What to Expect
This role involves development of suppliers, processes, and packages for data center applications. The job involves communicating well with internal and external teams, traveling to suppliers in different regions, and supporting bring-up of design and process of a package.
What You’ll Do
Work with cross-functional teams and OSAT manufacturers on package development and lead resolutions to achieve mass production
Lead root cause analysis and permanent countermeasures with the manufacturer, cross functional team of Engineers, GSMs and QE with appropriate mitigation strategies
Work cross functionally with Design and Reliability Engineering team, to ensure package can meet the design requirements
Monitor the supplier’s yield very minutely and take appropriate actions to predict and resolve excursions
Audit, assess and oversee equipment performance & monitor implemented process controls at several suppliers
Assess Supplier’s PFMEA and manufacturing process controls and drive continuous improvement
Monitor Supplier Production Capacity (Operations management)
What You’ll Bring
Minimum 2-3 years of working experience with development, and high-volume manufacturing of large system in package (SiP) packages. Experience with overmold, large BGA packages is plus
In depth understanding of PCB materials, specifications, and reliability standards to improve supplier performance for incumbent and new PCB suppliers
Minimum 2 years of experience working with Surface-mount technology (SMT) and in-depth experience to resolve SMT process associated challenges
Experience driving OSATs as a customer. Clearly setting expectations on quality, schedule and ensuring timelines are met. Ensure quality spec alignment across 3 or 4 vendors
Deep knowledge of reliability failure modes, FMEA for process interactions especially for SMT components including power modules, inductors, and capacitors
