We are seeking a highly skilled Product Engineer 5 to lead advanced manufacturing technology development and supplier execution for critical components used in semiconductor capital equipment.

Lam Research continues to thrive to meet the customers needs of ever shrinking device dimensions. High performance chamber components are at the forefront of these needs and Lam is continually improving performance of these components. Understanding performance of these components of Lam process tools requires a multidisciplinary background, incorporating elements of materials science, physics, mechanical and electrical engineering, to fully characterize the implications of design or manufacturing changes on customer processing.

• This role is responsible for ensuring that suppliers can consistently manufacture parts that meet Lam's design intent, quality requirements, and delivery needs.
• This role owns the technical execution at the supplier, including supplier qualification, process readiness, quality performance, and issue resolution across NPI and highvolume manufacturing.
• The position serves as a technical authority ensuring manufacturability, quality, and performance while ensuring establishment of quality systems and sustaining quality excellence at suppliers.
• This role focuses on application of advanced manufacturing technologies including machining, joining, coatings, fabrication, welding, and advanced materials including metal, ceramic, thin & thick film coatings (e.g. thermal spray, CVD) to successfully product release (NPI) to high volume manufacturing (HVM) of key process chamber components.

• BS degree in engineering disciplines in Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, or Chemical Engineering with 12 years of related exerience; or 8 years with a Master's degree, or Ph.D with 5 years of experience.
• Demonstrated experience with product development, supplier engagement, customer support experience with capital equipment or similar industries comprising electro-mechanical systems of high complexity
• Hands on experience in process development, manufacturing engineering or product development in high tech industry
• Advanced manufacturing expertise in areas such as welding (TIG/MIG, laser), brazing, and bonding processes, coating including thermal spray, anodization, PVD/CVD.
• Working knowledge of SPC, DOE, FMEA, FA, RCCA, 8D & 5-Whys Problem solving
• Strong analytical, project management, and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively across global and cross-functional teams.
• Ability and willingness to travel domestically and internationally (approximately 15-25%).

• Experience in semiconductor or high-tech manufacturing.
• Hands on experience in managing suppliers in product development and volume production to improve quality, yield, delivery, and process stability
• Experience designing, specifying, building, operating, or maintaining semiconductor process equipment
• Experience in precision component fabrication & manufacturing technologies of metals and ceramics, including casting, forming, sintering, machining, grinding, polishing, surface treatment.

We believe it is important for every person to feel valued, included, and empowered to achieve their full potential. By bringing unique individuals and viewpoints together, we achieve extraordinary results.
