Work History

Senior Process Engineer I

ASM
10.2023 - Current
  • Drove cross-functional team with SW, HW, and product support to develop, troubleshoot, and qualify a First-of-a-Kind (FOK) tool in customer clean-room fab.
  • Developed critical metal thin film processes on a FOK tool to enable novel integration schemes for customer's cutting edge device architectures.
  • Implemented novel characterization method to evaluate process integration performance on customer structures with quick turn-around time.
  • Led failure analysis by designing experiments and characterizing thin films to troubleshoot process module and meet competitive specs.
