Product Yield Enhancement (PYE) Engineer

Responsibilities

• Perform Electrical Failure Analysis (EFA) and fault isolation using emission microscopy, laser techniques, and PFA/de-processing methods
• Characterize and model backend test, internal qualification, and RMA fail signatures using layout, schematic, and data analysis tools
• Apply knowledge of CMOS fabrication and package assembly to identify process-related defects and root causes
• Evaluate reliability concerns and delayed breakdown failure mechanisms across test insertions
• Perform data extractions from fab, probe, and backend test systems to support failure analysis conclusions
• Generate organized failure analysis reports and present findings cross-functionally to Management, Product, and Quality teams

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Materials Science, Physics, or a related technical discipline
• 2+ years of experience in semiconductor failure analysis, yield enhancement, or a closely related field
• Hands-on experience with fault isolation techniques including emission microscopy and laser-based methods (OBIRCH/TIVA)
• Working knowledge of CMOS fabrication processes and package assembly flows
• Proficiency in reading and interpreting semiconductor layout and schematic designs
• Experience with Physical Failure Analysis (PFA) tools such as FIB, cross-section, and delayering
• Strong written and verbal communication skills for technical reporting

Preferred Qualifications

• Master's degree or Ph.D. in a related technical field
• 4+ years of experience in high-volume semiconductor manufacturing
• Experience with memory products such as DRAM, NAND, or HBM
• Advanced proficiency with photon emission, laser voltage probing (LVP), and thermal laser stimulation
• Familiarity with reliability failure modes like electromigration, TDDB, and HCI
• Experience with data analysis tools or scripting languages such as Python, JMP, or MATLAB
