KLA-Tencor is seeking a senior electrical engineer to develop analog subsystems for an electron microscope based wafer inspection system. Recent experience with detailed analog circuit board design and layout for low noise in a mixed signal environment is required. Must be able to specify and design system interconnections including signal integrity and shielding concerns. Previous experience with complex electromechanical systems, and with low noise, high voltage circuits and systems strongly desired. Candidate must be able to work effectively with PCB layout and assembly vendors to deliver prototype hardware on expedited schedules. Experience with CPLDs or FPGAs using Verilog would be a plus.

This position provides great technical challenges, along with the opportunity to work with project teams comprising experts in the variety of technologies inherent in Scanning Electron Microscope instruments. The successful candidate will create specifications and then creatively use new and existing technology to design electronic subsystems to meet those specifications. Use of rigorous design methodology will ensure that designs are thoroughly tested, well documented and able to meet demanding performance, manufacturability and reliability requirements.
Qualifications
BSEE minimum, MSEE preferred. 10+ years of experience developing commercial electronic products. Fluent with standard electronic design and simulation tools (Orcad, PSpice preferred).
