Process Engineer QuantWare
Delft, Netherlands
QuantWare is building the world's most powerful quantum processors to solve humanity's greatest challenges. We do this with our unique VIO™ technology, the only QPU architecture that breaks the hardware barriers that have held quantum computing back, unlocking the path to MegaQubit quantum processors.
With VIO, we are paving the way for the hyper-scale quantum computers that will change the world. And delivering on that vision demands people who don't shy away from tackling the hardest challenges of our time. That's where you come in!
We are building a state-of-the-art fabrication facility dedicated to manufacturing quantum processors. As a Process Engineer you will sit at the intersection of R&D and operations, translating cutting-edge quantum device research into repeatable, high-yielding processes.
You will play a central role in two critical phases of the fab ramp-up: (1) transferring processes from the R&D team into the kilofab environment through MES and optimizing them for yield, throughput, and repeatability; and (2) qualifying new capital equipment as it arrives on the fab floor through Site Acceptance Testing (SAT).
What you'll be doing
Tool Qualification & SAT -
Lead or co-lead Site Acceptance Testing (SAT; IQ/OQ/PQ) for incoming process tools (at least for 2 process modules). -
Create SAT criteria in collaboration with equipment engineers and tool vendors; Negotiate test conditions and results sign-off. -
Execute qualification wafer runs, analyze results, and generate formal SAT reports with pass/fail determinations. -
Manage your responsible tool installation timelines together with Facilities and Equipment Engineering to minimize schedule impact. -
Coordinate vendor support during tool bring-up and drive resolution of open issues to baseline release.
Process Transfer & Optimization -
Own the end-to-end transfer of at least 2 process modules (PVD, CVD, ALD, dry...
