Semiconductor Equipment Engineer

Our leading Netherlands based start-up is currently searching for a Semiconductor Equipment Engineer to help to rapidly scale manufacturing capability by bringing new tools online and ensuring they operate with exceptional reliability in a fast-paced semiconductor startup environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Tool Installation & Qualification: Lead full installation cycles with OEMs, from planning to production qualification (FAT/SAT, IQ/OQ)
• Tool Ownership & Maintenance: Own preventive maintenance (optimizing schedules, spares) and drive rapid corrective maintenance with root-cause analysis
• Facility Build-Out: Support commissioning of a new, state-of-the-art cleanroom and nanofabrication line
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Process Engineering to align equipment and process needs, co-own tool sourcing/specifications, and manage facility interfaces (gas, vacuum, electrical, cryogenics, etc.)

Required skills for the Semiconductor Equipment Engineer will include:

• Experience: 4+ years of hands-on experience installing, maintaining, and troubleshooting advanced equipment, ideally in commercial cleanrooms
• Technical Skills: Experience with high-vacuum tools (semiconductor nanofab preferred). Knowledge of cryogenic/dilution refrigerator systems is a strong plus
• Background: Relevant technical degree (e.g., instrumentation, experimental physics, electrical engineering, mechatronics)
• Personal Attributes: A systematic problem-solver who is self-driven, team-oriented, and thrives with high ownership and minimal oversight in a time-pressure environment
