About Syenta
Syenta is pioneering a new era in semiconductor manufacturing with our groundbreaking Localized Electrochemical Manufacturing (LEM) technology. Our manufacturing products build cutting edge advanced packaging for the semiconductor industry by combining patterning and metallization into a single tool. We do that by achieving high-speed, high-resolution metallization at significantly lower costs and energy use, while minimizing emissions and waste.

Founded in Australia, our growing footprint in the US represents a key milestone in our journey. We are building a world-class team where seasoned engineers and ambitious emerging talent collaborate to solve some of the toughest challenges in semiconductor manufacturing.

About the role

You will coordinate day-to-day cleanroom operations in our new semiconductor cleanroom, keeping it safe, clean, organised and consistently controlled. As the first operational contact for internal and external cleanroom users, you will provide practical guidance, coordinate shared resources and services, own Safe Ways of Working, contamination control, and resolve issues proactively and quickly so our process development teams can focus on their R&D; work. We are a growing startup, so this is a broad, hands-on role where you will help establish and improve cleanroom processes as the facility develops.
