- Work closely with Product Engineering, Design Engineering, Test Engineering, Supply Chain, Quality, and OSAT partners to ensure successful product launch.
- Review and interpret assembly drawings, bill of materials (BOM), process flows, and product specifications.
- Evaluate package designs against manufacturing capabilities and design rules.
- Develop and continuously improve NPI processes to streamline product release and reduce cycle time.
- Support engineering builds, qualification runs, and production ramp activities.
- Drive root cause analysis and corrective actions for issues encountered during qualification and production.
- Collaborate with OSAT partners to resolve assembly, qualification, and yield-related challenges.
- Monitor key performance indicators including yield, quality, cycle time, and productivity.
- Stay informed of emerging semiconductor packaging technologies and manufacturing capabilities to support future product requirements.
- Support yield improvement and productivity enhancement activities for newly released products.
Requirements
Education:
Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Materials Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or other related Physical Sciences disciplines.
