• When not already provided, initiate contact with customer or customer representative to identify specific failing conditions
• Oversee and direct initial bench level, system level, and ATE level analysis and interpret results
• Coordinate detailed component level analysis (electrical (EFA) and physical (PFA)) and interpret results

Manage Communication of Results with Manufacturing and Engineering Teams

• Review feedback/Corrective Action (CA) from various manufacturing areas
• Ask follow-up questions as necessary to provide an adequate customer response
• Translate results to a customer friendly format
• Analyze data from various sources for trends and variations
• Communicate the needed process improvements

Provide FA Reports to External Customers

• Summarize the RMA background and FA results
• Identify the root cause and potential improvements for use in reports
• Identify and provide containment information and associated risk assessment
• Generate both interim and final FA reports for customer consumption
• Provide customer support for ongoing questions/concerns related to the FA report

Maintain Knowledge of Device Capabilities and Characteristics

•             Understand the latest process technology

•             Recognize differences from previous technology nodes with the associated risks

•             Understand the datasheet specifications for each device

•             Stay up-to-date on common customer DRAM applications

•             Partner with field support teams to understand ongoing customer status

Education:

• Required: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical / Electronics/ Computer Engineering
• Desired: Master’s Degree in Electrical / Electronics/ Computer Engineering

Required Qualifications:

• 5+ years of experience in semiconductor field
• Knowledge of DRAM operation, fabrication process and semiconductor device physics
• Advanced understanding of electronic circuit.
• Basic understanding of DRAM/motherboard/CPU architecture and operation.
• Familiarity with failure analysis, troubleshooting/debugging, advanced packaging, wafer testing, component testing and module testing concept and flow.
• Good written and oral communication skills
• Self-confidence in speaking and chairing a meeting.
• Experienced in computer, laptop or server OEM and focus on system level debug or CPU or DRAM or SYSTEM FAE is a plus.
