Job Details: Job Description:

Note: This role requires regular onsite presence to fulfill essential job responsibilities.

As a Substrate Quality and Reliability Engineer you will drive substrate capacity expansion to influence key technology decisions for Intel package and assembly in TD and ramp phases. You will also be responsible to enable qual plans and strategies to meet product milestones and assess key risks to technology development activities at a component level and address product manufacturing challenges at substrate factories for future HVM stability. You will influence supplier process technologies and their interaction with assembly as well as substrate package induced customer facing issues and their validation.

Role and Responsibilities

• Develop, apply, and maintain quality and reliability standards for Substrate packaging components for Test Vehicle and Product.
• Develop the integrated materials/process and technology targets to meet the requirements of product use case requirements and demonstrate maturity milestones.
• Define inspection, screening, and testing mechanism to mitigate yield and reliability risks.
• Determine reliability requirements to achieve reliability objectives.
• Develop reliability models by performing statistical analysis to more accurately categorize reliability risk to customer specification and field risk.
• Deliver standardization in product qualification, manufacturing quality systems, and methods.
• Influence, enable, and continuously engage with packaging technology development and partner engineering teams on process maturity to lower risks.
• Develop new acceleration techniques, analytical tools, and quality screens to ensure the early identification of potential problems with every new technology and process.
• Respond to customer requests or quality events as they occur
• Make proactive recommendations for changes in specification or formulation to improve product quality and reliability.

The ideal candidate should exhibit the following behavioral traits

• Influence cross-functional teams and solve complex technical challenges and deliver robust solutions.
