Post-Silicon Product Engineer, Silicon Systems Group
22 hours ago
We are seeking a seasoned Senior Post-Silicon Product Engineer to lead and execute critical post-silicon validation, characterization, and production ramp activities for our advanced semiconductor products. This role demands a deep understanding of the semiconductor product lifecycle, from initial silicon bring-up to high-volume manufacturing, ensuring product performance, quality, and reliability meet the highest standards.
Our final product is a complete consumer electronics system, not just the silicon. As a Post-Silicon Product Engineer, you'll go beyond traditional product engineering boundaries to address system-level challenges—offering rich opportunities to understand and influence system architecture and end-user performance.
Key job responsibilities
Post-Silicon Validation & Characterization:
• Lead the bring-up and characterization of new silicon, ensuring functionality and performance meet design specifications.
• Develop and execute detailed validation plans, including defining test methodologies, coverage metrics, and corner conditions.
• Define and validate silicon and ATE-level test coverage, ensuring comprehensive validation aligned with customer application scenarios.
Data Analysis & Yield Improvement:
• Analyze data from WAT, wafer sort, ATE, and system-level tests to identify trends, anomalies, and systematic issues.
• Implement automation pipelines for data analysis across the test flow to improve traceability, root-cause identification, and feedback into design and test.
• Develop and implement strategies that align test environments and methodologies with defined yield, quality, and performance objectives.
• Apply advanced data analytics—including regression, correlation, and predictive modelling—to optimize test efficiency and drive yield improvements.
Test Development & Optimization:
• Collaborate with design and test engineering teams to develop and optimize test programs for wafer and package-level testing.
• Partner with ATE engineers to debug test failures, refine test coverage, and identify limitations in test hardware/software infrastructure.
• Lead test time reduction and cost optimization initiatives while maintaining required test coverage and quality standards.
Cross-Functional Collaboration:
• Collaborate with Design, SoC, DFT, Reliability, Quality, and Manufacturing teams to resolve silicon issues and support successful product ramp.
• Lead structured failure analysis and root cause investigations to address quality, reliability, and customer-return issues.
• Coordinate with cross-functional leaders to ensure alignment on key product KPIs such as yield, DPPM, quality escapes, and production readiness.
Documentation & Reporting:
• Generate comprehensive engineering reports detailing validation results, failure analyses, and recommended actions.
• Maintain accurate records of test methodologies, data analyses, and process changes.
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
• Minimum 8 years of experience in post-silicon validation, product engineering, or semiconductor development roles.
• Strong understanding of semiconductor testing methodologies, including ATE, wafer sort, and SLT.
• Hands-on experience with silicon bring-up, validation, characterization, and debug.
• Proficiency in data analysis tools such as JMP, Python, and SQL.
• Familiarity with statistical methods such as SPC, CPK, DOE, and other yield improvement methodologies.
• Strong problem-solving skills, including root cause analysis across silicon, package, and system levels.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to document complex technical findings clearly.
• Experience working in high-volume manufacturing environments, supporting NPI (New Product Introduction) to mass production transition.
• Experience with reliability testing standards (e.g., HTOL, HAST, TC) and failure analysis methodologies.
• Knowledge of wafer fabrication and packaging processes.
• Familiarity with defining test coverage for critical IP blocks and validating against customer use cases.
• Experience using AWS cloud tools — including Lambda functions, SageMaker, and QuickSight — for data analysis and automation.
• Exposure to system-level validation, including correlation between silicon behavior and system-level performance.
• Experience collaborating with SoC Design, DFT, Debug Leads, Reliability, and Quality teams.
• Strong understanding of customer RMA handling and product sustenance strategies.
• Experience with end-to-end product ownership from early silicon evaluation through to high-volume production.
