For our future fab in Dresden, we are looking for a highly motivated and committed:
Senior Chemical Systems Engineer - Chemical Distribution (m/f/d)
Shape the chemical infrastructure behind one of Europe´s most advanced semiconductor manufacturing facilities.
Join ESMC and become part of a once-in-a-generation greenfield project in Dresden. As a Senior Chemical Systems Engineer (m/f/d), you will take technical ownership of the chemical distribution infrastructure that enables stable semiconductor manufacturing.
Rather than developing chemical products, you will ensure the safe, reliable and uninterrupted supply of specialty chemicals through highly automated distribution systems. Working closely with global engineering teams, technicians and external partners, you will optimize system performance, solve complex technical challenges and help build the operational standards for our new 300 mm semiconductor fab.
- Take technical ownership of our Chemical Distribution Systems (CDS), Gas Distribution Systems (GDS), Slurry Distribution Systems (SDS) and other chemical utility systems that support semiconductor production
- Maintain safe, reliable and uninterrupted operation of critical chemical supply systems while ensuring compliance with environmental, health and safety regulations
- Lead troubleshooting activities, perform Root Cause Analysis (RCA), Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), and implement sustainable corrective actions to improve long-term system reliability
- Identify opportunities to increase system availability, improve operational performance and optimize maintenance strategies through data-driven engineering
- Contribute to the design, construction, commissioning and start-up of new chemical distribution systems and facility upgrades
- Develop and improve preventive maintenance concepts, operating procedures, technical documentation, training materials and engineering standards
- Provide technical guidance to technicians and junior engineers while promoting knowledge sharing across multidisciplinary teams
- Bachelor´s or Master´s degree in Chemical Engineering or a comparable technical discipline
- Several years of experience operating, maintaining or engineering complex chemical process or utility systems within industrial environments
- Experience from one or more of the following industries is highly valued: Semiconductor, Specialty Chemicals, Chemical, Processing, Petrochemical, Pharmaceutical Manufacturing, Industrial Gas, Advanced Manufacturing
- Experience with industrial process plants or chemical utility systems
- Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills
- Experience with commissioning, maintenance or plant operations
- Knowledge of engineering documentation, operating procedures and maintenance strategies
- Fluent German and English skills
- Willingsness to travel to Taiwan for a 3-month technical training program
- Security & Perspective: A permanent employment contract and career advancement opportunities in one of Europe's leading semiconductors fabs.
- Company Pension Plan & Financial Benefits: We support your financial well-being with our robust company pension plan. As an ESMC employee, you also benefit directly from TSMC’s performance through an exclusive Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP).
- Relocation Support for Dresden: Moving for us? We’ll provide you with all the support you will need for your relocation and your start in Dresden.
- Training & Development: Depending on your position, you will gain a deeper understanding of the processes involved in operating complex semiconductor equipment through unique hands-on training at the TSMC Newcomer Training Center, while continuously expanding your knowledge.
- Health & Well-Being: An annual budget for your health and well-being (e.g., for sports classes, massages, or relaxation) helps you stay fit.
- Meals & Transportation: Enjoy a daily meal allowance as well as a subsidized public transportation (e.g., for the Deutschlandticket) in Germany.
