Jobs at Applied Materials

The role involves developing commodity strategies, managing supplier agreements, resolving supply chain issues, and presenting cost reduction opportunities.

As a Fab Production Control Engineer, you'll be responsible for managing customer orders, inventory, coordinating with manufacturing and engineering, and analyzing production data to improve productivity and quality.

The Senior Equipment Engineer will ensure optimal performance of wafer fabrication equipment, lead equipment qualification, troubleshoot issues, and drive productivity improvements while supporting new product introductions.

The Failure Analysis and Reliability Engineer conducts failure analysis, reliability tests, and develops capabilities to enhance detection and optimize processes, while supporting audits and training staff.

The Yield Defect Engineer leads yield development efforts for semiconductor devices, focusing on process optimization, data analysis, and collaboration with design and manufacturing teams to eliminate yield limiters and establish robust processes.

As a Customer Engineer, you will install, maintain, and upgrade semiconductor equipment, perform diagnostics on systems, and train junior staff while communicating effectively with clients.

The Principal/Senior Reliability Engineer will develop reliability test strategies, manage the Reliability Lab, support technology transfer, and influence product robustness across teams.

Manage production and inventory planning using SAP/MRP: release and reschedule work orders, reconcile supply/demand, handle ECO/ECR disposition, resolve WIP issues, and support shop floor control. Perform inventory analysis, forecasting, and obsolescence management. Drive process control activities and cycle counting. Lead data analysis and visualization projects using Tableau and perform statistical/data-mining with Python or SQL to convert data into actionable plans.

The Customer Engineer Manager manages customer relationships, oversees engineers, ensures effective problem-solving, and handles financial forecasting and system installations.

As a Customer Engineer, you will install, maintain, and upgrade equipment for customers while performing preventative and corrective maintenance. You'll troubleshoot technical issues using digital analytics and provide exceptional customer service in a collaborative environment.

Provide remote and on-site technical escalations and root-cause analysis for DDP (CVD) equipment. Coach field service engineers, develop troubleshooting guides and tools, support NPI and fleet performance improvements, and collaborate with BU engineers to resolve complex equipment and on-wafer issues.

Lead and manage operational and construction/capital project audits and investigations end-to-end. Oversee audit planning, fieldwork, findings, remediation tracking, and fraud risk assessments. Mentor audit teams, maintain AuditBoard/Optro documentation, engage stakeholders and senior leadership, and improve audit methods and templates.

Lead and execute operational audits, advisory engagements, and ethics & compliance investigations end-to-end. Plan audit scopes, design tests, document workpapers in AuditBoard/Optro, and identify control gaps. Drive remediation to closure, liaise with stakeholders, and provide subject-matter expertise in trade compliance and related risks.

Lead NAND process support engineering: drive process integration across etch, deposition, CMP and patterning; resolve yield/defect issues; interface with strategic customers; oversee installations, qualification, process optimization, and cross-functional product and roadmap alignment while building team capability.

Work under engineering guidance to collect and analyze data from complex experiments for degas, preclean and PVD chambers. Optimize processes, measure film properties, organize reports, perform hardware characterization within safety guidelines, troubleshoot moderately complex issues, conduct root cause analysis, and resolve process engineering problems.

Provide on-site customer support and troubleshooting for semiconductor equipment, develop and optimize CMP and other process flows, design and analyze experiments (DOE), perform root-cause analysis, compile technical reports, and mentor junior staff while liaising between customers and R&D teams.

Design and maintain manufacturing methods, processes, and operating sequences for parts and assemblies. Coordinate product improvements, apply DFx to reduce cost and improve quality, set time standards, develop test procedures, perform root-cause analysis and PFMEA, and recommend tooling and process changes.

Lead design, implementation, and support of global supply chain applications (SAP MM and non‑SAP), architect cross‑functional processes and integrations, manage projects and budgets, ensure system stability/SLA performance, drive SOX compliance and IT governance, and modernize platforms using automation, analytics, and AI.

Lead logistics analytics and program management for Asia: monitor spend, generate KPI reports, analyze trends, ensure inventory control, design process improvements, liaise with service suppliers, and produce business cases to improve service levels and reduce costs.

Lead global hazardous materials transportation and storage projects, drive system enhancements and process alignment, manage KPIs and corrective actions, ensure regulatory compliance and audit readiness (SDS, shipping papers), coordinate with outsourced logistics providers, develop cost and demand forecasts, lead investigations and root-cause actions, and coach/supervise logistics staff to reduce risk and costs.
