    • Plan and execute prototype and qualification runs for embedded power modules, ensuring compliance with NPD phase-gate requirements.
    • Validate build integrity and maintain accurate documentation of process parameters and outcomes.
  • Advanced Embedded Packaging
    • Apply expertise in chip embedding, interposer integration, and thermal/electrical optimization for module development.
    • Perform process characterization and data analysis to optimize yield, reliability, and performance.
  • Failure Analysis & Issue Resolution
    • Conduct root-cause analysis for product issues and collaborate with design, process, and reliability teams to implement corrective actions.
    • Document lessons learned and integrate improvements into future builds.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration
    • Work closely with design, technology development, and manufacturing teams to ensure smooth transition from development to production.
    • Communicate status, risks, and mitigation plans proactively to global stakeholders.
  • Compliance & Release
    • Confirm qualification evidence meets internal standards before product release.
    • Support audits and maintain traceability of product engineering deliverables.
  • Bachelor’s degree in engineering (advanced degree preferred).
  • 10+ years in semiconductor product engineering with strong experience in power module development.
  • Proven expertise in power semiconductor technologies.
  • Familiarity with advanced embedded packaging technologies (e.g., chip embedding, interposer-based integration).
  • Strong skills in SPC, DOE, and data-driven problem solving.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills for global team environments.
  • Highly organized, self-motivated, and passionate about continuous improvement.
