Production Engineer – High-Speed Mixed-Signal ICs
About The Position
We are looking for a highly skilled and motivated Production Engineer with a strong background in mixed-signal semiconductor manufacturing to join our dynamic team. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in the production and testing of Analog and digital circuits, with a deep understanding of process optimization and quality assurance in advanced technology nodes. In this role, you will be responsible for managing manufacturing processes, improving yield and efficiency, and ensuring product performance and reliability from prototyping through high-volume production.
Requirements
Key Responsibilities:
1. Production Process Management
· Develop, implement, and continuously improve manufacturing processes for high-performance mixed-signal ICs.
· Collaborate with design, test, and quality engineering teams to ensure products meet all functional and performance specifications.
· Troubleshoot and resolve fabrication issues involving both Analog and digital circuit integration.
· Monitor production schedules, track progress, and ensure timely delivery of milestones.
2. Testing & Validation
· Oversee the testing and validation of mixed-signal devices, ensuring accurate functionality across Analog and digital domains.
· Drive debugging and root-cause analysis for yield and functional issues, ensuring production targets are met.
· Interface with the test engineering team to support the transition from prototype to volume production.
3. Process Improvement & Optimization
· Identify opportunities to improve manufacturing yield, reduce process variability, and minimize waste or defects.
· Conduct root cause analyses (RCA) for production-related failures and implement effective corrective and preventive actions.
· Optimize test flows, methodologies, and test times to enhance throughput and cost efficiency.
4. Cross-Functional Collaboration
· Work closely with design engineers to review product designs for manufacturability and yield robustness.
· Partner with quality assurance teams to ensure ongoing compliance with internal standards and customer requirements.
· Coordinate with supply chain and operations teams to ensure availability of critical materials and timely logistics.
5. Documentation & Reporting
· Maintain comprehensive documentation of process flows, testing procedures, validation results, and process changes.
· Track and report key production metrics, yield trends, and improvement initiatives to management.
· Ensure adherence to industry regulations and internal safety and manufacturing policies.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s degree in engineering or a related field
- Proven experience in mixed-signal IC production, preferably at advanced process nodes (e.g., 7nm, 5nm or below).
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with experience in statistical process control and yield analysis.
- Proficient in lab instrumentation and data analysis tools.
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to work effectively across cross-functional teams.
