Embedded Systems Engineer — Equipment Integration (Semiconductor)

About The role

Deploy and integrate Innowave's equipment-connection solution (InnoConnect) at customer semiconductor fabs. Working on-site, you'll survey the tools, analyse their signals and interfaces, and bring integration units live — with firmware and software development supporting the integration effort. It's a hands-on, field-facing role for an engineer who's as comfortable at a customer's tool as at the bench.

What you'll do

• Deploy and commission integration devices and solutions on-site at customer fabs.

• Survey customer equipment — analyse its signals and interfaces and define the integration approach.

• Integrate equipment across factory fieldbus / industrial protocols and the plant network.

• Develop and debug the embedded firmware and software of the InnoConnect product to support the above.

What you'll bring

• Minimum 5 years' relevant experience, plus:

• On-site deployment, commissioning and equipment-survey ability, backed by strong hands-on skills — wiring, assembly, bench bring-up and field troubleshooting.

• The ability to analyse serial (RS-232/RS-485/UART), USB and video signals, and interface with factory equipment.

• Familiarity with factory fieldbus / industrial protocols and plant networking, and the ability to carry an integration through to completion.

• Working knowledge of Docker, Windows and Linux, and CI/CD.

• Familiarity with semiconductor factory equipment (hands-on fab / equipment experience is an advantage).

• A good command of English.

• Embedded programming with C/C++ experience, and familiarity with the InnoConnect product's embedded firmware/software (Python or C# a plus).

Nice to have

• Experience with SECS/GEM or other semiconductor equipment-communication standards.

• Willingness to travel to customer sites and work independently in the field.
