PROFILE:
I am a seasoned, hand’s on engineering professional with extensive experience supporting the Semiconductor, MEMS,
Microelectronics and Thin Film coating industries. I posses a wide range of understanding across various engineering
disciplines, principles, theories, concepts, and techniques, with a consistent history of process improvement. I offer an
in-depth background supporting process development and capital equipment support. I’m an experienced supervisor
with a background managing operations, processes, and personnel, with an emphasis on training and development.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:

Confidential, Systems Engineer Santa Fe Springs, CA 2010 to 2011

  • Supported ICOATs AR optical thin film E-beam coating processes and equipment, in house, and offsite via technology licensing
  • programs. Visited customer sites to support process audits, and perform scheduled, and non-schedule maintenance activities. Analyzed customer data to insure adherence to program requirements. Supported in house development and quality control.

    Confidential, Process Engineer/Shift Manager Baldwin Park, CA 2005 to 2009

  • Supported all aspects of development and manufacturing of advanced MEMS probe cards. Translated lab scale processes into volume manufacturable processes. Supported equipment layout to identify operational deficiencies, studied process flows to reduce rework, created work instructions, process specifications, and training requirements. Trained all technical personal and performed quality audits to insure adherence to all documentation and process procedures through integration, scale up, and process maturity.
  • Integrated, scaled up, and managed performance and quality of pilot production thin-film electro-plating processes. Ni, NiMn,
  • CU, Au, NiFe. Created equipment recipes for production, identified and implemented controls and test procedures, and performed time studies to identify throughput capability, process bottlenecks, and to reduce material usage and waste.

  • Solved complicated process problems by designing and running targeted experiments. Analyzed process, metrology, and test
  • data using SPC methodology to solve ongoing process variables such as interlayer adhesion, stress, and material breakdown.

  • Initiated and executed process and equipment changes to accommodate product design changes and throughput capability.
  • Managed 12 hour rotating shift overseeing 12 employees. Accountable for daily operations, workflows, processes, and personal.
  • Confidential,
    Micro fabrication Engineering Burbank, CA 2001 to 2005

  • Supported prototype and pilot production of advanced technology high performance micro-machines and precision parts using
  • standard MEMS processing techniques. Hands on processing for initial development trails for process characterization and
    capability studies. Identified daily process obstacles and equipment limitations, documented and disseminated applicable reports.

  • Developed and coordinated capital equipment maintenance needs and tool calibrations with outside vendors to identify and
  • control costs and quality issues associated with scaling up. Created applicable maintenance and process documentation.
    Designed and develop simple, yet effective tooling modifications and fixtures to meet and overcome daily development obstacles.

  • Supported electroplating, substrate thinning, and dicing process development activities through hands on processing, data
  • collection and characterization, equipment needs and limitations, training of staff, and complete process documentation.

    Confidential,
    Equipment Engineer Torrance, CA 2000 to 2001

  • Installed and maintained semiconductor capital equipment and related GaAs processes in support of scale up activities.
  • Developed improvements, and/or defined new work methods, instructions, and procedures to maximize efficient utilization of
    equipment and resources, and to minimize non-value added time.

  • Defined maintenance schedules, material requirements, and all associated inventories for all thin film CVD, E-Beam, and evaporation systems to facilitate future growth and control unexpected maintenance costs and down time.
  • Facilitated numerous root cause failure analysis investigations in regards to changes in behavioral trends and midstream/
  • backend process test data to drive continuous equipment and process yield improvements.

    Confidential,
    Equipment Engineer El Segundo, CA 1997 to 2000

  • Supported all facility startup activities from equipment layout to process qualification for Diffusion furnace banks and wet etch chemistry pods. Successfully brought equipment online, identified process operating parameters, characterized and transitioned from development to manufacturing for InP and silicon processes. Supported daily equipment and process maintenance issues.
  • Created equipment supporting documentation, work instructions, process specifications and training requirements.
  • Confidential,
    Engineering Technician Eugene, OR 1996 to 1997
