The Mask Metrology group at Intel Mask Operations is looking for an engineer who has a background and strong interest in science/engineering to work on nanometer-scale computer vision and metrology applications. Responsibilities may include algorithm development and programming for CD-SEM image analysis and other image-based measurements. This a great opportunity to work directly with users to develop internal software tools and to have access to millions of images for developing new algorithms and applications in image analysis that will get used in a production environment for mask and semiconductor manufacturing.
We are looking for someone willing to work relatively independently, helping to define requirements, implementing new features and helping to ensure that the software is reliable by developing and implementing test plans. Because this is a manufacturing facility, you should also be prepared to document any changes to software running in the production environment and review the changes during meetings with internal stakeholders.
In this position you will be expected to develop a deep understanding of image-based measurement tools used in mask manufacturing and other details of the mask manufacturing process and use this knowledge to develop software to provide measurements used for quality control and process development and to provide new image analysis capabilities to help improve understanding of the manufacturing process.
Responsibilities will include the following:
Learn about image-based metrology tools used for mask manufacturing and lithography process development in general
Troubleshoot algorithm/software errors and performance issues
Maintenance/refactoring of legacy software applications
Manage tests, review of results with stakeholders and deployment of new software versions
Contribute to user and developer documentation- Interact with users to define new requirements and implement new analysis capabilities
