Reliability Hardware Design Engineer

onsemi•San Jose, CA

About The Position

Job Summary: onsemi is seeking a self-driven and motivated professional to join our Reliability team. As a Staff Reliability engineer, you will have the opportunity of leading the Reliability Hardware Design, HTOL/THB/HAST BI validation, qualifications of new products and advanced technologies, participating in a broad range of reliability activities in a highly dynamic working environment. You will be part of multidisciplinary teams to develop innovative products at a high-quality level. Performance Objectives The engineer is coordinating with Design and PE to be responsible for Reliability Hardware Design, HTOL/THB/bHAST BI Vector Validation, and lead the external Rel lab Qual execution. For NPD projects, the engineer is to work with Design, Technology, PI, PE, TE, and PKG to develop, to document and to execute the reliability strategy & Qual plan and qualification execution. Participate weekly NPD meetings with cross functional teams. For building-in reliability & quality into NPD products, the reliability engineer gets involved in technology & package development, design of experiments (DOE), material and process characterization & validation & reliability evaluation & process and product qualifications… Results from these DOEs & process characterization & reliability evaluation will be employed to improve the quality and reliability of products. In case of failures happening during Qual stress tests, the engineer needs to perform 1st level reject disposition teamwork with Product Engineers for FA and root cause analysis and request corrective or preventive actions if applicable. Work closely with PE and TE to review the NPD test program development to ensure Test Quality in NPD process & release Participate in Product Validation Process and provide engineering inputs to improve NPD Quality & Reliability Lead the Qualification Readiness Check in the cross-functional areas Be responsible for working with PE on drift analysis of the Qualification tests, and electrical data analysis of the qualification rejects The job requires the engineer to participate in assessment of Qual Material Readiness and Test program readiness required to release qualification materials into qualification process. The engineer should write clear and complete Qual readiness reports and risk assessments, and reliability qualification reports. Good communication & interpersonal skills to support both internal and external customers. Operate effectively in a team environment while contributing to the team's success
