bond, capping/seal, and final test—supporting a high‑mix, high‑volume production environment.\nRole Summary\nLead process development, optimization, qualification, and transfer to production for laser diode packaging flows (die prep, attach, wirebond, cap/cover, fiber attach, test).\nEnsure reliability, performance, and manufacturability across multiple product families (including butterfly packages and fiber bonding).\nKey Responsibilities\nPackaging Flow Ownership: Define standards, work instructions, and critical parameters for QA, die handling/break, die bond, wirebond, capping, and test; implement SPC/DOE for robustness and yield.\nRecipe & Equipment Process Development: Develop and maintain per‑equipment recipes (auto die bonders, wire bonders, lid/cap sealers, laser soldering/reflow, fiber attach) tailored to different product requirements; document and version‑control changes.\nEquipment Maintenance & Calibration: Establish calibration schedules, PMs, and verification procedures; keep tools updated and operational; partner with vendors for upgrades.\nContinuous Improvement: Increase efficiency, throughput, and first‑pass yield via cycle‑time reduction, process simplification, and automation; drive data‑driven kaizen initiatives.\nHigh‑Mix/High‑Volume Readiness: Build scalable processes that meet the ongoing demand for many product variants with differing requirements; design flexible fixturing, tooling, and recipes.\nReliability & Qualification: Plan and execute HAST, HTOL, thermal cycling, vibration, and power aging; develop lifetime models (e.g., Weibull/log‑normal), define pass/fail criteria, and own qualification reports.\nFailure Analysis: Lead root‑cause investigations using SEM/EDS/X‑ray, cross‑sections, optical/electrical diagnostics; implement CAPA and feed learnings into design and process updates.\nData Analysis & Automation: Write robust Python code to ingest, process, and model production/test data; build dashboards in Power BI; maintain version‑controlled analysis pipelines; apply DOE/SPC.\nMaterials & Device Physics: Apply semiconductor packaging and laser device fundamentals (III‑nitride, IMC control, thermal management, metallurgy) to interpret performance and guide improvements.\nTooling/Fixtures: Design jigs and fixtures; collaborate with Mechanical Engineering on CAD, tolerances, and manufacturability; validate and release to production.\nElectrical & Controls: Contribute to control/feedback systems, safety interlocks, and driver interfaces; design/review PCBs for test and control where needed; support equipment IO integration.\nEquipment Setup & Refurbishment: Install and qualify new tools (e.g., butterfly line, fiber bonding); refurbish and debug semi‑auto die bond/wirebond equipment as needed; author SOPs and training.\nCross‑Functional Collaboration: Work with design, materials, reliability, manufacturing, and operations teams to align processes with product requirements; support NPI and ramp.\nInstruments & Tools (examples)\nAuto/semi‑auto die bonders and wire bonders; cap/lid seal equipment; fiber attach/bonding stations.\nOvens/reflow/laser soldering; environmental chambers; motion/positioning systems.\nOptical spectrum analyzers, power meters, beam profilers; SMUs, oscilloscopes, LCR meters; X‑ray/SEM/EDS.\nQualifications\nBachelor’s or Master’s in Materials Science, Electrical/Mechanical Engineering, or related field; 5+ years in semiconductor packaging (must‑have), optoelectronics, or power electronics.\nHands‑on experience with auto die bond and wirebond tools; setup, operation, and process recipe development; preferred experience refurbishing semi‑auto tools.\nProven track record in reliability testing (HAST/HTOL) and lifetime modeling; familiarity with IPC/JEDEC reliability standards.\nStrong programming skills in Python and data visualization in Power BI; capable of writing production‑grade code for data processing and statistical analysis (DOE/SPC).\nBackground in electrical engineering and automation (controls/feedback, interlocks, PCB design) is preferred.\nExcellent problem‑solving, communication, and project management; thrives in high‑mix, high‑volume environments.\nLocation\nOn‑site in Nashua, NH, primarily in lab/manufacturing areas; limited travel to vendors/partners.\nCompensation & Benefits\nCompetitive salary commensurate with experience; eligible for annual bonus and equity, as applicable.\nComprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision (with HSA/FSA options), paid life/AD&D, short‑/long‑term disability, paid holidays, vacation/sick time, 401(k) with match, ESPP, tuition reimbursement, EAP, and parental leave.
