Twenty years after opening as a small software hub in 2004, KLA India today has evolved into a team of engineers, data scientists and problem-solvers who work to improve the performance of KLA’s process control products and help drive customer success.

“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.”

Prioritizing Chipmaking Challenges and Developing Employees

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.”
