Postgraduate Integration Engineer

At Nexperia Manchester, we are expanding our Semiconductor Process Engineering organisation with a unique opportunity for a highly capable postgraduate to join our world‑class high‑volume manufacturing fab. This role is not just a job, it is a structured, multi‑year development pathway designed to turn exceptional academic talent into industry‑ready process owners.

You will work at the centre of innovation, contributing to new platforms, technologies and manufacturing improvements in a fab that contributes to the production of over 100 billion devices every year. Your work will directly influence product performance, yield, and the future of Nexperia’ s technology roadmap.

PLEASE NOTE, WE CAN ONLY CONSIDER APPLICANTS WHO HAVE THE RIGHT TO WORK IN THE UK AND WILL NOT CURRENTLY, OR IN THE FUTURE, REQUIRE VISA SPONSORSHIP

As a Postgraduate Integration Engineer, you will follow a structured development journey aligned to our internal graduate framework over a two-year period including:

Phase 1: Foundation & Fab Readiness - You will become fab‑ready through training in cleanroom behaviour, device physics, statistical process control fundamentals, and structured problem solving, ensuring you are safe, credible and ready to contribute

Phase 2: Structured Rotations - You will begin in a dedicated technology area before progressing into a structured six‑month introduction. You will then rotate through major process areas, Lithography, Etch, Deposition, Diffusion and Integration, each with clear learning objectives to guide your development. These rotations deepen your understanding of core process principles, include a deliverable Six Sigma project, and build the system‑level thinking needed for long‑term specialisation.
