Background in yield analysis, failure analysis, or process integration in semiconductor manufacturing.
Experience with statistics and data analytics, including yield modeling, SPC, DOE, and correlation analysis.
Experience with wafer sort testing, defect metrology, E test, and/or fab data systems.

Nice To Haves

Programming or scripting experience (Python, SQL, JMP, or similar) for large-scale data analysis, including machine learning or AI.
Ability to lead structured problem solving and drive cross-team alignment.
Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Familiarity with defect metrology, inline monitoring, and yield excursion management.
Experience supporting NPI ramps and HVM yield sustainment in a factory environment.
Results-driven approach with a strong sense of ownership and accountability.
Comfort operating in a fast-paced manufacturing environment with shifting priorities.
Ability to influence without authority and align diverse stakeholders around data-backed conclusions.
Commitment to safety, quality, and continuous improvement.

Responsibilities

Conduct yield analysis and failure investigations to identify root causes and recommend solutions that improve manufacturing yields and reliability.
Analyze end-of-line test data, process parameters, and electrical measurements using statistical tools; extract insights and perform correlation calculations.
Develop and implement advanced characterization and analysis techniques to improve the efficiency and precision of failure analysis.
Perform electrical failure analysis (EFA) for complex yield limiters across product development and high-volume manufacturing phases.
Collaborate across teams to segment issues related to process, test marginalities, and product operation.
Support process and defect characterization and develop techniques to accelerate failure identification and root cause understanding.
