• Entegris is seeking a Lead Scientist with deep chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) and post-CMP cleaning (pCMP) experience to lead the development of advanced slurry and cleaning solutions for semiconductor applications.
• In this role, you will apply broad technical expertise and in-depth knowledge of CMP and pCMP mechanisms to solve complex customer and product-development challenges. You will lead critical technical workstreams, define experimental strategies, and translate structure-performance relationships into differentiated products and process solutions.
• The Lead Scientist will work across global R&D, Applications, Analytical, Manufacturing, Quality, Product Management, Marketing, and customer-facing teams. This position is an experienced technical leadership role and does not require direct people-management responsibility.
• Technical Innovation & Product Development• Lead the formulation and process development of CMP slurries and pCMP cleaning chemistries for advanced semiconductor applications.• Define technical strategy, test plans, decision criteria, and development pathways for complex projects with significant technical ambiguity.• Establish structure-property-performance relationships involving abrasive particles, oxidizers, inhibitors, complexing agents, polymers, surfactants, dispersants, and cleaning additives.• Develop mechanistic understanding of material removal, selectivity, defectivity, corrosion, residue removal, particle contamination, surface condition, and formulation stability.• Design and direct statistically robust experiments, including DOE and multivariate analysis, and integrate wafer, coupon, analytical, and formulation data to guide development decisions.• Lead troubleshooting and root-cause analysis for complex slurry, cleaning, process, equipment, scale-up, and customer-performance issues.
• Product Commercialization & Customer Success• Partner with Applications teams to design and execute CMP and pCMP evaluations on relevant films, substrates, test wafers, and patterned wafers.• Translate customer requirements and device/process trends into product specifications, technical milestones, and differentiated value propositions.• Lead technical reviews and communicate conclusions, risks, and recommendations to senior R&D leaders, cross-functional stakeholders, and customers.• Support raw-material selection, formulation robustness, scale-up, technology transfer, product qualification, and New Product Introduction.• Drive intellectual property creation through invention disclosures, patent support, technical documentation, and protection of proprietary know-how.
• Technical Leadership & Operational Excellence• Provide technical mentorship to scientists, engineers, and technicians and help establish best practices for experimental rigor, data quality, and laboratory execution.• Build productive global networks and influence technical direction across teams without relying on direct authority.• Maintain exemplary EHS, chemical-handling, quality, and documentation practices and actively strengthen a safety-first culture.• Travel up to 30%, including customer sites and global technology or manufacturing locations, based on business needs.
• Ph.D. in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, Polymer Science, Surface Science, or a related field with a minimum of 3 years of relevant experience; OR a Master’s degree with a minimum of 6 years of relevant experience; OR a Bachelor’s degree with a minimum of 8 years of relevant experience; equivalent education and experience may be considered.
• Demonstrated hands-on experience in CMP slurry development, pCMP cleaning development, CMP process development, or closely related semiconductor surface-processing technology.
• Deep understanding of CMP and pCMP fundamentals, including surface chemistry, colloid and interface science, particle behavior, chemical-mechanical interactions, corrosion control, residue removal, and defect mechanisms.
• Proven ability to independently solve complex, multi-variable technical problems and to determine appropriate methods, experiments, and decision criteria.
• Strong record of designing and analyzing statistically rigorous experiments and converting complex datasets into clear technical conclusions and next steps.
• Experience connecting formulation composition and process conditions to removal rate, selectivity, defects, surface quality, cleaning efficiency, and product robustness.
