Job Description

SMART Photonics B.V. established in 2012, is an innovative scale-up in photonics at the High Tech Campus in Eindhoven, The Netherlands. We are trusted by the world's leading tech companies, large and small. We are the world's first pure-play foundry for Indium Phosphide photonics semiconductors, collaborating with our customers to turn their designs into the chips we manufacture at our facilities. Indium phosphide chips are proving to be the best choice in many innovative applications ranging from next generation low-power consumption datacentres to “intelligent pills” for medical diagnostics and high-accuracy drug dispense. Integrated photonics also plays an increasingly important role in the aircraft industry, air quality monitoring and ultra-secure cryptography. Are you passionate about high-tech and precision work? Do you have a keen eye for detail and a solid understanding of semiconductor processes? At SMART Photonics, we’re looking for a motivated TMR Technician to strengthen our Test Measurement & Reliability team. About The Role As a Test & Reliability Technician at SMART Photonics, you'll be working in a cutting-edge photonics foundry, independently operating complex test equipment for wafer, bar, and die level testing. Next you are also responsible for the execution of the Reliability tests, means measurements & operating the Reliability test equipment and preparation of the samples. Your day-to-day will involve a variety of testing scenarios, from routine tasks to more complex and less frequent operations, including work with non-standard wafers. Key Responsibilities Operate complex test & reliability equipment based on detailed work instructions and safety procedures. Execute advanced test operations, including reworks and non-standard wafer tests. Prepare Reliability samples, test and execute the tests. Identify and report deviations or equipment incidents according to our escalation procedures (OCAPs). Provide feedback on test deviations to senior technicians or engineers. Perform visual inspections and support SPC (Statistical Process Control) data collection. Drive continuous quality improvements and participate in process documentation and optimization. Collaborate closely with Engineers to align on quality standards. Support special tasks such as 8D measurements and interact with Wafer Operations to ensure smooth batch processing. MBO in a technical direction (e.g., Electronics, Mechatronics, Applied Physics, or similar). 2+ years of hands-on experience in semiconductor processing or test environments is a pre. Strong sense of ownership and attention to detail. Able to work both independently and collaboratively in a high-tech, cleanroom environment.
