Job Description

OTF (Ocotillo Technology Fabrication) is looking for highly motivated individuals with a strong technical background to play a key role in the continuous improvement of leading-edge semiconductor manufacturing processes. Selected individuals will work in the OTF Yield department and drive improvements in quality, yield, defectivity, reliability, cost, process stability/capability, electrical performance and productivity through data analysis and application of engineering knowledge. The role will include both team-based work, as well as self-driven individual projects.

This OTF's Yield Engineering Internship positions is a Year-Round, on-campus opportunity. Interns who will work part time (15-31 hours/week) during the school year and full time (40 hours/week) in the summer, onsite at the Ocotillo Campus. Hybrid/virtual work schedules are not permitted.

Ideally, candidates must be able to start this position on August 5, attending 2 weeks of onboarding training (full time) and then moving to part time once the school semester starts. Candidates will not work more than 31 hours during the school semester.

Job responsibilities may include, but are not be limited to:

Partnering with a team of engineers to design experiments aimed at continuous improvement activities, which range from yield enhancement, defect reduction, cost reduction, and productivity / output improvement

Performing detailed data analysis using various statistical/data mining tools to identify the root cause of defect/yield/quality issues

Identifying exclusionary or baseline sources of defects and recommending/leading corrective actions/fixes.

Creating quality systems to simultaneously increase productivity and quality output

Ensure the manufacturing process is producing transistor and discrete electronic devices that perform according to strictly defined specifications

Upskill peers on their areas of expertise through sharing forums

Engage in creative problem-solving skills and lateral thinking (the solving of problems by an indirect and creative approach, typically through viewing the problem in a new and unusual light) desired to help deal with the high level of ambiguity that is associated with the problems often encountered in the job role.

The ideal candidate should exhibit the following behavioral traits:

Solid analytical skills and a passion for data analysis and problem solving.

Strong organizational skills with an attention to detail.

Excellent communication and presentation skills to influence a wide variety of groups at all levels

High level of personal integrity with a positive attitude

Willingness to contribute to a team, or take the lead as needed

Qualifications

Minimum qualifications are required to be initially considered for this position. Preferred qualifications are in addition to the minimum requirements and are considered a plus factor in identifying top candidates.

Minimum Qualifications:

Must possess and maintain a minimum GPA of 3.0 for the duration of the internship.

Must be in the 3rd year or higher of Bachelor of Science degree program.

Must maintain full-time student status during internship (minimum 12 credit hours /semester

Preferred Qualifications:

Statistical Data Analysis. Examples include: JMP/JSL, Python, Machine Learning

Knowledge of Design of Experiment DOE principles

Statistical Process Control SPC Theory

Physics of Semiconductor Materials.

Semiconductor fabrication and processing techniques Lithography, Etch, CMP, Thin Films, Plating, etc.

Materials Analysis techniques such as SEM, TEM, EDX, SIMS, XPS, XRD, FTIR or Auger

Programing Experience: Preferred languages include, but are not limited to: Python, C#, JSL.

This position is in Chandler, Arizona at Intel's Ocotillo Facility. Relocation assistance will not be provided.

This position is not eligible for employment-based visa/immigration sponsorship. Intel sponsors individuals for employment-based visas for positions where we experience a shortage of US Workers. These skills shortage roles are typically STEM contributing positions requiring a Masters or PhD degree, or a Bachelor's degree with three years related job experience. This position does not qualify for Intel Sponsorship because it is either 1 a non-STEM contributing position, or 2 a STEM position that only requires a Bachelor's degree and less than three years experience.

Inside this Business Group
As the world's largest chip manufacturer, Intel strives to make every facet of semiconductor manufacturing state-of-the-art -- from semiconductor process development and manufacturing, through yield improvement to packaging, final test and optimization, and world class Supply Chain and facilities support.  Employees in the Technology Development and Manufacturing Group are part of a worldwide network of design, development, manufacturing, and assembly/test facilities, all focused on utilizing the power of Moore’s Law to bring smart, connected devices to every person on Earth.
