Defines technology requirements and roadmaps, evaluation and qualification plans, and provides hands-on applications support as technology transitions from process R&D to product development.
Takes a leading role in advanced packaging technology problem solving, providing design and product enablement.
Serves as the internal principal investigator for new technology projects.
Capable of independent project management from concept phase through transfer to high-volume manufacturing, facilitating clear communication with external foundry & assembly collaborators, as well as internal design and validation teams throughout the project.
Performs risk assessment and help to coordinate cross-functional technology risk mitigation for multiple projects in parallel.
Key Qualifications:
Broad knowledge of advanced packaging, assembly and silicon process technologies, including thermal solutions, power delivery, and both electrical and optical communication
Experience with design of both serial and parallel interfaces both for chip-to-chip communication within module and for external module communication
Experience with parametric and yield data analysis. Proficiency with statistical data analysis tools
Experience with yield failure mechanisms and tools for root cause finding (EFA, PFA)
Experience with thermal and stress simulation tools
Exceptional data analysis, problem solving, and interpersonal skills
