About the role
As a Wet Etch Module Development Engineer, you will operate at the intersection of fundamental chemical kinetics, interfacial surface science, and high-volume manufacturing engineering. You will pioneer atomic-layer selective etching, nanoscale surface cleans, supercritical and surface-tension-engineered drying, wet chemical formulations, and advanced single-wafer wet tool architectures to define the future of global computing. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Hands-on experience with advanced thin-film, surface, and chemical characterization techniques (e.g., Ellipsometry, AFM, SEM/TEM, XPS, contact angle goniometry, FTIR, TXRF, or ICP-MS)
- Experience with automated fluidic systems, wet processing instrumentation design, single-wafer spin hardware, or experimental fluid dynamics/mass-transfer troubleshooting
- Demonstrated experience utilizing Python, MATLAB, JMP, or Machine Learning for design of experiments (DOE), multivariate statistical analysis, or process automation
- Strong publication record, conference presentations, or filed patent applications demonstrating systematic problem-solving in experimental chemical and materials science
