Job Summary

We are seeking an experienced Hookup Project Engineer to play a key role in delivering turnkey Total Facility Hook-Up solutions for advanced semiconductor wafer fabrication plants.

You will manage and execute the critical last-mile connection of facility utilities (UHP/specialty gases, chemicals, slurries, UPW, vacuum, exhaust/abatement, and related process systems) to production tools, ensuring seamless integration, on-time start-up, and qualification for world-class clients.

This role is central to delivering high-profile semiconductor hook-up projects and supporting Kelington Group’s regional semiconductor initiatives. The selected candidate will be employed by and based with either Kelington’s Singapore or India subsidiary, depending on the candidate’s profile and business requirements, and may be assigned to regional project sites as required.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead or support the full project lifecycle for semiconductor hook-up scopes: tender/proposal support, detailed engineering coordination, planning, procurement, site execution, testing &commissioning (T&C), documentation, and handover.
  • Develop and manage project schedules (critical path),budgets, resource plans, method statements, risk assessments, Inspection &Test Plans (ITPs), and quality plans tailored to high-purity semiconductor systems.
  • Coordinate closely with clients (fab owners), main contractors, tool vendors/OEMs, consultants, subcontractors, and internal teams(engineering, procurement, QA/QC, EHS) to ensure precise alignment of utility tie-in points and flawless tool hook-up.
  • Oversee and ensure high-quality installation of mechanical /process piping systems, including UHP gas delivery, specialty chemical & slurry distribution, vacuum, exhaust, abatement, and ultra-pure water systems — with strict adherence to cleanliness protocols, orbital welding standards, leak testing, particle counting, and contamination control.
  • Manage materials take-off (MTO), procurement of long-lead and specialized components (tubing, fittings, valves, regulators, purifiers, abatement systems, etc.), and vendor performance.
  • Supervise site works with strong focus on clean room discipline, hazardous gas/chemical safety, permit-to-work systems, and full EHS compliance.
  • Lead or actively participate in FAT/SAT, functional/performance testing, purity verification, and commissioning activities that enable tool qualification and fab production ramp-up.
  • Monitor progress against plan, proactively identify and mitigate technical, schedule, cost, and quality risks; provide clear reporting to management and stakeholders.
  • Prepare and review technical documentation includingP&IDs, isometrics, as-built drawings, O&M manuals, and complete hand over packages.
  • Ensure full compliance with client specifications,SEMI/high-purity standards, local regulations, pressure piping codes, and Kelington’s ISO/QHSE requirements.
  • Support business development and tendering efforts for new semiconductor hook-up opportunities regionally.
  • Mentor junior engineers and technicians; drive knowledge transfer and continuous improvement in UHP and semiconductor facility best practices.
  • Travel to regional project sites and be prepared for site-based assignments as project needs require.

Requirements

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering, or a closely related discipline. (Master’s degree or PMP/PRINCE2 certification is an advantage.)
  • Experience: Minimum 4–6 years of relevant project engineering or construction management experience in semiconductor, electronics, or high-tech facility projects. Direct hands-on experience in facility /tool hook-up, UHP/specialty gas systems, chemical delivery systems, or process utilities in wafer fabs is strongly preferred.
  • Solid understanding of semiconductor fab utility systems (bulk & specialty gases, chemicals/slurries, UPW, vacuum, exhaust/abatement) and the hook-up process from base build to tool qualification.
  • Practical knowledge of high-purity piping practices, orbital welding, cleanliness protocols, leak detection, and contamination control.
  • Proven project management skills: scheduling (MSProject or Primavera P6), cost control, risk management, and stakeholder coordination on complex, fast-track projects.
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD; familiarity with Revit /BIM,P&ID, and isometric drawings is highly desirable.
  • Strong technical problem-solving, analytical, and decision-making skills under pressure.
  • Excellent communication, coordination, and client-facing skills; ability to work effectively in multicultural, multi-contractor site environments.
  • Willingness and ability to undertake regional travel, extended site assignments, or temporary project deployment where required. The selected candidate may be appointed under either Kelington’s Singapore or India subsidiary, depending on business and project requirements.
  • Experience on international semiconductor projects is an advantage.
  • Safety certifications (e.g., gas safety, confined space, working at height) and knowledge of relevant codes/standards (SEMI, ASMEB31.3, cleanroom/ISO 14644, local statutory requirements) are preferred.

Preferred Attributes

  • Experience working with or for major semiconductor manufacturers or their contractors.
  • Exposure to large-scale, multi-million-dollar hook-up or process utility projects with long-lead equipment management.
  • Experience on international or regional semiconductor fab projects is an advantage.
  • Additional language skills (e.g. Mandarin) for regional projects.
  • Lean/Six Sigma or other continuous improvement exposure.

What We Offer

  • The opportunity to contribute directly to landmark semiconductor projects with a company that has a proven track record delivering hook-up solutions for leading global fabs.
  • Competitive compensation package commensurate with experience (including performance bonus).
  • Medical benefits, insurance, and other staff welfare schemes.
  • Structured career progression in a rapidly scaling organization with strong focus on talent development, technical excellence, and work-life balance.
  • Exposure to cutting-edge UHP technologies, large EPCprojects, and international best practices.
  • A supportive and professional working environment within Kelington’s Singapore or India subsidiary, with opportunities to collaborate across the Group’s regional operations.
  • Attractive overseas package for project outside of Singapore.
