Ichor Systems designs and manufactures critical fluid-delivery subsystems for semiconductor capital equipment makers. The company employs just over 400 people worldwide, with a modest amount of recent hiring balanced against a slightly higher level of departures. Its staffing levels reflect the labor-intensive nature of precision manufacturing while maintaining a lean corporate structure. Overall headcount is spread across engineering, operations, corporate functions, and a small international footprint.
Engineering and Operations make up the core of Ichor Systems’ talent base, accounting for roughly 130 and 128 employees, respectively—together representing well over half of all staff. Finance & Administration and Sales & Support follow at 34 and 32 employees, providing the back-office and customer-facing capabilities required to support production. The remaining headcount is distributed among smaller or cross-functional groups captured in the “Other” category, which includes around 90 employees performing quality, supply-chain, and specialized technical roles. Several nominal departments such as Healthcare, Real Estate, Legal, and Consulting are either staffed minimally or rely on external partners, as indicated by headcounts of zero.
Ichor Systems’ workforce is concentrated in U.S. technology and manufacturing corridors. Oregon hosts the largest cluster, led by Portland with 77 employees and supplemented by Beaverton’s 14. Texas is another significant hub, with 36 employees in Austin and 14 in Round Rock. California sites in the San Francisco Bay Area and San Jose together employ nearly 60 people, while facilities in St. Cloud, Minnesota and Reno, Nevada add to the domestic footprint. An international presence is maintained in Singapore with a small engineering and service team, and approximately 170 employees operate from other or remote locations, underscoring the company’s distributed operating model.
