Singapore A*STAR - Agency for Science, Technology and Research Full time

Overview Scientist (Heterogeneous Integration), IME The Heterogeneous Integration Department at the Institute of Microelectronics (IME) is seeking a passionate and skilled Principal Scientist to join our team. This role is pivotal in advancing state-of-the-art chip-to-wafer and wafer-to-wafer hybrid bonding processes, developing cutting-edge fabrication techniques for 2.5D and 3D packaging applications, and conducting electrical and reliability characterisation. The position provides an exciting opportunity to contribute to groundbreaking technologies and collaborate with a dynamic team of researchers and external stakeholders. Responsibilities Collaborate with senior staff, process integrators, and external partners to address technology roadmaps, process capability requirements, and business challenges. Lead high-impact projects with manageable risks and mentor less experienced colleagues. Conceive and plan projects involving new materials, advanced process integration approaches, and innovative concepts. Research and develop advanced packaging technology such as flip-chip and hybrid bonding techniques for 2.5D and 3D IC applications. Investigate and refine wafer bonding processes for interposer fabrication, inter-dielectric gap fill, and alignment accuracy, addressing factors such as warpage, bonding strength, and yield. Optimise die bonding processes, including the selection of low-temperature organic and inorganic bonding materials, surface preparation, and bonding methods. Conduct engineering experiments for process characterisation to drive quality and yield improvements. Perform reliability characterisation of hybrid-bonded packages to ensure robustness and long-term performance. Act as a subject matter expert (SME) for internal and external stakeholders, providing guidance and expertise. Inspire and mentor talents in semiconductor technology, contributing to workforce development in the field. Work with minimal supervision and be a team player. Qualifications and Skills Educational Background: PhD in Materials Science and Engineering, Mechanical or Chemical Engineering, Electronics, Electrical and Computer Engineering, or a related field. Experience: 0 to 5 years of experience in microelectronic devices, circuits, and hybrid component integration, 2.5D/3D heterogeneous integration applications. Technical Expertise: Knowledge in hybrid bonding or flip chip bonding is a plus. Knowledge: Strong knowledge of hybrid bonding equipment technologies and bonding materials and methodologies, and reliability characterisation is preferable. Skills: Strong analytical and problem-solving skills. Proficiency in data analysis and interpretation and design of experiments. Excellent written and verbal communication abilities. Teamwork: Ability to work collaboratively in a research-oriented environment (OEMs, customers, and internal stakeholders). Demonstrated ability to manage multiple tasks and projects simultaneously. Demonstrated expertise in heterogeneous integration, hybrid bonding, and advanced packaging processes. Proven ability to troubleshoot and resolve process-related challenges. For further inquiries or additional information, please contact our HR. We look forward to receiving your application and exploring the potential for you to join our innovative team. #J-18808-Ljbffr
