Location: Jerusalem
Type: Full-time
Reports To: Process Team Lead
Company Overview
The company is an innovative growth company in the field of silicon photonics packaging, solving one of
the key challenges in enabling next-generation co-packaged optics solutions for AI infrastructure, Data
Centers, and High-Performance Computing. Our multidisciplinary team combines optics, and packaging
expertise to bring cutting-edge technologies from concept to scalable production.
Role Overview
As a Process Engineer, you will be a key driver in optimizing manufacturing performance and ensuring
technical excellence within our production lines. You will bridge the gap between design and high-
volume manufacturing by developing robust processes, enhancing yield, optimizing throughput,
reducing manufacturing costs, and solving complex technical challenges.
You will be responsible for monitoring process stability, implementing control strategies, developing
and implementing process improvements, and resolving equipment and product performance issues.
Additionally, you will be in charge of creating detailed standard operating procedures (SOPs) and
technical documentation and reports.
What You Will Be Doing
Optimize manufacturing processes to improve yield, throughput, and cost efficiency.
Monitor and control process stability using Statistical Process Control (SPC) methodologies.
Design and execute experiments (DOE) to understand process behavior and drive
improvements.
Lead root-cause investigations for process deviations, yield loss, and product failures.
Collaborate with R&D, quality, and production teams to transfer new processes into
manufacturing.
Develop, implement, and maintain process control strategies and best practices.
Troubleshoot equipment and process issues in real time to minimize downtime.
Create and maintain detailed SOPs, technical documentation, and engineering reports.
Analyze complex datasets to identify trends, shifts, and optimization opportunities.
Support global manufacturing sites, vendors, and partners (up to 30% travel).
What We Need To See
M.Sc in Materials Science, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Physics, or a related technical field.
– Ph.D advantage.
5+ years of experience in a process engineering role (semiconductor, chemical, or advanced
manufacturing sectors preferred). - Must
Experience in patterning technologies – Lithography, NIL, Dry Etch, Wet Etch. - Must
Proven ability to implement and manage Statistical Process Control (SPC) and Design of
Experiments (DOE) to maintain high-quality standards.
Proficiency in systematic root-cause analysis tools such as 8D, MBPS, Fishbone, or 5-Why.
Strong capability in interpreting complex datasets to identify trends, shifts, and optimization
opportunities.
High-level verbal and written English skills for documenting technical reports and
communicating with international teams.
Ability to travel up to 30% of the time to support global sites, vendors, or partner facilities.
Experience investigating product failures and identifying process- or material-related defects.
Ability to work in cross-functional and fast-paced environments.
Ways to Stand Out
Experience with JMP and the ability to automate workflows using JSL (JMP Scripting Language).
Proficiency in Python for data manipulation and advanced analytics.
Hands-on experience with microscopy and characterization tools (SEM, TEM, EDS, AFM).
Track record of scaling processes from development to high-volume manufacturing.
Experience conducting deep-dive investigations into product failures to identify material or
process-related defects.
