About the role

Failure Analysis Engineer focused on end-to-end failure analysis of advanced microprocessors, graphics processors, and heterogeneous integration products built on leading-edge 3nm FinFET and below technologies. Responsibilities include sample preparation, defect localization, material characterization, and collaboration with product, process, and manufacturing teams to improve yield and reliability.

Responsibilities

  • Investigate yield and reliability issues on advanced microprocessors, graphics processors, and heterogeneous integration products built on 3nm FinFET and below technologies.
  • Perform end-to-end failure analysis, advanced sample preparation, defect localization, and material characterization using state-of-the-art analytical techniques.
  • Work closely with product, process, and manufacturing teams to identify root causes of failures and drive continuous improvements in product quality, yield, and reliability.
  • Perform transistor nano-probing, electrical characterization using AFM, Electron Microscopy and Material Analysis.
  • Prepare high-quality site-specific TEM lamellae using focused ion beam techniques for structural, material, interface, and defect characterization.
  • Conduct plasma FIB sample preparation and yield failure analysis on advanced products including large-volume material removal, defect localization, cross-sectioning, and preparation for downstream analytical techniques.
  • Follow laboratory safety, EHS, operating procedures, and quality requirements, particularly when operating high-energy beam systems and handling chemicals during night shifts.
  • Support continuous improvement and automation initiatives to increase sample-preparation success rate, throughput, tool utilization, and turnaround time.

Qualifications

  • B.Eng in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics, Materials Engineering and related fields.
