Process Technician - Cleanroom (f/m/d)

Permanent employee, Full-time · Aachen

About us

We see the semiconductor industry as a realm of possibility. We see opportunity. We see the profound impact that our graphene solutions will have in transforming the industry. We invite you to join us in driving change with our fundamentally human-centered approach, uniting bright minds around a shared vision. The vision is: Prove to everybody that you can make a fundamental change. Prove with your knowledge and skills how things can be done differently. Together, we can change the paradigm of how the world connects

About our technology

The semiconductor industry’s growing demand for more powerful chips with higher bandwidth and lower power finds its solution in our technology. We connect chips to high-throughput, low-delay computing networks. The key lies in harnessing the physical properties of graphene to combine electronic computing with photonic communication, allowing countless chips to interact almost as if they were one. Our graphene photonic innovation increases computing power and efficiency to a new order of magnitude 

In short, we connect chips to create powerful and energy-efficient networks, overcoming connectivity limitations in the semiconductor industry. We deliver the graphene solution

The Role

Black Semiconductor is looking for a dedicated Process Technician – Cleanroom (f/m/d) to support our Process Integration team in advancing our graphene-based semiconductor technology. In this role, you will assist in wet-chemical processes such as graphene patterning and resist stripping in an R&D cleanroom setting

Support inspection and quality checks using optical microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and other metrology tools
Conduct routine maintenance on process tools under supervision, when applicable
Maintain accurate inventory records for chemicals and materials to ensure availability of stock
Support process control and documentation, maintaining detailed records of relevant data
Assist team members in general wet-chemical lab processes during the early stages of onboarding
With time, support the transition to 300 mm manufacturing operations

Your Qualifications

Educational background in physics, chemistry, technology, or a related field; vocational training (Ausbildung) or a Bachelor’s degree preferred
Experience working in a laboratory or cleanroom environment
Familiarity with wet chemistry equipment or wet benches is a strong plus
Prior knowledge of 2D materials or graphene processing is beneficial but not mandatory
High attention to detail and a conscientious approach to technical task
Open, honest, and reliable communication style
Proficiency in English is required; German is a plus but not mandatory
