Member of Technical Staff (MTS) – Process Development, WET, NAND

Role Summary 

The MTS is a senior technical contributor who drives wet process development through complex experimentation, material/chemical characterization, and integration fixing, while helping establish process technology roadmaps and delivering silicon‑based solutions for future memory needs. Acts as a key contributor expected to deliver measurable results and mentor early‑career engineers aligned to technical leadership expectations. 

Main Responsibilities 

• Lead project‑level initiatives focused on development of wet processes.  

• Carry out complex experiments and support process integration under guidance of senior staff members.  

• Facilitate technology transfer and assist in ramp‑up; maintain accurate records and prepare technical reports.  

• Mentor early‑career staff; participate in multi‑functional problem solving; drive continuous improvement and optimization.  

• Contribute to documentation of guidelines/SOPs and knowledge management; stay current on emerging technologies and wet processing advancements.  

Other Responsibilities  

• Mentor early-career engineers and provide leadership aligned with senior technical expectations.  

• Support continuous improvement and optimization of existing processes.  

• Integrates AI assisted tools and insights into daily work to improve efficiency, quality, or effectiveness, exercising sound judgment and complying with organizational standards and legal requirements. 

• Contributes to a culture of continuous improvement by identifying, testing, and sharing AI enabled enhancements within one’s scope of work.
