Laser-based hardware systems for semiconductor materials fabrication
Halo Industries designs and manufactures laser-based equipment for semiconductor fabrication, with a tech stack spanning CAD (AutoCAD, Solidworks), embedded systems (FPGA, EtherCAT), and manufacturing software (PLM, ERP, CMMS). The hiring profile—15 engineers, 2 researchers, and 2 manufacturing staff—reflects a company in the prototype-to-production transition phase, as evidenced by active projects around wafer processing equipment and factory acceptance tests. Pain points cluster around scaling prototypes and reducing waste in semiconductor slicing, aligning with their core value proposition.
Halo Industries, founded in 2014 and based in Santa Clara, CA, develops laser-based hardware systems for materials fabrication in semiconductor manufacturing. The company helps manufacturers reduce waste and improve quality in processes like wafer slicing and processing. Operations span design and prototyping (proof-of-concept labs, electrical system design, operator control systems) and pilot manufacturing at their facility. Current hiring is accelerating across 22 open roles, concentrated in engineering and research, with recent expansion into Malaysia.
Halo uses AutoCAD, Solidworks, and Altium for design; FPGA and EtherCAT for embedded systems; Python, C++, and C# for software; PostgreSQL for data; and PLM, ERP, and CMMS for manufacturing operations.
Current projects include semiconductor capital equipment development, wafer processing equipment design, laser machining experiments, operator control systems for automated equipment, and factory acceptance tests for prototype-to-production transitions.
