Résumé du poste

Samtec, Inc. in Mechanicsburg, PA, seeks an experienced PCB fabrication engineer to own vendor interfaces, stackups, and DFM for high-speed interconnect boards.

You will drive qualification of new fabrication partners, evaluate design packages for manufacturability, and collaborate with SI engineers, designers, and fabricators to ensure on-time, correct board builds. Ideal candidates have 7–12 years in PCB fabrication or related fields, deep knowledge of HDI/UHDI, lamination, and impedance

Qualifications

• BS in Electrical Engineering, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical field.
• MS preferred.

Responsabilités

• Own the technical interface between signal integrity engineers, PCB designers, and external PCB fabrication suppliers across the applicable process flows.
• Create and maintain vendor-agnostic stackups and the stackup database; document impedance, material, and construction rationale.
• Evaluate design packages for manufacturability ahead of release; identify construction, yield, and cost risk and propose alternatives that hold design intent.
• Resolve fabricator DFM findings and technical questions within design intent; route questions with a recommendation and a response date.
• Review fabricator-returned data, including Gerber overlays, and confirm design intent before authorizing build.
• Build and maintain a supplier capability matrix covering qualified capability, in-process qualification, material availability, and known gaps.
• Lead qualification of new fabrication suppliers, new supplier sites, and new processes using a defined test vehicle and evidence.
• Qualify advanced fabrication technologies and materials (HDI, UHDI, SLP) ahead of program need and with SI cooperation.
• Forecast long-lead material and convert supplier lead-time reality into schedule commitments.
