Innovation, Efficiency and Ambition: this is what VAT has stood for over 50 years.
With this passion, VAT has grown to become the leading international developer, manufacturer and supplier of high-performance high-end vacuum valves and vacuum sealing technology, employing over 2000 people worldwide. The headquarters are located in Haag (Switzerland), the production centers in Switzerland, Malaysia, Romania and Taiwan.
Our team in Haag, Switzerland is looking for you:
The manufacturing of a high-end microchip requires over 1000 production steps. Vacuum valves are considered to be a critical component as they are in proximity to the semiconductor wafer and have impact on the process performance. Semiconductor fabs like Intel, Samsung or TSMC have increasing expectations to productivity and production yield. These fabs are increasingly using data generated along the manufacturing process to improve production performance. Smart, connected vacuum components are required for smart semiconductor manufacturing fabs enabling predictive maintenance, increasing performance and productivity.
The technological advancements in the semiconductor industry and scaling to nano-meter structures requires high precision and efficient control of the gas pressure in the process chamber. To develop the required control technology, we are looking for an experienced engineer with passion for control theory and system modelling.
YOUR CHALLENGES
* Development of novel and highly differentiated process control algorithms based on nonlinear control & machine learning methods for fast processes using VAT’s existing gas delivery and process control technology
* Technical project leadership: Definition and alignment on specifications with key stake holders, concept creation, development and testing in rapid prototyping system and functional verification using the final products
* Develop, perform and document experiments (DoE) including results in organized and structured way
* Cooperate among cross-functional teams of experts within VAT R&D organization and external technology partners
* Occasional on-site support of newly developed applications/products at customer site.
YOUR COMPETENCIES
* Engineering Degree (MSc or PhD) in mechanical or electrical engineering, control engineering, mechatronics or similar
* 3+ years’ experience in developing advanced control algorithms for industrial applications and their modelling using Matlab Simulink is necessary
* Practical experience with deploying control systems on actual hardware is also required
* Practical experience with C/C++ coding is desired
* Knowhow in fluid dynamics and vacuum systems is advantageous
* Hands on, systematic approach, creative thinker with problem solving skills and team spirit
