PVD Process Engineer

As a PVD Process Engineer, you will be responsible for supervising and optimizing technological processes related to the production of photovoltaic cells using the CIGS (Copper-Indium-Gallium-Selenide) method. Your tasks will include both launching modern production systems and monitoring the quality and parameters of processes related to the application of thin-film CIGS coatings, which are key in the production of photovoltaic cells.

Dedicated responsibilities:

• Participation in the launch of a high-vacuum system for deposition of CIGS layers using the PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) method,
• Supervision of the CIGS layer application process and ongoing analysis of production process parameters,
• Monitoring, controlling and optimizing process parameters during production in order to maintain the highest quality of manufactured cells,
• Conducting pilot implementations of new processes on production lines,
• Ensuring continuous monitoring of the status of system devices, identifying potential problems and solving them,
• Operation of system peripheral devices, such as: devices for measuring layer thickness using optical and/or contact methods, XRF (X-Ray Fluorescence) measurements, temperature measurements using a pyrometer, operation of a leak-tester,
• Close cooperation with technicians and operators to ensure continuity and efficiency of production processes,
• Regular reporting of quality results and system status to appropriate departments,
• Searching for new technological solutions and innovations in the CIGS process,
• Continuous development of the process and system, cooperation with other engineering and production departments of the company in order to introduce technological improvements.

Our requirements:

• Higher technical education (physics, chemistry, materials engineering, optoelectronics, process engineering or related),
• Practical knowledge of vacuum technology and vacuum systems,
• Knowledge of issues related to the deposition of thin films,
• Knowledge of the basics of photovoltaics and technologies related to the production of photovoltaic cells is desirable,
• Knowledge of thin layer characterization techniques preferred
• Very good communication and work organization,
• Ability to work in a team, as well as demonstrate initiative and responsibility in carrying out assigned tasks,
• English at a communicative level, enabling reading technical documentation and cooperation with an international team.

We offer:

• Work in the innovative and developing photovoltaics industry,
• Opportunity for professional development and participation in highly advanced technological projects,
• Attractive employment conditions and training programs,
• Cooperation with an experienced team of engineers and specialists,

If you are a person with a passion for technology and photovoltaics, we invite you to apply for the position of CIGS Process Engineer in our company.
