Lead Commissioning Engineer (Lead Cx Engineer – Semiconductor Fabs)
Discipline: Mechanical (HVAC) / Mechanical (Process)
Role Overview
The Lead Commissioning Engineer is responsible for hands-on execution and coordination of commissioning activities for semiconductor fabrication facilities across Mechanical (HVAC), Mechanical (Process), and Process systems. The role requires strong multi-disciplinary expertise to ensure seamless integration between facility systems, process tools, and automation, supporting full lifecycle commissioning from installation through ramp-up.
Key Responsibilities Technical Commissioning Execution
Lead commissioning across discipline-specific systems including:
HVAC & Cleanroom Systems: AHUs, MAUs, FFUs, airflow balancing, pressurization, temperature & humidity control
Mechanical Process Systems: Process piping, chemical delivery systems (CDS), exhaust, scrubbers, vacuum systems
Process Systems & Tools: Tool installation, hook-up verification, start-up, and validation
Execute and review:
Commissioning procedures, test scripts, and protocols
FAT/SAT activities
System validation, performance testing, and troubleshooting
Perform discipline-specific testing such as:
Airflow visualization, HEPA filter testing (HVAC)
Pressure/leak testing and flushing (Process Mechanical)
Tool functional and integration testing (Process)
System Integration
Ensure alignment between:
Process tools and facility utilities (UPW, HVAC, gases, exhaust, electrical)
Mechanical systems and process requirements
Automation systems (BMS/MES) and field equipment
Identify and resolve interface issues across HVAC, process piping, and process equipment systems
Support end-to-end system readiness for fab operations
Coordination & Supervision
Coordinate across:
Vendors, OEM tool suppliers, and subcontractors
Mechanical, electrical, process, and controls teams
Support Commissioning Manager with:
Schedule tracking and execution
Issue resolution and risk identification
Progress reporting
Supervise junior engineers, technicians, and site teams
Quality & Compliance
Ensure systems meet:
Cleanroom classifications and environmental controls
Process performance and operational requirements
Safety, EHS, and regulatory standards
Maintain and review:
Commissioning records and test documentation
Turnover packages and as-built verification
Validation and compliance reports
Required Experience & Qualifications Experience
8–15 years of commissioning experience in:
Semiconductor fabrication facilities (preferred) or similar high-tech industries
Experience across multiple systems (HVAC, process piping, and process tools)
Proven exposure to full lifecycle:
Install → Hook-up → Commissioning → Start-up → Ramp support
Technical Skills
Strong working knowledge of:
Cleanroom HVAC systems and environmental control
Process piping, chemical delivery, exhaust and vacuum systems
Semiconductor process tools and utility integration (UPW, gases, CDA, exhaust)
Automation and control systems (BMS/MES interface)
Ability to understand cross-disciplinary system interactions
Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving capability
Education
Degree/Diploma in Mechanical, Chemical, or related Engineering discipline
