Job description

As a Facilities Infrastructure Engineer at Terafab, you will design and commission the physical environment for 2nm-class chip manufacturing, focusing on critical utility systems and environmental control. This role involves leading the design process, managing large capital projects, and ensuring compliance with safety standards in a greenfield semiconductor factory build.

Requirements

  • Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent experience
  • 8+ years of semiconductor facility engineering experience, including cleanroom design and construction
  • Deep expertise in at least two critical utility areas: UPW, process gases, HVAC/ECS, chemical distribution, or exhaust/abatement
  • Experience managing large capital projects ($100M+) from concept through commissioning
  • Familiarity with SMIF/FOUP-based automation and overhead transport (OHT) infrastructure requirements
  • Strong understanding of vibration isolation requirements for advanced lithography tools (EUV-class)
  • Experience with a greenfield fab build at 300mm
  • Familiarity with SEMI S2/S8 safety standards and AHJ requirements in Texas
  • Experience with BIM tools (Revit, Navisworks) for facility coordination
  • Background in sustainability and energy efficiency for large-scale manufacturing facilities

Responsibilities

  • Lead design and specification of fab environments and infrastructure, challenging industry norms to achieve the fastest and best overall outcome
  • Own technical scope for critical utility systems: UPW, process gases, chemical distribution, exhaust treatment, and waste systems
  • Partner with construction management and equipment vendors to develop and execute facility build plans
  • Establish environmental monitoring systems including AMC, vibration, temperature, humidity, and particle counts
  • Define commissioning and qualification protocols (IQ/OQ/PQ) for all critical facility systems
  • Develop facility capacity models to support tool installation schedules and production ramp planning
  • Drive risk identification and mitigation for facility-level single points of failure
  • Coordinate permitting, EHS compliance, and regulatory requirements with local and state agencies

Benefits

  • Employees at Tesla are often offered day-one coverage with multiple medical options (some at $0 paycheck cost), dental/vision, company HSA contributions, a 401(k) match, and equity programs. Most roles also include paid time off and holidays, family-building support, employee assistance, commuter and childcare benefits, and access to discounts and wellness programs.
