Etch Technician 3-5, Equipment Maintenance Careers at Analog Devices in Camas, Washington
Overview
Imagine being at the heart of semiconductor innovation, where your technical expertise keeps cutting-edge etch equipment humming in a state-of-the-art fabrication facility. At Analog Devices in Camas, Washington, our Etch Technician 3-5, Equipment Maintenance role is pivotal to bridging the physical and digital worlds. Analog Devices, a global leader with over $9 billion in FY24 revenue and 24,000 employees worldwide, empowers breakthroughs in digitized factories, mobility, digital healthcare, climate solutions, and connectivity. In Camas, nestled along the Columbia River just minutes from Portland, Oregon, our fab produces semiconductors that drive the Intelligent Edge.
This position demands a seasoned technician with 5+ years in equipment maintenance, ready to tackle complex repairs on etch tools like AMAT Centura DPS/ASP, MxP, Lam 4420, Ulvac Optima, SSEC 3300, and JST Automated Wet Bench. You'll thrive in a 12-hour compressed day shift (7am-7pm, front-half), earning $31-$50 per hour based on experience, plus bonuses, comprehensive benefits, and growth paths. If you excel in fault-finding, schematic reading, gas handling, and high-vacuum systems, join us to stay Ahead of What's Possible™.
Camas, Washington, offers an idyllic setting with mountain views, outdoor recreation, and urban access, making it perfect for tech pros seeking balance. Our team values precision, safety, and collaboration in a cleanroom environment where every repair impacts global innovation.
Day in the Life
Your shift begins at 7am in the bustling etch area of our Camas fab. After donning full PPE—bunny suit, gloves, goggles—you perform daily checks on AMAT Centura tools, verifying vacuum levels, gas flows, and plasma chambers. A fault alarm pings on the Lam 4420; you dive in, tracing schematics to isolate a board-level electrical issue, repairing it swiftly with vendor software diagnostics.
Mid-morning, you swap inert gas cylinders, ensuring zero leaks in hazardous systems, then calibrate high-vacuum pumps on the Ulvac Optima. Lunch in the break room buzzes with team chatter about recent yields. Afternoon brings a JST Wet Bench solvent line clog—you apply chemistry knowledge to safely repair it. You train a junior tech on SSEC 3300 routines, then order spares via our procurement system. By 7pm, equipment is primed for production, and you log everything meticulously. It's demanding—standing 12 hours, navigating tight spaces, enduring cleanroom temps—but rewarding, knowing your work enables ADI's edge tech.
Shifts are compressed for long weekends, fostering Camas' outdoor lifestyle: hiking Lacamas Lake, kayaking the Columbia, or Portland commutes.
Why Camas, Washington
Camas, Washington, is a hidden gem in the Pacific Northwest, blending small-town charm with tech proximity. Just 20 miles from Portland, it boasts pristine parks like Lacamas Lake Regional Park for hiking and fishing, and the Columbia River Gorge for world-class waterfalls and windsurfing.
