About The Position

Texas Instruments is seeking an Electrical Failure Analysis (EFA) Engineer for its Lehi, Utah, LFAB facility. The role supports analysis of integrated circuits manufactured at the site’s 300mm, 65nm, 45nm, and 28nm analog and embedded wafer facilities. The engineer will investigate digital electrical failures by combining diagnosis results, layout analysis, and electrical isolation techniques to identify root causes. The work includes using ATPG-generated test vectors and scan diagnostics to isolate failure mechanisms and derive actionable insights. The position works closely with the failure analysis team, fab and advanced technology teams, and experts in design, assembly, and customer quality. The engineer manages failure analysis activities, develops expertise in analysis methods and equipment, and contributes technical consultation to other disciplines. Texas Instruments states it will not sponsor job applicants for visas or work authorization for this position.
