Principal Engineer, Heaters and Electrostatic Chuck (ESC)

This engineering position involves designing and delivering advanced hardware solutions centered on electrostatic chuck and heater assemblies used in semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The engineer will oversee development of both Johnsen-Rahbek and Coulombic-type ESC systems, perform materials qualification for ceramic layers, and create multi-zone heater assemblies with precise temperature control across extreme temperature ranges. The role encompasses thermal modeling, electrical characterization, process integration, and reliability analysis across the full product lifecycle. This position suits experienced semiconductor equipment engineers with deep expertise in materials science, thermal management, and electrostatic clamping who want to drive innovation in next-generation processing technologies.
