About The Position

Microchip Technology is seeking a Product Engineer for its growing Analog business. The role owns the full lifecycle of advanced linear and mixed-signal products, from early concept through high-volume manufacturing, and serves as a central technical owner connecting Design, Test, Applications, Quality, Operations, and business teams to drive product success. The engineer supports product quality, reliability, manufacturing readiness, validation, sustaining activities, and cross-functional project execution. The role also helps strengthen organizational execution by improving NPI practices, documentation, and knowledge sharing.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, Materials Science, or a related technical field; an advanced degree or equivalent experience is welcome.
• 5–7.5 years of experience in semiconductor product engineering or a closely related technical role, with familiarity across test, validation, design support, manufacturing, quality, applications, or operations.
• Solid understanding of analog, mixed-signal, or semiconductor product fundamentals, with the ability to learn new technologies and apply engineering judgment across the product lifecycle.
• Demonstrated ability to lead technical work, manage priorities, coordinate cross-functional teams, and advance projects in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, including interpreting data, identifying trends, isolating root causes, and recommending practical solutions.
• Hands-on experience with lab equipment, product debug, test data, validation, characterization, or manufacturing support.
• Ability to read and interpret datasheets, design specifications, test plans, qualification reports, and customer requirements.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain complex technical topics to technical and non-technical audiences.

Nice To Haves

• Familiarity with analog or mixed-signal semiconductor products, including amplifiers, data converters, power-management devices, sensors, interface products, and automotive or industrial ICs; product engineering experience is an advantage.
• Understanding of semiconductor test methodologies, including ATE testing, characterization, bench-to-production correlation, yield analysis, and test optimization; hands-on experience is an advantage.
• Familiarity with semiconductor manufacturing and product lifecycle processes, including reliability, qualification, failure analysis, wafer fabrication, assembly, final test, and product-change management; direct experience is an advantage.
• Knowledge of structured problem-solving and quality methodologies, including 8D, FMEA, SPC, PPAP, Six Sigma, root-cause analysis, and corrective-action systems; practical application is an advantage.
• Familiarity with engineering tools such as Excel, Power BI, JMP, Python, MATLAB, Jira, Confluence, LabVIEW, PCB-layout tools, or equivalent platforms; proficiency with one or more tools is an advantage.
• Understanding of project planning, risk management, and cross-functional execution within a product-development environment; experience leading technical deliverables is an advantage.
• Demonstrated ownership, collaboration, initiative, and a desire to grow into broader technical leadership responsibilities.

Responsibilities

• Support product quality, reliability, and manufacturing readiness.
• Work with Design, Test, Applications, Quality, Manufacturing, and Supply Chain teams throughout the product lifecycle.
• Analyze yield, reliability, failure-analysis, and customer-return data to identify improvements and reduce risk.
• Support released products through yield improvement, cost reduction, and customer issue resolution.
• Communicate technical results, recommendations, and risks to teams and leadership.
• Manage project schedules, milestones, deliverables, resource allocations, and risk mitigation across engineering and operations teams.
• Validate products through testing, characterization, data analysis, and debug.
• Identify process gaps, strengthen NPI practices, improve documentation, and share lessons learned across programs.
