Laboratory Service Engineer 3

The Group You’ll Be A Part Of

In the Global Products Group, we are dedicated to excellence in the design and engineering of Lam's etch and deposition products. We drive innovation to ensure our cutting-edge solutions are helping to solve the biggest challenges in the semiconductor industry. 

The Impact You’ll Make

As a Laboratory Service Engineer at Lam, you're a pivotal force in maintaining and upgrading equipment in our applications lab. It’s not the typical lab; you’ll be hands-on with state-of-the-art equipment performing maintenance, troubleshooting, and calibration. You'll support innovative equipment providing installation and documentation, making you an integral part of our technology’s success.

In this role, you will contribute to concept and feasibility hardware to enhance current and develop next generation of semiconductor equipment for our customers.

What You’ll Do

• Operate in an R&D environment performing preventative and corrective maintenance, troubleshooting, upgrades, and calibrations on equipment.
• Diagnose and repair mechanical, electromechanical, electronic, and vacuum equipment.
• Ensure safe handling of hazardous gas and liquid materials using required Personal Protective Equipment.
• Partner with cross-functional teams – including process development, hardware, and software engineering – on R&D activities, customer demos, and supporting equipment.
• Install and provide support for prototype equipment, developing procedures and documentation.
• Maintain alignment on priorities across tasks that vary from dynamic to consistent with clear and proactive communications.
• This position has the potential of advancement into one of our Electrical Engineering teams where you will design, develop, and modify semi-complex to complex electrical and electro-mechanical systems.  Design, test and troubleshoot mixed-signal circuit boards that bridge the sensors and actuators with the high-level system software.  Conduct feasibility studies and testing on new and modified designs.
