Job description
Are you passionate about high-tech and precision work? Do you have a keen eye for detail and a solid understanding of semiconductor processes? At SMART Photonics, we’re looking for a motivated Test & measurement Technician to strengthen our Test Operations team.
About the Role
As a Test Technician at SMART Photonics, you’ll be working in a cutting-edge photonics foundry, independently operating complex test equipment for wafer, bar, and die level testing. Your day-to-day will involve a variety of testing scenarios, from routine tasks to more complex and less frequent operations—including work with non-standard wafers.
Key Responsibilities
Independently operate complex test equipment based on detailed work instructions and safety procedures.
Execute both regular and advanced test operations, including reworks and non-standard wafer tests.
Identify and report deviations or equipment incidents according to our escalation procedures (OCAPs).
Provide feedback on test deviations to senior technicians or engineers.
Perform visual inspections and support SPC (Statistical Process Control) data collection.
Analyze technical imperfections and suggest process improvements.
Drive continuous quality improvements and participate in process documentation and optimization.
Collaborate closely with internal engineers to align on quality standards.
Support special tasks such as 8D measurements and interact with Wafer Operations to ensure smooth batch processing.
Qualifications
MBO / bachelor’s degree in a technical direction (e.g., Electronics, Mechatronics, Applied Physics, or similar).
2+ years of hands-on experience in semiconductor processing or test environments.
Familiarity with SPC, 8D problem-solving, FMEA, IPs, and cleanroom protocols.
Strong sense of ownership and attention to detail.
Able to work both independently and collaboratively in a high-tech, cleanroom environment.
For this role, the candidate will work in a 2-shift schedule, 5 days per week.
Located in commuting distance from our office in Eindhoven (NL) – our relocation service is NOT included

Why SMART Photonics?
At SMART Photonics, we’re building the future of photonic chip manufacturing—right in the heart of the Brainport region. You’ll be joining a diverse and growing team at the forefront of innovation, with plenty of opportunities to grow and make an impact.
