Senior Principal Engineer, Process Integration Engineering

About the role

Analog Devices Limerick is hiring a Senior Principal Engineer, Process Integration Engineering, a senior P6 individual contributor role. It sets technical direction for end-to-end process integration across semiconductor manufacturing technologies and provides recognised technical leadership on process flow integration, module interactions, yield improvement, device performance, process robustness, technology transfer and ramp readiness. The role operates with significant autonomy and broad organisational influence.

Key responsibilities

• Set technical direction for process flows, module interactions, integration trade-offs and fab-level priorities across multiple technologies, products or process platforms.
• Lead cross-module yield and performance improvement initiatives, reducing process variation and strengthening long-term process capability.
• Partner with process development, product engineering, manufacturing, quality and global operations to turn new technologies and device requirements into stable, repeatable manufacturing.
• Resolve highly complex integration issues where root cause spans multiple modules, tools, materials or product families, using statistical methods and risk management.
• Use yield, metrology, probe, reliability, defect and process-control data to identify trends, predict risk and define control strategies.
• Influence senior technical and operational stakeholders across integration, equipment engineering, product engineering, quality, manufacturing, R&D and global operations.
• Establish integration standards, control plans, escalation paths, documentation practices and lessons-learned systems.
• Mentor senior engineers and build process integration capability across the organisation.

Required profile

• Bachelor's degree in Electronics, Physics, Materials Science, Chemical, Mechanical or Manufacturing Engineering, or equivalent relevant technical experience.
• Typically 13+ years of progressive experience in semiconductor manufacturing, process integration, process development, technology transfer, yield engineering or manufacturing operations; fewer years may be considered with a relevant master's or doctorate.
• Demonstrated senior technical leadership and a track record of improving yield, quality, reliability, cost, cycle time or ramp performance.
• Experience leading cross-functional resolution of complex integration issues and establishing sustainable control strategies.
• Required travel of about 10% of the time; shift type is 1st shift/days.

Required skills

• Deep understanding of semiconductor process flows, module interactions, device behaviour, yield mechanisms and integration trade-offs.
• Structured root cause analysis, DOE and statistical methods.
• Yield engineering, defect reduction, excursion management, process control, reliability analysis and predictive analytics.
• Strong organisational influence and clear executive-level communication.
