Introduction to the job

In D&E Software system engineering team, we are in charge of the development of the EBI (e-beam inspection) products to meet the requirements form marketing or customer sites. We co-work with US and NL D&E team on the new e-beam inspection products’ development. We also co-work with manufacture, production and field service team to realize the bench or tools to shorten the product lead-time, help on module or system qualification and reduce on the time-cost to trouble-shooting and system recovery.

Role and responsibilitiesLead the technical direction of the e-beam inspection system, including technology selection, architecture design patterns, and toolchain adoption.Provide technical solutions for critical challenges in the inspection process control and lead technical reviews and project evaluations.Design and implement test plans and quality assurance strategies to ensure software stability and performance across different inspection environments and hardware platforms.Support on-site testing and troubleshooting, helping customers resolve technical issues during system deployment / installation. Carry out software development following our process and V-ModelThe scope of this team mainly work with platform HW team in TW/SJ/VHV to design and come out the common design / interfaces that can support X-products.You will need to analysis/understand the HW behavior and bring out the solution to meet the requirements and the performance spec we need.The works will need to integrate the PLC function, SEM controller, stage controller, real-time computing function to have the fully automation for the wafer handling cycle and inspection flow.Need to have machine control knowledge and able to development / maintain the FSM to control the whole system sequenceThe products will be covered NPD (New Product Development) and CIP (Continuous Improvement Project) to meet the requirements from marketing and customers needUtilize OOD and design patterns to formulate modular software systems per specsDesign and perform module unit test, simulation and system integration testsWrite professional design document and test planCarry out performance analysis, troubleshooting and technical support
