Meet the complex metrology needs of the semiconductor industry in this customer-facing role at a rapidly growing scale-up.

You thrive on working as an engineer in a customer-facing role at a deeptech scale-up, where interdisciplinary collaboration is crucial. Leveraging your communication skills, you effortlessly interact with customers and colleagues to secure the best possible metrology solutions for each customer’s needs. You are prepared to occasionally work outside office hours, as you’ll be sharing our demo and product development tool. Suffice to say this flexibility is reciprocated, as part of our drive to support your work-life balance.

You also have:

• A PhD or MSc in Physics, Mechatronics, Material Engineering or another relevant subject.

• Experience in developing or using of metrology tools in a manufacturing environment.

• A good understanding of semiconductor manufacturing.

• Experience or a keen interest in atomic force microscopy. Your ability to learn quickly will help you bridge any gaps you may have in your knowledge and skills.

• Experience in coding in MATLAB, Python or other relevant languages for data analysis and visualisation geared to improving communication with clients and colleagues. Experience of algorithm development is a plus.

Nearfield Instruments (NFI) is a fast-growing scale-up high-tech company. We design, develop, integrate, market and service advanced metrology machines. Our machines enables our customers - the world’s leading chipmakers – to increase the production yields, and thus, functionality of their microchips, which in turn leads to smaller, more powerful consumer electronics.

Founded in 2016, we bring together the most creative minds (approx. 320 employees) in science and technology and develop a one-of-a-kind, revolutionary high throughput Scanning Probe Microscopy system.

In your role, you will be bridging the gap between product development, onsite customer application services, and sales. Helping the world’s leading chipmakers stay in control of their manufacturing processes, you will convince them of the capabilities of our cutting-edge atomic force microscopy (AFM) systems, demonstrating them on customer wafers, and contribute to R&D to meet future needs.

Your responsibilities include:

• Identifying our customer’s metrology needs, for which you will work closely with marketing and sales colleagues and attend meetings with customers.

• Demonstrating the capabilities of our products, performing measurements on customer wafers, and analyzing the data generated.

• Reporting and presenting your findings to our customers, showing the unique potential of our systems.

• Creating measurement recipes in the customer fab, working closely with the customer. You will also conduct tests to ensure that specifications are met and train the engineers and operators of our customers.

• Working closely with colleagues in Development & Engineering and R&D to develop new measurement modes and metrology solutions, data processing algorithms, and improve user-friendliness and product performance. You will provide input based on your insights into our customers’ roadmaps, user experiences and needs.
