Roles in Semiconductors

6 Roles

Process Engineer

Architect of the manufacturing ecosystem. Process Engineers design and optimize the automated 'factories' that turn raw materials into high-precision products at global scale.

IC Design Engineer

Architect of the silicon foundation. IC Design Engineers design the microchips that power artificial intelligence and the next generation of computing at the absolute limits of physics.

Embedded Software Engineer

Firmware architect for the physical world. Embedded Engineers breathe life into hardware, designing the low-level real-time systems that power everything from satellites to surgical robots.

Electrical Engineer

Nervous system architect for modern tech. Electrical Engineers design the circuits, power delivery, and signal paths that enable every digital experience.

Data Analyst

Translator of numbers into narrative. Data Analysts serve as the strategic bridge between raw data silios and executive decision-making, ensuring every business move is backed by empirical truth.

Computer Vision Engineer

Vision architect for the physical world. CV Engineers give machines the gift of sight, architecting the algorithms that allow software to perceive and interact with reality in real-time.
