Requirements
  • Prefer PhD or MS or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering (preferred focus on Signal Processing).
  • Multi-disciplinary Engineering experience with (medical devices, semiconductors, printing, or other).
  • Experience with analysis sources of noise – Spatial and Temporal.
  • Familiarity with computational tools. In particular, signal processing applied to images is a strong plus.
  • Scripting experience. Preferably in Python and in C
  • Ability to model, simulate and verify against empirical data or in driving empirical validation tests.
  • Multi-disciplinary vision is very critical for this role. The candidate will engage with the subsystem design engineering owners and map the relation of the noise budgets to the impact to the image signal.
  • Doctorate (Academic) Degree and 0 years work experience
  • Master's Degree with 3 years + work experience
  • Bachelor's Level Degree and related work experience of 5 years
Responsibilities
  • Support the design and development of image processing algorithms that factor in physical artifacts affecting an advanced imaging system.
  • Understand the impact from artifacts of optical, mechanical, electronic or other physical origin and how these affect the resulting image based signal.
  • Work closely with multiple functional teams such as the optics, mechanical, electronics, applications and software engineering groups.
  • Guide the software teams in the development of state-of-the-art detection algorithms to image artifact fixing efforts.
  • Lead activities that will optimize sensitivity for one of KLA's most sophisticated inspection systems.
