(Senior) Process Development Engineer (m/f/d) at Nexperia

As a (Senior) Process Development Engineer (m/f/d), you will play a key role in advancing competitive silicon-based discrete power technologies, driving innovation from process development to industrial manufacturing.

Working in a cross-functional environment with product, production and quality engineering teams, you will develop and industrialize robust wafer fabrication processes that enable cost-efficient, scalable and high-performance semiconductor products.

You will act as a process architect within development projects, translating product requirements into manufacturable process concepts and ensuring successful transfer into stable, automotive-qualified production.

This is your new job

Define and integrate robust, scalable wafer fabrication flows by combining and optimizing unit processes
Own and drive end-to-end process development from concept to stable high-volume manufacturing within cross-functional projects
Ensure manufacturability and industrial readiness, including alignment with production, quality and automotive qualification requirements
Optimize and balance process performance (yield, cost, quality, robustness) to meet competitive product and manufacturing targets
Act as key technical interface between development and production, driving cross-functional alignment and sustainable solutions
Benchmark competitor technologies and derive actionable insights for technology development
Build and leverage expert networks to support technology development and continuously deepen process know-how

This is you

Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics, Semiconductor Physics or a related field
Several years of relevant experience in semiconductor process development are preferred
Solid understanding of semiconductor devices and industrial wafer fabrication processes, preferably for discrete power devices
Hands-on experience in wafer processing and related equipment
Strong analytical skills and ability to solve complex technical problems in a structured and result-oriented way
Ability to work effectively in cross-functional and international teams
Strong sense of ownership and accountability for technical outcomes
Good organizational and planning skills with a structured working style
Fluent in English and German, both written and spoken

This is your department and colleagues

You will be part of a multidisciplinary and international development team working closely with experts from product, process, production and quality engineering.

The team is responsible for developing and industrializing semiconductor technologies from concept to high-volume manufacturing. A strong collaboration with operations ensures that development results are successfully transferred into stable, efficient and scalable production processes.

In this environment, process development engineers take on a central role in bridging product requirements and manufacturing capabilities, ensuring that innovative concepts are translated into robust and competitive production solutions.
