PERSOL; Bayan Lepas; On-site; MYR 180,000 - 240,000; Full time

Job summary

Jora Malaysia is seeking an experienced engineer to advance Optical Interposer yield and performance through data-driven defect analysis and cross-functional collaboration with fabrication partners.

You will lead failure analysis, define corrective actions, and document lessons learned, applying DMAIC, regression analysis, and tools like JMP; a strong physics background and Python scripting are a plus.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree with at least 5 years in a process integration role specializing in yield improvement.
• Strong foundation in semiconductor physics and engineering fundamentals.
• Proficiency in statistical analysis tools such as JMP.
• Experience with Python programming for data analysis and automation.
• Lean Six Sigma certification is an added advantage.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop Optical Interposer products with a focus on yield and performance optimization.
• Lead yield improvement and defect reduction initiatives across optical engine designs.
• Conduct data analysis, problem characterization, and root-cause fault isolation for yield-related issues using commonality analysis, regression analysis, and systematic DMAIC problem-solving approaches.
• Define and document failure modes, material impact, and fallout percentages to support corrective actions.
• Monitor, track, organize, and present yield data from fabrication partners.
• Implement checklists, guidelines, and 'lessons learned' documentation to support ongoing yield-improvement activities.
• Perform yield correlation and failure-analysis work (electrical, optical, physical) and support additional engineering tasks as assigned.
