Precision silicon components for semiconductor manufacturing equipment
Silfex manufactures precision silicon components for semiconductor tool makers and fabs. The tech stack reveals a manufacturing-first operation: CNC machining (5-axis), Azure cloud infrastructure, and ERP/Plex for production control, with recent infrastructure-as-code adoption (Ansible, Terraform). Active hiring leans heavily manufacturing (27 roles) over engineering (12), and projects center on equipment design, CNC programming, and rapid prototyping—typical of a contract manufacturer scaling production capacity while modernizing backend systems.
