More about the role
In addition to the responsibilities under
The Role tab, your primary responsibilities will include:
- Sustaining – Yield analysis and failure mode analysis on a given product. RMA/failure analysis and root cause investigation. Commonality studies across process steps and impact to product performance/yield.
- Yield analysis/improvement – be able to identify major failure modes on a given product, track them across lots/wafers. Identify root cause of failures and generation and implementation of improvement plan.
- RMA/failure analysis – be able to take a given RMA from applications team/customer and lead FA efforts to find root cause. Implement the corrective action and perform FMEA.
- Commonality studies – Commonality studies between the different wafers/lots/products to improve product performance or yield.
- New Product Introduction – Be able to take a product from design to production. Identify testability and production viability.
- Generate characterization plan and qualification plan. Design hardware and implement software needed to perform a full product qualification.
- Perform GRnR studies to validate test setups.
- Perform characterization testing over temperature and bias corners, i.e. s-par, harmonics, IP3, parametric
- Analyze characterization results and Implement guard banding of key parameters.
- Manage reliability HW and SW development, for various rel. test, i.e. HTOL, HAST, ESD.
- Measurement Instruments – Comfortable with Oscilloscopes, VNA, Spectrum Analyzers, Power Device Analyzers (parametric analyzers), custom rack and stack measurement systems, pulsed current tests, ESD testing, etc.
Secondary responsibilities will include:
- Hardware debugging in collaboration with the applications engineering team to ensure healthy device functionality.
- Sourcing and acquiring measurement equipment for different characterization efforts.
- Stage gate familiarity and file organization for it.
More about your success
While we have several years behind us and enjoy benefits and security beyond a normal startup, ours is still a startup environment. To thrive and excel here, you must take ownership of your role
and the product, and be accountable for the breadth of your responsibilities. The team is small, so visibility is high, but so is the opportunity to make an impact . . . and we're looking for people who are passionate about making a difference.
Your technical expertise and dedication to sound engineering principles will be critical, but in our small environment, your interpersonal and communication skills also will be essential. Additionally, you should be comfortable in a rapidly growing environment where ambiguity is the norm. You're entering on the ground floor, so you can still help shape product engineering processes and procedures and help us align our priorities moving forward. Flexibility and adaptability will be critical to your success.
This description is intended to give you a general overview of the position and is not an exhaustive listing of duties and responsibilities.
Pictured: The MM3100 device is a high power, normally open (NO), six-channel single pole/single throw (SPST) micro-mechanical switch for RF and microwave switch applications. Innovations in the switch material system enable robust and highly reliable switches capable of >25 W that are an ideal replacement for pin diode switches in high power radio applications.
