  • Conducting process audits.

  • Deploying process improvements – scrap, rework, downtime and productivity.

  • Creating and maintaining documentation and specifications.

  • Liaising with suppliers and subcontractors.

    In an ideal world, my client would like to find someone who possesses an NVQ in Engineering Manufacture (or equivalent) and who has already worked in the role of Process Technician within a fast-moving manufacturing environment. Regardless of previous expertise however, you will be diligent, target orientated and have a keen eye for detail.

    In return, my client is offering an excellent salary of £25,228 - £35,686, plus an excellent benefits package including 25 days holiday per year (plus Bank holidays), subsidised health care, personal accident plan, long service award, bike to work scheme, death in service benefit and a matched pension of 5%.

Shadowing and Mentorship in Semiconductor Careers: Gaining Experience Before Your First Full-Time Role

How to Find Mentors, Build Industry Connections, and Develop the Skills Needed in One of Tech’s Most Essential Sectors The semiconductor industry underpins modern electronics, powering everything from smartphones and automotive systems to data centres and emerging quantum technologies. As device architectures grow more complex and fabrication processes reach ever-smaller nanometer scales, semiconductor professionals stand at the heart of global innovation. Yet, breaking into this field can be challenging for newcomers, who must navigate interdisciplinary demands—encompassing material science, circuit design, process engineering, testing, and more—while also learning to thrive in fast-paced, high-stakes project environments. That’s where shadowing and mentorship come into play. By learning directly from experienced semiconductor professionals—engineers, researchers, or technical project managers—you gain hands-on insights into the realities of chip design, fabrication, and testing that textbooks often can’t convey. This article explores why mentorship is so crucial for aspiring semiconductor specialists, how to find and cultivate mentor relationships, strategies for showcasing your value as a mentee, and effective ways to shadow experts in labs and fabs (fabrication facilities). By the end, you’ll have a clear roadmap to develop the knowledge, confidence, and network essential for launching your first full-time role in the semiconductor world.
