Software Engineering Intern

Summer Software Engineering Intern

KLA is a global leader in diversified electronics for the semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem. Virtually every electronic device in the world is produced using our technologies. No laptop, smartphone, wearable device, voice-controlled gadget, flexible screen, VR device or smart car would have made it into your hands without us. KLA invents systems and solutions for the manufacturing of wafers and reticles, integrated circuits, packaging, printed circuit boards and flat panel displays. The innovative ideas and devices that are advancing humanity all begin with inspiration, research and development. KLA focuses more than average on innovation and we invest 15% of sales back into R&D. Our expert teams of physicists, engineers, data scientists and problem-solvers work together with the world's leading technology providers to accelerate the delivery of tomorrow's electronic devices. Life here is exciting and our teams thrive on tackling really hard problems. There is never a dull moment with us.

With over 40 years of semiconductor process control experience, chipmakers around the globe rely on KLA to ensure that their fabs ramp next-generation devices to volume production quickly and cost-effectively. Enabling the movement towards advanced chip design, KLA's Global Products Group (GPG), which is responsible for creating all of KLA's metrology and inspection products, is looking for the best and the brightest research scientist, software engineers, application development engineers, and senior product technology process engineers. The Broadband Plasma Division (BBP) provides market-leading patterned wafer optical inspection systems for leading-edge IC manufacturing. Logic, foundry, and memory customers depend on BBP products to detect yield-critical defects for process debug and excursion monitoring at advanced process nodes. BBP flagship products include the 29xx and 39xx series which leverage Broadband Plasma technology to capture a wide range of defects with ultimate sensitivity at the optical inspection speeds needed for inline defect monitoring.

As a summer software engineering intern, you'll have the opportunity to make a real impact by working on our next-generation analysis platform. Your role will cover the entire software development life cycle—from collaborating on requirements and designing innovative solutions, to building new features with the latest web technologies. You'll use Angular to create intuitive and robust user interfaces, and contribute by developing custom widgets and web components with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. On the backend, you'll gain hands-on experience with C# and .NET Core to build scalable services, and design RESTful APIs that seamlessly connect the backend to the UI. Throughout the internship, you'll be involved in every stage of development, including data storage design, UI development, testing, and deployment—giving you a comprehensive understanding of modern software engineering practices and a chance to bring your ideas to life in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.
