Design Reliability Engineer

Job Description

Design Reliability Engineers provide project management and product development support for integrated circuits. In this position, you will be part of a Pre-Si QnR group in the area of circuit reliability validation and governance of SOCs and Hard IPs leading edge process technology nodes.

Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Translating technology requirements for circuits on leading edge process technologies into actionable design and product qualification requirements.
• Assess circuit risks associated with design/process marginalities on leading edge process technologies.
• Validation and governance of circuit reliability, analyzing design results and working with post-Si product qualification to ensure all over product reliability.
• Providing reliability risk assessments for a variety of circuits and products, considering scenarios, including, but not limited to, use conditions, new product features, performance enhancements.
• Coordinate and collaborate with Design, Product QnR, Technology Development and Back End Test for the product qualification.
• Working with process technology teams to identify and solve reliability roadblocks for pre-Si design and post-Si qualification milestones.

The ideal candidate should exhibit the following behavioral traits:

• Strong problem-solving skills.
• Ability to clearly articulate the thought process.
• Ability to interpret and analyze data.
• Strong communication skills.

Qualifications

You must possess the below minimum qualifications to be initially considered for this position.
