Product Reliability Specialist

Job Description

• Overview
• As a key leader within the Product Engineering team, you will spearhead and develop a high-performing team driving both intrinsic and extrinsic reliability test development and execution for our latest products.

Main Responsibilities:

• Reliability Test Flow Development: Define and develop reliability stress, test flows, and test plans to cover all product reliability aspects.
• Reliability Test Plan and Execution: Work closely with the Global Quality team to define qualification plans, review, and manage the qualification execution progress, and drive for qualification gating issue resolution.
• DPM Reduction: Drive down and achieve extrinsic reliability (time 0 and field DPM) and intrinsic reliability through optimized manufacturing test flows and test strategy to meet critical KPIs quality, cost, and cycle time.
• Root Cause and Resolution of Qual and RMA Device Issues: Debug and identify root causes and failures in reliability tests by electric failure analysis (EFA) and physical failure analysis (PFA) and drive for resolution and improvements through cross-functional team collaboration.
• Process Conversions and HVM: Provide recommendations to fab teams for new process conversions to reduce costs, increase yields. This is critical as it directly impacts yield, quality, reliability, and performance of our products, which are key components in many modern technologies.
• Risk Management: Communicate with product managers/leads to manage risks associated with DPM process conversions. This is crucial in ensuring that conversions move at an appropriate pace, balancing the need for innovation with the need for stability and reliability.
• Promotion of Innovation: Promote innovation and drive changes that will provide us with a technical advantage over our competition. This is vital for maintaining our competitive edge in the market.
• Mentorship and Development of Others: Actively develop and mentor others. This is important for growth and development of the team and organization.
• Project Management: Develop project management skills within the team to ensure efficient execution of projects, leading to timely delivery of technological solutions.
• Technical Decision Making: Make final decisions on risk analysis and project prioritization. These decisions directly impact the direction of technological development.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Collaborate with various cross-functional teams such as fab, technology development, design, system development, and quality/reliability teams. This collaboration is vital for holistic development and shipping of end products.

Required Skills and Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree: In electrical and electronics engineering or a related field.
• Coursework or internship experience: In semiconductor devices, circuit design, or product validation.
• Solid understanding: Of problem-solving methodologies, focusing on identifying root causes and exploring solution spaces.
• Familiarity: With CMOS technology, DRAM architecture, and basic device physics.
• Exposure: To data analysis, statistics, and scripting tools such as Python or JMP.
• Strong attention to detail: And commitment to quality.
• Ability: To work effectively in team-based projects, contributing to shared goals and outcomes.
• Flexible and eager to learn: With a willingness to take on diverse roles in a dynamic engineering environment.
• Responsible and accountable: With a professional work ethic and ownership of assigned tasks.
• Clear and effective communication skills: In written and spoken English, especially when articulating technical concepts and findings.

Benefits

• Perform hardware, software, semiconductor design, or telecomm engineering assignments.
