Description
Diamond Foundry Inc. is solving the thermal limitation at the foundation of today's most exciting tech industries -- AI & cloud compute, electric-car power electronics, and 5G/6G wireless. We have managed to produce the world's first single-crystal diamond wafers and are now on a mission to put a diamond behind every chip. We are the rare unicorn that has grown fast and profitably. We received $515m in funding and are executing a multi-$B expansion plan for one of the greenest forms of tech manufacturing: converting greenhouse gas into diamond wafers using zero-emission energy.

We are looking for an ambitious and hands-on engineer to take responsibility for investigating unique manufacturing processes and technologies that will help us make our world leading diamond production technology even better. You'll be an integral part of an experienced team of mechanical, electrical, and materials engineers, and will be encouraged to gain experience in a variety of techniques and areas.

Responsibilities:

  • Personally prepare and set up experiments (gather, analyze, interpret, and synthesize experimental data, recommend course of action). 
  • Operate plasma CVD manufacturing equipment (get trained on CVD reactor operation, develop process parameter experience).
  • Monitor & iteratively improve prototype processes, guiding process implementation into production (learn to leverage statistical analysis and BI reporting tools to provide data driven feedback).
  • Work across multidisciplinary teams to attack challenges ranging from demonstration of capability to production deployment.

Requirements:

  • PhD or Bachelor's degree with 4+ years of relevant experiences in Physics, Chem. Engineering, Material Science, or Engineering from a top university (comprehensive knowledge of crystal growth and structure of carbon materials is a plus).
