Description
We are looking for a (Senior) Data Quality & Automation Engineer to build reliable, scalable data foundations for R&D. You will work with complex semiconductor data (wafer, sample, measurement, process) and help enable digital twins, advanced analytics, and efficient execution by making data trusted, traceable, and automated.
Key responsibilities
• Define and evolve data models for R&D entities
• Design and implement robust data pipelines and automated data quality checks
• Improve traceability and metadata management so data can be understood, trusted, and reused across teams
• Help establish engineering standards for data handling, testing, monitoring, versioning, and documentation
• Support the development of scalable digital twin, analytics, and workflow automation use cases by ensuring data is fit for purpose
• Evaluate, prototype, and decide when to apply AI/ML vs. rule-based approaches in production data pipelines, balancing impact, complexity, and maintainability
What you bring
• University degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Physics, Chemistry or a related field
• Relevant professional experience in building production-grade systems (3-5 years for Middle, 5-8 years for Senior)
• Strong experience in data engineering, backend, and software engineering
• Hands-on skills in Python, SQL, APIs, and data pipelines
• Proven ability to design reliable pipelines and automate validation of complex data
• Strong understanding of data quality, traceability, schema design, and maintainability
• Experience with workflow automation, dashboarding, or integrating engineering data into operational/project processes
• Experience with testing, monitoring, and production-grade engineering practices
• Ability to work in ambiguous environments with imperfect processes and legacy systems
• Strong communication skills in English and German, with the ability to collaborate effectively with engineers, researchers, and project stakeholders
Nice to have
• Experience with semiconductor, manufacturing, lab, metrology, test, or scientific data
• Experience implementing AI/ML pipelines in real production environments
What matters most
You bring a strong data and software quality mindset. You build solutions that are robust, testable, maintainable, and trusted by engineers and project teams.
What Nexperia offers
• Real-world, complex data challenges in semiconductor engineering
• Opportunity to build data-driven and digital twin solutions at scale
• Collaborative, international environment with strong engineering focus
