“Through a culture of disciplined teams, thoughts and actions over the 20 years, we now see that our flywheel is on. KLA India is creating value with its advanced software and algorithm contributions.”

Supporting Semiconductor Industry Growth

KLA India opened in 2004, evolving today into a center of Innovation.
Then and now: From its earliest days (left), KLA India has contributed to the company’s global engineering R&D team, working with industry-leading technologies and collaborating with customers and industry peers to help move the industry forward.

With India’s semiconductor industry poised to grow through the next decade, KLA’s local application and product engineers have gained deep experience supporting KLA’s hardware, software and algorithms for global customer fabrication facilities.

“Over the last 20 years, KLA India has transformed from small engineering teams into a thriving ecosystem for innovation. I am proud to have been a part of this transformation. It has been a rewarding journey, working alongside some of the best minds to build talent, lead teams and drive success for customers.”

From three sites in Chennai – which includes a state-of-the-art, high-tech research and development center – more than 800 employees work on solutions for customer challenges as technologies become increasingly complex.  Employees development includes challenging, cross-functional assignments; engaging and supporting customers; and participating in innovation hackathons and engineering conferences hosted in India.

“Nineteen years ago, I joined the team as a new college graduate and have had the opportunity to learn, explore and contribute to solving critical customer challenges — helping to deliver products that set industry benchmarks. I am grateful to be part of a company that not only prioritizes customer yield management solutions but also invests to develop its employees so we can better meet customer needs.”
