What you'll do
· Prototype AI assistants & agents for field workflows: guided recipe setup, log triage, playbook lookups, parts/alarms advice, and fleet-wide health checks.
· Build retrieval systems (RAG): ingest manuals, specs, ticket notes, recipes, logs, and best-practice docs; design chunking, embeddings, and indexing; tune prompts and retrieval for accuracy/latency.
· Connect AI to our tools and data: stand up MCP servers (Model Context Protocol) and other connectors to safely expose internal systems (document stores, MES, issue trackers, telemetry APIs) to LLMs.
· Fine-tune or adapt models (e.g., LoRA/QLoRA) for domain terms, error codes, and tool-specific intents when retrieval alone isn't enough.
· Evaluate and harden: set up offline & online evals for groundedness/relevance; add guardrails, observability, and traceability; write runbooks.
· Ship small apps: package prototypes behind simple APIs or lightweight UIs that field engineers can use (web chat, Slack/Teams bots, or CLI).
· Data plumbing: parse messy PDFs/images/CSVs; normalize schemas for recipes, events, alarms, SPC/trace data.
· Computer Vision - understanding, defect detection, segmentation, or SEM/optical imaging.
· Work like an engineer: write readable Python/TypeScript, tests, and docs; use Git; participate in code reviews; iterate fast with the AI lead and domain SMEs.
Minimum qualifications
· BS in CS/EE/CE/ME (or equivalent experience).
· Python proficiency (data wrangling, APIs, packaging); comfort on Linux and with Git.
· Built at least one LLM app using a framework such as LangChain, LlamaIndex, or Semantic Kernel.
· Hands-on with vector search (e.g., FAISS/Weaviate/Milvus) and embeddings; understands chunking, metadata, and hybrid search basics.
· Familiarity with RAG and prompt engineering; can measure quality (groundedness/relevance) and reduce hallucinations.
· Basic backend skills (REST/JSON, auth, environment secrets); experience containerizing with Docker.
· Comfortable reading technical manuals/logs and collaborating with non-software teammates.
Nice to haves
· Worked with agent frameworks (LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI) or implemented tool-calling/plan-execute loops.
· Built or configured MCP servers to connect LLMs to internal data/tools.
· Experience parsing complex docs (e.g., Unstructured, GROBID) and handling images/figures from manuals.
· Exposure to semiconductor equipment or factory systems (SECS/GEM, EDA/Interface A, MES, SPC); familiarity with KLA/AMAT/TEL/ASML tool ecosystems.
· Time-series and log analysis (Pandas, SQL, TimescaleDB/InfluxDB), wafer map/vision background, or simple CV.
· Model adaptation experience (LoRA/QLoRA, PEFT) and experiment tracking (MLflow/W&B).
· LLM observability/evals (Ragas, TruLens, LangSmith), basic security/PII handling, and role-based access.
· Cloud familiarity (AWS/Azure/GCP) and lightweight front-ends (React/Next.js) for internal tools.
· Prior work on fleet-level dashboards/analytics or recipe/parameter management.
What success looks like (first 90 days)
· Ship a search+chat knowledge assistant over our internal docs with clear eval dashboards for faithfulness/relevance.
· Stand up at least one MCP connector to an internal source (e.g., SharePoint/Confluence or log store) and demo safe tool calls.
· Deliver a focused POC: e.g., an agent that reads recent alarms & logs to suggest next steps, or a fleet health summary with links to playbooks.
· Document everything (design notes, runbooks, and “how to” guides) and gather field feedback for iteration.
How we work
· Pragmatic, security-minded, iterate-in-the-open with our engineers.
· We value curiosity, clear writing, and the grit to trace weird edge cases in logs and manuals.
Send your resume/GitHub/portfolio and a short note about an LLM or agent project you've built (what made it work, what you measured, and what you'd improve).
