## The group you'll be a part of Global Product Groups/Global Product Operations/Global Lab Automation. ## The impact you'll make As an Automation Developer at Lam, you will contribute directly to the innovation pipeline by enabling advanced equipment connectivity, data acquisition, and automation capabilities within Lam's Global R D labs across the United States (Fremont, Tualatin), South Korea, Taiwan, and India. You will design and implement
SECS/GEM
‑based equipment interfaces, communication frameworks, and IoT‑enabled solutions that support early‑stage tool development and next-generation process engineering. Working closely with multidisciplinary R D teams, you will build robust automation components that accelerate prototype validation, experiment execution, and system characterization. Your expertise in C#, .NET, and web technologies will help bridge hardware-software interactions, enhance tool diagnostics, and enable deeper insights into complex equipment behavior. Through your work, you will help advance Lam's technology roadmap and contribute to the creation of future semiconductor process platforms. ## What you'll do
- Design, develop, troubleshoot, and debug automation software modules that support tool bring‑up, experimental workflows, and R D diagnostics.
- Implement
SECS/GEM
communication interfaces and IoT connectivity layers for prototype and development-stage equipment.
- Enhance and maintain existing automation frameworks by identifying improvement areas and resolving complex integration issues.
- Produce clear interface specifications, documentation packages, architecture diagrams, and structured code to support global R D users.
- Collaborate with R D engineers, equipment designers, controls engineers, and software architects to develop new automation capabilities.
- Support lab equipment integration activities, including on‑site testing and hands-on validation, with limited travel (
