• Developed novel processes and process flows to create spin-transfer-based MRAM (non-volatile memory) as a BEOL process on outsourced CMOS wafers.• Engaged in a wide variety of process development and integration. • Conceived, launched, and evaluated experiments as part of a process team to take a fabrication process from zero yield to one viable enough to meet business objectives while cutting the cycle time by a factor of 8. • Integrated experiments proposed by others into the standard process flow, making any necessary adjustments across the line. • Coordinated experiments between Test, Design, and Process teams.• Led process development for projects with RIE, IBE, and PECVD.• Used and familiar with EBL and photolithography, CMP, PVD, SEM, AFM, failure analysis (AFM, SEM, FIB EELS).• Performed data analysis for health of line using JMP, DOE, and LabView.
