  • Provide technical assessment and disposition recommendations for manufacturing lot holds, process deviations, and electrical outliers.
  • Serve as the primary engineering resource for rapid investigation of production issues requiring immediate technical evaluation.
  • Evaluate the impact of process changes, equipment modifications, material changes, and process excursions on device performance and reliability.
  • Develop and execute characterization plans to support process qualification, technology transfers, and continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Correlate wafer sort, package test, reliability, and device characterization data to determine root causes of electrical performance variations.
  • Collaborate with process integration, device engineering, yield engineering, quality, reliability, test engineering, and manufacturing teams to resolve issues and drive corrective actions.
  • Perform statistical analysis using large datasets to identify yield detractors and opportunities for process optimization.
  • Actively monitor and react to key device parameters
  • Generate concise technical reports and communicate findings, risks, and recommendations to management and cross-functional teams.
  • Support reliability investigations and customer-facing quality issues when device characterization expertise is required.
  • Drive implementation of automated data analysis and characterization methodologies to improve engineering response times.

Qualifications
Required Qualifications
  • B.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Semiconductor Engineering, Physics, Materials Science, or a related technical discipline.
  • Minimum 2+ years of experience in semiconductor device engineering, characterization engineering, product engineering, or a related role.
  • Strong understanding of power semiconductor device physics and operation
  • Experience analyzing manufacturing and characterization datasets for device performance assessment and process monitoring.
  • Demonstrated experience evaluating manufacturing excursions through FMEA and making technically sound disposition decisions.
  • Strong understanding of semiconductor fabrication processes and their impact on device electrical performance.
  • Experience with electrical characterization equipment and semiconductor parametric measurement techniques.
  • Knowledge of statistical analysis tools and methodologies.
  • Excellent problem-solving, root-cause analysis, and decision-making skills.
