Portland Technology Development (PTD) Module Engineers are responsible for leading scientific research enabling manufacture of innovative device architectures coupled with the realization of these architectures.

Job responsibilities will include but will not be limited to:

• Designing, executing and analyzing experiments necessary to meet engineering specifications for their process.
• Participate in development of intellectual property.
• Development of the equipment necessary to exploit the understanding gained in research (in collaboration with equipment suppliers).
• Work effectively with the equipment supplier to identify shortcomings, propose and evaluate hardware modification to mitigate issues.
• Operate manufacturing line in order to integrate the many individual steps necessary for the manufacture of complex microprocessors.
• Insitu ramp to manufacturing volumes to demonstrate the technology meets requirements while simultaneously transferring the technology to counterparts in manufacturing via the Copy Exactly Methodology.
• Install and qualify manufacturing capacity at the development site and audit installation/qualification and supervise first full loop at the production site.
• Must hold a PhD.
