Research Engineer II (Semiconductor Fabrication (Heterogeneous Integrated Photonics))

Nanyang Technological University • Singapore, Singapore • Posted July 19, 2026

Position Overview

National Centre for Advanced Integrated Photonics (NCAIP) is a Mid-Sized Centre funded by the National Research Foundation. The key objective is to support efforts to develop new photonics technologies that can be translated to the semiconductor industry.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Fabricate integrated photonic devices end-to-end in a shared cleanroom across the group's semiconductor-laser, RF-photonics and heterogeneous-integration projects, including wet cleaning, wafer cleaving/dicing and facet preparation.

  • Run core process modules: e-beam/DUV/i-line lithography and ICP-RIE/RIE etch; PECVD/LPCVD, sputtering, ALD and e-beam deposition, lift-off, metallization and annealing — with CD control under the Center Director's direction.

  • Perform heterogeneous integration and bonding (plasma-activated/adhesive/eutectic wafer-die bonding, substrate thinning/CMP, advanced packaging).

    • Requirements:

  • Master's degree (MSc/MEng) in Elec...
