Position Summary

Samsung Foundry Product Engineering team serves as the analytical hub that connects the fab process with our end customer product applications.
The team drives new product introductions by checking margin of customer sample and corner lots, verifying new IP, and ensuring successful / on time product qualification. They
lead wafer sort evaluation for Samsung's advanced technology test vehicles to help secure future design wins, establish Failure Analysis workflow, pareto top detractors and work with customer to confirm SCAN and SRAM diagnostic capability with physical failure confirmation. Additionally they
Build yield learning models based on wafer sort or final test data to define root cause and institute countermeasures.
Through these activities, Samsung Foundry Product Engineering aims to ensure robust yield, high quality and efficient testing operations for Samsung's advanced process technologies and its customers.
