Laser Process Engineer

Halo Industries has invented a technology to replace a decades-old semiconductor material-slicing process that wastes billions of dollars annually. Halo’s laser-based technology eliminates this waste, delivering improvements in both material cost and performance, while enabling manufacturing advancements in a diverse set of high-growth applications markets, including the automotive, grid infrastructure, telecommunications, and power electronics sectors.

Halo originally spun out of Stanford University in 2014, acquiring a significant A round of VC funding in 2020 following the successful demonstration of the company’s precision material slicing equipment. Halo is now planning its volume manufacturing operations and building a passionate team to meet its next milestone of deploying the company’s first fully integrated production line.

Halo Industries is well-funded, engaged with strategic customers, and staged to achieve rapid operational, revenue, and valuation growth.

As a Laser Process Engineer, you will have the following responsibilities:

• Operate and maintain laser materials processing setups and procedures
• Conduct hands-on experiments to characterize underlying physical effects in novel optical systems
• Use data analysis and simulation to propose design improvements based on experimental results
• Identify causal relationships between observed performance and design parameters
• Interpret empirical data and reconcile it with first principles via analytical and/or numerical simulations
• Summarize and present experimental results to team members
• Work in a team and contribute to the implementation of next-generation industrial semiconductor manufacturing equipment
