Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering
-
Advanced manufacturing is the use of innovative technology to improve products or processes, with the relevant technology being described as "advanced," "innovative," or "cutting edge." Advanced manufacturing industries "increasingly integrate new innovative technologies into both products and processes.
Advanced Manufacturing is planning, managing, and performing the processing of materials into intermediate or final products and related professional and technical support activities such as production planning and control, maintenance and manufacturing/process engineering.
Engineers don’t only dream it – they have a knack for figuring out how to do it by combining ingenuity and advanced technical abilities. Before products can be made, they have to be developed. Engineers are a vital component of the product research and development process, determining how something should perform, and then verifying that it can indeed perform as intended. Video
Mechatronics is a branch of engineering that brings together multiple disciplines—namely, mechanical, electrical, computer, and robotics engineering to connect seemingly disparate stages of design and production processes into a single, streamlined system.
Microelectronics is a subdivision of the field of electronics that deals with very small and microscopic elements to manufacture electronic components. Microelectronics has been rapidly evolving as the most in-demand field of electronics because of the ever-increasing demand for inexpensive and lightweight equipment.
Semiconductors are materials which have a conductivity between conductors (generally metals) and nonconductors or insulators (such as most ceramics). Semiconductors are an essential component of electronic devices, enabling advances in communications, computing, healthcare, military systems, transportation, clean energy, and countless other applications. Video
STEM stands for science, technology, engineering and mathematics and refers to any subjects that fall under these four disciplines. There are also dozens of alternative versions of STEM (including STEAM, STREAM and METALS) but STEM is by far the most widely used.
A far wider range of academic disciplines fall under this description, including aerospace engineering, astronomy, biochemistry, biology, chemical engineering, chemistry, civil engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, mathematics, mechanical engineering, physics, psychology and statistics.
Careers
-
AMHS Equipment Technician
This position repairs and maintains the computer-controlled systems and robotic devices used within industrial and commercial facilities to reduce human intervention and maximize efficiency.
Education and/or experience requirements (for both Equipment & AMHS Equipment) – AS degree in EET, MET, Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology, Mechatronics, or similar/relevant technical field. Will also consider equivalent military experience or experience within a semiconductor environment.
-
Certified Welder
Any welder that is employed by a company that holds an R stamp certificate of authentication.
-
Civil Engineering
Conceive, design, build, supervise, operate, construct and maintain infrastructure projects and systems in the public and private sector, including roads, buildings, airports, tunnels, dams, bridges, and systems for water supply and sewage treatment.
-
CNC (Computer Numerical Control) Machinist
CNC (Computer Numerical Control) Machinists work hands-on with machines such as mills and lathes to create parts out of different raw materials, such as metal or plastic. CNC Machinists not only set up and program the machines, but they also operate the machine to run the parts. CNC Machinists must be able to read blueprints and drawings, use measuring tools such as calipers and micrometers, and write and test programs.
Mechanical Engineers design, test, and oversee the manufacturing of different machines using a combination of physics, math, and materials science. Mechanical Engineers are skilled in mechanics, dynamics, design, and structure analysis. Many Mechanical Engineers utilize computer tools such as computer-aided design (CAD) to design and analyze products.
-
CNC Programmer
Write instructions for CNC machines, where a computer is connected to the mill, along with electrical drives and sensors for a complete system.
-
Equipment Technician
This position performs corrective, preventative, and predictive maintenance tasks on semiconductor tools designed to improve/sustain equipment availability, reliability, and maintainability.
-
Industrial Electrician
Help engineers solve problems affecting manufacturing layout or production. They prepare machinery and equipment plans, design workflows, conduct statistical production studies, and analyze production costs.
-
Machine Technician
Often serve as machinists or mechanical engineering technicians. Machinists fabricate, operate and repair machines and machine tools. This includes setting up machines prior to production as well as monitoring and correcting them as needed.
-
Manufacturing Industrial Engineer
The Manufacturing Industrial Engineer is responsible for engineering data-driven manufacturing systems to optimize and support plant production.
-
Manufacturing Technician
Produce products for the consumer market. They assemble components by hand, add finishing touches to components, and perform quality checks on machine-produced parts.
-
Plant Manager
The Plant Manager is responsible for managing and tracking all manufacturing activity to ensure the company meets production demand while improving the productivity, quality, and efficiency of the manufacturing operation. This role requires an individual who can lead people to develop repeatable and sustainable production systems to meet the company objectives and desired culture.
-
Power Plant Operator
Someone who controls the systems that generate and distribute electric power.
-
Process Technician
This position provides process sustaining support in an automated semiconductor production environment. Area of concentration could be any of the following: Photolithography, Wet Processing, Etch, Thin Films, Diffusion, Implantation, Metrology, and/or Bond & Grind. Responsibilities include performing tool qualifications, process monitoring through SPC, troubleshooting and reacting to process issues, dispositioning material, microscope inspections, and other tasks as requested by the Engineering team.
