The field Product Support (formerly RPS) organization’s primary job role is to engage and support our regional field teams as a next-level escalation support group while helping to provide in-country equipment expertise to help drive equipment troubleshooting, productivity enhancements, and to provide mentorship for account team engineers.

The Impact You’ll Make

As a Regional Product Support Engineer at Lam, you’re the backbone of technical support for field engineers, technicians, and product support personnel in the region. Your expertise is crucial in diagnosing, troubleshooting, repairing, and debugging complex electro-mechanical equipment, computer systems, software, or networked and wireless systems. Your swift action in responding to situations is critical in resolving issues and ensuring satisfaction of Lams valued customers.

What You’ll Do

PS engineers are expected to have a high level of experience in key areas of semiconductor equipment such as hardware and/or process troubleshooting, subsystem engineering, and advanced troubleshooting and decision-making skills.

PS engineers are often relied upon as local technical experts and will often engage in direct communication with customer engineers and management teams to provide updates on difficult tool escalations and productivity enhancements. PS engineers should posses a high level of independence in the day-to-day working environment along with strong public speaking and communication skills to present technical discussions as the escalation single-point-of-contact to the customer, account team, and product group engineering teams.

Developing strong working relationships between account team hardware and process engineers, as well as with Product Group hardware and process engineering teams is a core responsibility for PS. Candidates for PS should posses strong demonstration of all Lam’s core values and be willing and able to work in fab environments with their account teams on escalated problems, non-escalated issues with the goal of avoiding escalations, and to help mentor and provide real-time advice, knowledge, and BKMs to enable our account teams’ success.

PS engineers are also central to Lam’s ability to proliferate new product in the alpha/beta/restricted release phases of product lifecycle with PS engineers playing a key role to rapidly acquire new knowledge on NPI systems and to help proliferate that knowledge amongst the field teams to provide class-leading escalation and equipment support on new system types.
