• Work collaboratively across New Product Introduction (NPI), Yield Engineering, and Product Quality to support product development.
• Investigate complex technical issues and translate data analysis into actionable engineering conclusions.

Requirements

• Proven experience in the semiconductor industry, particularly in Product Engineering, Test Engineering, Yield Engineering, Data Analytics, or Quality Engineering, covering NPI to high-volume production.
• Strong analytical skills in semiconductor manufacturing and test data to identify trends, correlations, yield loss mechanisms, and improvement opportunities.
• Experience in wafer fabrication, including process integration, yield enhancement, defect reduction, and process variation data analysis.
• Familiarity with IC assembly processes, including package design, assembly quality control, and yield engineering.
• Knowledge of fabless semiconductor processes, including IC product qualification and reliability analysis.
• Proficient in analyzing WAT, WS/CP, and FT datasets, with the ability to correlate data across manufacturing and testing stages.
• Excellent skills in data mining, statistical analysis, and root-cause investigation, capable of deriving clear engineering conclusions from complex datasets.
• Experience with semiconductor industry data analysis tools such as yieldHUB, Spotfire, JMP, or similar.
• Ability to create automated analyses, dashboards, and repeatable workflows for engineering investigations.
• Familiarity with statistical methods applied to semiconductor manufacturing data, including SPC, Cp/Cpk, and hypothesis testing.
• Strong communication skills for presenting analytical findings through visualizations, reports, and presentations.
• Self-motivated and flexible, able to manage multiple analyses and investigations simultaneously.
• Willingness to travel internationally as required.

Benefits

• Competitive salary that reflects experience and the specialized nature of the role.
• Equity options to share in the company’s value creation.
• Comprehensive benefits package including Private Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance.
