About the role

  • These analysis, measurement and control products are essential for gas leak detection in air conditioning/refrigeration and automotive manufacturing.
  • They are vital to equipment manufacturers and end-users in the complex fabrication of semiconductors and thin film coatings for optics, flat panel displays, solar cells and industrial vacuum coating applications.
  • Other users of our vacuum-based processes include the life sciences, research, aerospace, packaging, heat treatment, laser cutting and many other industrial processes.

Responsibilities

  • Apply Design Thinking to frame problems from the customer's perspective before jumping to solutions.
  • Champion an AI-first approach: identify where AI/ML meaningfully improves detection, classification, prediction, and decision support over traditional rule-based methods.
  • Partner with data science and engineering to scope ML use cases, define data requirements, and design for explainability, trust, and operator adoption in a manufacturing setting.
  • Make pragmatic build/buy/partner decisions across the AI stack.
  • Partner with engineering, UX, QA, and DevOps to ship high-quality releases on a predictable cadence.
  • Partner with Sales, Application Engineering, Marketing, and Support to launch features, enable the field, and drive adoption.
  • We are hiring a Senior Software Product Manager to lead the next chapter of growth for our semiconductor software portfolio, with a primary focus on Fault Detection and Classification (FDC).

Requirements

  • 7+ years of product management experience, including 3+ years at a senior level, in B2B software.
  • Demonstrated track record of growing existing products through innovation - not just managing a backlog, but moving the needle on adoption, expansion, and customer outcomes.
  • AI-first product thinking: experience scoping, shipping, and scaling AI/ML-powered capabilities in a B2B software product.
  • Comfort working closely with hardware/firmware/sensor teams and translating physical-world data into software value.

Nice to have

  • Direct experience with the semiconductor manufacturing process (front-end fab operations, process control, equipment data) - Fault Detection and Classification (FDC) experience strongly preferred.
  • Familiarity with industry standards and data ecosystems such as SEMI standards, SECS/GEM, EDA (Interface A), MES integration, and time-series sensor data at scale.
  • Experience launching products that combine on-premise, edge, and cloud deployment models in regulated or high-availability environments.
  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, or a related technical field
  • advanced degree or MBA a plus.
  • A notice describing Federal equal employment opportunity laws is available here to reaffirm this commitment.
  • INFICON, Inc. strictly complies with all aspects of the Export Administration Regulations ('EAR'), including those sections dealing with deemed exports to foreign nationals.

Benefits

  • We also leverage our expertise in vacuum technology to provide unique, toxic chemical analysis products for emergency response, security, and environmental health and safety.
  • Own the vision, strategy, and multi-quarter roadmap for one or more software products in the semiconductor FDC space.
  • Drive growth of existing products through innovative, differentiated capabilities - particularly those enabled by AI and machine learning.
  • Use Lean Startup methods - hypotheses, MVPs, and validated learning - to de-risk bets and accelerate the path from idea to customer value.

Company info
